Welcome to the DTR !!!! Don't be shy ... ask away. There is LOTS of knowledge in here and these guys aren't afraid to share it.

Keep your trucks vital statistics up to date in the signature block and it makes things much easier.

Welcome and Merry Christmas,

It's my pot and I'll stir it if I want to. If you're not careful, I'll stir your's as well!

You do NOT know what you are asking!!!!!! You need to be extra foolish (or fuelish) with VERY deep pockets if you want any of this bunch to help you. Before you know it, you will have umpteen upgrades recommended and you will want every one of them. Even drool a bit. Want to take a guess as to what is then going to happen to your bank account? Not quite sure of the equation, but it is something like: 'The faster your truck the faster the money flies out of your bank account'.
Naturally every upgrade or mod you do will be essential. A must have ....!
BTW, welcome to DTR.

Making my wish list. But my pockets arn't deep enough. Pyro, boost, gauge pod and K&N (need to see what is going on before I change much more) is next on my list. Just drilled 4" holes in my factory air box. I will fab a new air box when it gets warmer. Talked to my neighbor and will be fabin a new front bumper next week.

no K&N

Do a search. You will not want a K&N filter.
