    Looks like its been awhile since I've put anything I here... Probably because I haven't done anything to my truck since feb 2012 ha ha.

    What I have done that hasn't been posted is relatively anticlimactic though. Other than the mirrors and wheels my truck is just the way I want it... On the outside. Obviously I want to get to the the turbo and the injectors, but seeing how I just dropped the fully built transmission in there that's a pretty big step in that direction. So most of my mods will be pretty small until my tires wear out, the. I'm doing a full wheel and tire upgrade. All I did today was strip, and re shoot the tint on my tails. And swap my KCs for the Hellas off my wheeler. And last weekend I did a full led bulb swap on everything inside the truck except for the instrument cluster.

    Picked up a CAI on CL, made by bills custom intake. From what I read its better than stock, but only as good as as tymar intake, or just the standard tube and filter deal. Got me 1 extra pound of boost though. It was only $160 so I can't complain. I also popped the red vacuum line off of the waste gate, I guess it's like a vacuum assist to help it open. Stays shut a lot longer now, spools much quicker and gets me up to 29-30 lbs. I don't notice much difference so I plug it back in to save the turbo until I upgrade the housing. with the intake my turbo surge is waaaay louder so I may have to address that sooner than later, I'm probably going to go with an ATS ported housing and a wicked wheel. The wicked wheel doesn't do much stacked with the housing, but it will whistle nice... I love the whistle.

    A whole extra pound of boost doesn't seem bad at all. Looks like a nice intake too. :peace:

    Thanks man! It's not too shabby for what it is. Just drove 100 miles to the ocean, all freeway, and my turbo surge is BAD. Going to order a new housing when I get back.
