BlackSS04 Posted August 19, 2006 Report Share Posted August 19, 2006 I am pretty much a SSS newbie and am stock except for a K&N drop-in. I am going to be putting some serious bills into the truck when I get back from work in november and have plans on some mods already. These are the mods that I am planning on getting: -Corsa Sport W/Pacsetter Long Tubes -Precision EZ solid Billet Grill -Volent Cold Air Intake -Zippy Shift Kit -BSER Roll Pan -Gaylords Speedsturr Wing Lid -Goodmark Cowl Hood And when all said and done, a PCM tune from Bryan If you guys can give me any suggestions on a better product than the ones I am getting, that would be great. P.S. I would like to increase HP as much as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackSS04 Posted August 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2006 I was also wondering if I should get my tune after the exhaust, intake, and shift kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misterp Posted August 19, 2006 Report Share Posted August 19, 2006 Good plan I would add the Vette 2nd servo and optionally a billet 4th servo. Also a Trailblazer torque converter and larger tranny cooler. All that together will really give the truck a bit more snap. Yes, after installing tranny and exhaust mods you will need a PCM retune, if at all possible I would do both the tranny and exhaust work at the same time, that way you save $$$ avoiding multiple PCM tuning.

BlackSS04 Posted August 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2006 Thanks, that helped alot. and what exactly does a corvette servo do. I am knew to this so I have no idea what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misterp Posted August 19, 2006 Report Share Posted August 19, 2006 The 2nd apply servo is the part in the tranny that applies the 2nd gear friction band; the servo piston from the Corvette is a direct replacement and will hold the 2nd friction band with much more force than the original; note that this change alone does not make for a faster/quicker shift, but more clamping pressure. When you combine a Vette servo with a shift improver kit which has been calibrated to delive a faster shift then you get improved reliability (less friction material slippage), faster track times, and a much more 'authoritative' shift above 1/2-throttle.
