Welcome to DTR. Watch out for that slope off to your left, it's kinda slippery.

It's kinda like cresting the hill on a roller coaster, scarry and thrilling all at the same time, but no stopping it once you start down!!!
Welcome

Money is something that we all need. But at least you bought the right truck, you can do alot of things on the cheap that the newer trucks can't without spending money. There are lots of threads where you'll learn how to do performance improvements cheap.

All you new guys are welcome here for sure. This is a fun place to show off your ride. Fill out the signature so we know what you got. Post pictures and have fun. Oh, don't be afraid of the slippery slope. It is just like anything else. Once you start, you can't stop loving it. Speed cost money...........

Welcome aboard - Bought my truck new in Jan. 1993 and I've been bombing ever since. Started with the Banks and the only thing left is the 14cm hotside. Your journey has just begun so has the fun.

Bob

Did your Banks system come with Gauges?

That is were you should start, if you don't have them!
at least a boost and a pyro Gauge.
