Default Installed the mods on my 6.2! Pics..

Ordered the SCT X3 and AFE stage 2 from Mike@5Star. Also, ordered the Corsa cat back system from Autoplicity.com. Recieved all mods in less than a week and installed everything by myself last Saturday night in about 2.5 hours start to finish. Hardest part was removing the stock exhaust by myself. Ended up lifting the body of the truck up and made some room between the body and the axle to get it out. Piece of cake after that.

Results are incredible! Went from stock to all of the mods listed above and am totally satisfied with the results! The torque, throttle response, shifting and just plain additional horsepower was well worth the money. Im currently using the 87 performance tune and will be trying the 93 performance tune later.

Just go to their website and call the number. I called yesterday and talked for a good 20 minutes with him about these tuners.

It will definitely get up and go! I feel like im driving a sportscar now considering I use to drive a jacked up Duramax diesel. I will be taking it to the local track pretty soon to test her out. Im curious to see if I can break into the high 13's. I'll post results and video when I do.

www.5startuning.com Talk with Mike. I got the 87 performance, 87 economy and 93 performance tunes. Only tried the 87 performance so far...

So how do you like the sound of your exhaust?

I bet you will run low 14's at the least.

Let us know how you do.
