    What to buy for 07 silverado...

    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.

    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.

    God created turbo lag so nitrous trucks could have a chance.

    +1 on dumping the Edge. I have (had) an Edge and since my Nelson tune it's just become a performance monitor. The computer tune is sooooooo much sweeter. 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!!!
