SS TITANIC Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 I KNOW THIS IS A COMMON QUESTION but what are the best and biggest bang for the buck mods to do? I just ordered my 06 SSS and already want to mod it as soon as it gets here. What should i expect it to run in the 1320? and what would i need to get in to the 13s with out spending a ton of cash? THANKS MIKE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FuelSlut Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 itll cost more, seeing as how you will have some traction issues... cold air (your brand of choice), pcm tune, thermostat, a good exhaust system (brand of choice once again).... good luck and enjoy! not sure what a stock 2wd does in the quarter....

Jonmalibuss Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 I have seen 15.1 printed a few places for a stock time in the quarter but I belive that is under near perfect conditions. I ran my VHO stock and was only able to achieve a 15.4 and after minor changes in the tune ran 15.2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenKey Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 Biggest bang for the buck and for sure 13s - N2O. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z06 DREAMING Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 Biggest bang for the buck and for sure 13s - N2O. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> , Deezel is in solid 13s with a few mods and cold-fusion nitrous. I should be too with my kit but I just haven't ran on a track yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my advice, but Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SS TITANIC Posted October 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2005 Cold air intake, 160 tstat,and pcm tune, how much will that improve performance? can i add other mods after the tune such as cam and rockers and exhaust without a retune? Brian at pcm4less sounds like a good guy or zippy? Ilive in MI so any help would be great? thanks, mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenKey Posted October 26, 2005 Report Share Posted October 26, 2005 Those mods will provide decent performance gains. Chances are if you add a cam you'll "have" to get a re-tune - depending on how large you go. Exhaust pieces, like headers, the tuning may not be required, but in order take full advantage of it you need to adjust it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zippy Posted October 28, 2005 Report Share Posted October 28, 2005 my suggestions for modifications. first thing is to buy some tuning software and a thermostat. even if you don't have the knowledge to tune yourself you can usually get someone to send you a tune to use or get alot of help on what to do with yours. the way to getting the most out of your truck is in the programming, especially with the transmission being involved as well as engine on these trucks. second i'd get a torque converter and shift kit installed in there. third and fourth mods would be cold air intake and exhaust. with these mods alone you should be able to run a very low 14 on the stock tires. at that point you're a camshaft away from 13's.

thomp62301 Posted November 1, 2005 Report Share Posted November 1, 2005 A little N2O and 150 jets will definitly get you in the low 13's. Keep a eye on the tranny though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
