Corsa catback. Mine droned too much with 3 other setups.
If you want to keep the cats, go with a Dynatech LT setup that includes cats. Cam...go big. These 6.0s eat a cam up.

hye guys just picked up my truck last night. i love this thing. just drivin around is awsome in it. put the billet grill on and a billet bowtie. looks really slick with the graystone colour of the body. also debadged everything but the vmax on the sides. dealer filled my truck up with 87 so im kinda choked bout that. wanna get through this so i can filler with the 92. its really temping to just punch it all the time but im tryin to break it in at least a little. i think the 87 is crap cause i notice a huge dropoff in pull when i shift to third. feels different. other than that i love this truck and cant wait to get the cai and tune. then exhaust when i find the one i want. later.
That drop @ the shifts is the Torque Management. You need a custom tune to make it right.

Anyone running 3" drop in the rear (I am using Belltech leafs, but I don't think that matters in this case) and running, say, 305/50/20 tires?
I need more rubber on the road, and was thinking this would help. Oh, on Gibbs wheels too, so that should be the same as stock SSers. I think Berserker is going with 315's, but I am pretty sure that is a custom or aftermarket wheel that is wider and backspaced accordingly.
I am only planning on running those on the rear. Going for a Redneck with mud grips raked look.
Thanks in advance guys,
S.C.

I would use the Belltech 3" drop springs. That gives it a sweet look.
Then sway bar.

Bullets sold!! Tip still available.

OMFG I just noticed those dumbo mirrors
was there a 5th wheel in the bed under that tonneau?
I didn't know the VHO came in Blue. If it does, I am seriously pissed at myself.

You using t-bar style clamps on piping? I would start with double checking all your boost side piping first.

why was this only on your truck for a day?
I have a Magnaflow dual 3" I/O muffler, and added these to get rid of the drone. Short story, I didn't like it enough, so I am going Corsa.

Magnaflow tip, single 3" in with dual stainless polished tips out. These are like $200 + at Magnaflows website. A few light scuffs in the stainless, but can be polished to perfection pretty easily. $65 shipped.

I don't drive it like a 4x4 over rough road because it's really bad for all of your suspension components.
Honestly I don't either. It was going down I-35 which is one of two main N/S highways in Texas. Been down it 1,000,000 times with no issues. They had just paved a new section and I missed it.
Guess I have to pay more attention now.

You may feel like you are bottoming out because of the bump stop, bolt them to the frame. There was a how to on this.
Ahh...found it in Mr. P's write up. Thanks kaotik, and you to Mr. P.
FWIW - I installed IAS shocks in the rear (for a drop of course).

Does anyting like like fuel pump or injectors have to be changed when installing a procharger?
It comes with a FMU, but most everyone dumps that for larger injectors, better in-tank fuel pump & custom tune.

I am using the Belltech leafs in the back with the supplied soft bumpstops. It is a little rough in the back still. How can you run no bumps at all? You must have great roads in Cali. I was driving 70 down the highway here in Texas and hit a dip (new road section) and it bottomed out hard.
do you relocate them higher?

Off my '04 1/2 ton.
$40 shipped OBO
They are $48 at Summit.

They come with the 14 bolt rear end.
All you '05 & '06 guys are lucky...the '04s all got saddled with the 10 bolt.
That's okay, I will still throw everything I got at it anyway!!

Big pry bar should move it enough to clear.
Did that made it worse
I don't understand. I think there is something incorrectly spelled there. I see 2 possible questions:
1. Did that make it worse? No, it fixed mine.
2. Dude that made it worse. I don't know why. If you pry apart the two pieces hitting, it should work.

wow guy's those times are better then what i expected!
my truck is a 06 v-max 2 wheel drive with 4.10's so it might be possible to hit high 14's on a good day?.. a few mods and i should be able to hit mid 14's right?... i thought it was good for at best a low 15.. but good news is always appreciated
i think i'll take my truck to the track and see what happens i'll post back on friday night
N/A Cam, headers, tune & exhaust got me 14.1 @ 98. 3.73 gears though. Good luck & post up the results from the track.
