And by the time you get everything you want and are some what happy the new models are out and then your truck is old and you need to start all over again.

 

See that's the problem I'm hoping to avoid. I have about $10k in mods right now so I have to hold onto this truck for several years because no way I could afford to buy a new one in 09 and start modding all over again.

 

I agree but the looks of the 09 models arent that big of a change. I think im going to hold on to the truck and just get a new car but not for a long time. The wife gets the next new truck next year.

 

I'm scheduled for Wednesday the 5th for 5 dyno runs for 150 bucks! going to see the before and after of what I have now and then a tune up and underdrive pulley installed. I'll keep an update!

 

good luck with the dyno-keep us posted

 

Back with the results...first result ( this is with AF1, Magnaflow SI/DO exhaust and XCal2 Custom tuned ) 124.3HP and 187.6TQ
Did tune up and installed underdrive pulley ( note: spark plugs were nasty ) result: 163.5HP and 219.4TQ
