Yea I know I don't have something built for speed but if I can get a little better it would help. I used the 100 dollar reference to see what was available for cheaper. Mainly looking for ideas to just work on my truck making it better all around haven't done much performance enhancement work on vehicles only had it a few months and looking for good direction. Thanks for the info anything is appreciated.

Tuner, exhaust and cold air intake will be your best bet then as Bucko mentioned. Tons of info on the subject if you search. I have a Gryphon tuner from PHP www.powerhungryperformance.com. Love it, that is the easiest thing you can do to wake your truck up. Gunna run you around $400.

Cut weight, simplest and cheapest way, lower the weight you'll have better power to weight ratio.

Just finished the gotts mod really simple and only ran me 17 bucks and 45 minutes time.
