If you could go back in time when your truck only had 63K miles
other then upgrading to the quad my truck is done performance wise. My goals were 400+hp mpg tow rig. The list I used is as fallows in the order I installed. 4" TBE with muffler. ( dad has 5" TBE no muffler, it sounds good but the drone drives us insane on long trips) BHAF Pyro, FP, Trans Temp, Boost Gauges. GDP fuel boss, Superchips 60hp programmer Transmission upgraded, (after it started slipping) DaP 100hp VCO injectors, ARP studs ( not necessary but I didn't know what turbo I was going to go with and wanted to be safe.) BD super B turbo. [ now days I would have gone with a SX-E ] (but wasn't available at the time) I will be replacing the superchips with the quad in the future. I am upgrading my suspension and steering before I upgrade for more hp. Right now I would guess I am around 325hp and once I upgrade I am guessing I will be around 425HP.

Installed a Nations alternator - results
TC didn't act up one bit. funny part is I talked to several shops and they all wanted to put a noise filter on. I said it didnt need it for 18 years I want to find the real issue not mask it...

Alternator installed. I had to make the ground loop hole bigger to fit over the bigger stud on the new alternator. but otherwise when on great. My TC issue seems to be fixed now. I will be taking the truck on a 100 mile trip tomorrow morning to town to get the tabs for the motorcycle and drop the tax paperwork off.

SUV talk...go
you mean the engine that is built in the usa but not allowed to be sold in a vehicle in the usa. the epa is so full of bull. I have been on the same search for years. its a case of pick and choose what you can live with and without. The Subaru are really nice, honda, and toyota make good stuff, nissan and mazda are barley still in business in my book.

So if my truck has never had high idle ever the quad can add that correct? or is smarty and the dealer still the only way to do that?
-
Quadzilla Adrenaline V2 Testing
may seem like a dumb question and probably been stated before but when you go to buy the quad it asks what tune you want loaded. cant I just change the tune later if I pick the wrong one?

Big line kit?
I have looked at similar kits. And I will be ordering one in the future. I currently have a GDP fuel boss pump. I will be replacing the line between the fuel filter and the vp44 and the line going from the tank to the fuel boss. the rest of the lines have been replaced. Lose that restrictive line from the fuel filter housing to the injection pump and let your fuel system flow at it's full potential! The GDP Big Line Kit is an excellent addition to our GFS Performance fuel systems. Gain 2-3 psi right where you need it, at the injection pump inlet! The factory hard line from the fuel filter to the injection pump is less than 1/4" in diameter.

Headlight options
I have been thinking about trying to find some whiter not brighter 9007 bulbs for my headlights. I like the way my aftermarket lights look but the fitmint is garbage. I wish someone made a good one piece sport light and then I would order the Brite box from Geno's. But that would still put me back to square one with wanting a whiter not brighter light.

Help, Not starting
You can thank Kroger for a tank full of water most likely. I only get fuel from high volume locations (like truck stops). Or you might be geled up. What have the temperatures been outside?

Power lock

Ever been to south Carolina?
I lived for 16 years just south of Charleston about 3 hours in Brunswick, Ga. I would visit Charleston a couple of times each year. The areas were very alike. No more wood chopping. You can ride motorcycle year around. Beaches are nice. Very pro 2nd amendment. I know in GA no class required to get my carry permit. Cost of living is no longer any cheaper in any part of the country, its all based on location in proximity to a metropolitan vs backwoods area. You can't beat southern hospitality. If my job hadn't of relocated me to MN 3 years ago I would have stayed. Now I am sorta regretting fallowing the money. Granted I am making more then I ever have in my life. But I am not home much, I never get to see my friends. Its a big decision. Not all that glitters is gold. You have a long pros and cons list to lay out and figure out. I wish you wise guidance and direction in your choices. This is a picture from Charleston
