Thumbs up two words...

Troyer Performance. Type that in your web browser...
or
try browsing in the computer chips section here....
or
in this forums search feature, type in micro tuner.....

I started with a straight pipe replacing the muffler..... then went with a Superchips Micro Tuner 1715 (set on 93 octane performance).

Before mods it shifted horribly slow from first to second and wouldn't even chirp the rear tires. Best MPG ever was 15.2

Now it will spin both 285's for over 10 feet, shifts fast and tight and has a best MPG 17.1



Good luck and welcome to the site

Hey where in Missouri are you?
The first mods usually include:
-intake
-tuner
-exhaust
-pulleys
-tranny shift kit

you can go up from there, but it gets expensive

If you want the best bang for the buck. Its Nitrous, I'm not saying to go and spray. But it is the best bang for the buck.

Agreed, But it would start to get expensive if you're spraying the entire time your in the truck!! Get blown constant power and no refilling... well maybe some petro!
