For exhaust, intake should straight piped with a 3" tube and a good DRY element. Nothing charged with oil, like a K&N.

The less restrictive rear cats offed and straight piped followed up by a good exhaust, -straight through design then tailpipe.


Just adding a TP helped it out, - that's great! You must be set up correctly ie intake and everything before the TP. I think you are.

 

Right before it blew I was getting 14 city and 17-18 highway depending on how I was driving. The stock tires were 255/70/r16 but when I had them replaced last i had 265/70/r16's put on. So technically no, not factory size but in actuality they're barely bigger.

 

I used to put Nitrogen in my tires instead of regular air, I don't know if they still offer it. Nitrogen is a lighter gas than regular air so that can contribute to having lighter tires.

 

BWahahahaha

 

I am not spending too much money on the stock setup but I made the kit myself, after having the duals and rear bumper smashed.
Factory midpipes y-piped into a single 3.5. A little big for the current setup but room to grow

No, not true. Nitrogen makes up 71% of the air you and I breathe. It's the gas responsible for the blue hue of the sky. The main reason it is put in tires is because the molecules are bigger than the other elements that are in the air making it less prone to coming out of the tires over a period of time and it is more stable when the temps drop/rise. When "normal" air is put in a tire, the smaller molecules tend to leak out over time. A true nitrogen inflation will purge the air out of the tires and remove all other gasses so that there is nothing but nitrogen in the tire.

But no, nitrogen is not added to tires to make them lighter.
