Whats goin on guys im kinda new in here, ive got a 2007 Silverado Z71 2WD, its a RCSB and ive got a 2.5" leveling kit, i run royal purple synthetic in the motor and soon will be using in trans and rear, i just ordered the new edge evolution and i plan on doing a few more things, what mods are the best for horsepower? i would love to turbo it but i dont know about voiding that warranty
2wd Z71? ? ? ?? ? First take the z71 sticker off. Then rear end, tranny from finish line transmissions, turbo from trick performance, tune from nelson performance, Lots of little things not mentioned.
yeah i know. they started it in these new body styles, its the z71 package, without the 4x4, now they have z71 badges, for the 2wd, and the 4x4s say z71 with 4x4 under it, i dont like it but whatever. how much is all that gonna run me? im not loaded rich lol
you said warranty, what is that? Cancel the edge and get a nelson tune, the leveling kit. Is it up or down. Cold air intake, headers, and exhaust and the tune.
warranty. i know yes. whats a nelson tune? leveling kit is up. cold air was gonna be next, then magnaflow exhaust, headers in the future.Quote:

I would recommend starting with the sticky at the front of this forum that talks about 100 hp gain on a budget. I just went turbo and am loving every second of it!!!
okay thanks! are yall running these turbos on stock blocks? or built?
Stock block 8psi. I plan to eventually buy a forged motor and pumping up the boost to 16lbs. Similar to this link

This truck is also turboed check it out.
My turbo is also on a stock 5.3 block...no vids yet though.
Ditch the royal purple too. It doesn't make a good DD motor oil. There rear end fluid is ok from what I have heard though.
