First Things You Would Do To a 6.2 Escalade?

[mattluttrell]

I'm hopefully purchasing a 99k mile 2007 Escalade (if he resolves title issues).

It is AWD and has no piston slap or oil pressure issues. It needs driver motor mount. Otherwise it is cleaner than my previous 2015 Tahoe.

I plan on doing fluids everywhere. Maybe plugs, wires and MAF cleaner.

My next step is maybe long tube headers and black bear tune.

Should I consider anything else for easy performance help?

I bought mine a month ago and i changed plugs (AC delcos) & wires (taylor), airrade intake tube and K&N drop in-filter, 180 Tstat, Oil catch can, fuel pressure gauge on motor, Regounded/ added grounds through out my escy, Volt metter on dash, tune, LED PKG lights, superwhite halogen DRL's, and lowered it 2.5/5 rear. I know iv done more. I just cant remember now...

Thanks for the pictures and response! I'm certain on a full fluid change. I need to read more on catch cans. Catch cans were a common fix on my BMW with a CCV problem. Replacing the system was cheap and easy for me instead of catch cans. I try to keep a stock appearance when possible.

Catch can might be improvement though...

Is that a GReddy catch can? I have one from my old SRT4 that I was thinking of mounting. Did you make the bracket?

I believe it is. i bought it off ebay. they come without anything to separate the oil and air inside so after alot of research i made my own baffle inside.
