New (Used) Escalade owner

[Nbs]

Just bought an 04 Escalade last night and am ready to start modifying it!

I was thinking of doing just a synthetic oil change and coolant flush and then try to start working on some performance mods. Does anybody recommend any other maintenance before I begin?

Budget isn't crazy and as of right now all I can think of is an Intake, e-fans, and a tune. That should make a noticeable difference I believe and not break the bank.

In all honesty I would plan on supercharging it next summer but thats not for about a year and a half so as of right now just what I have listed will be done.

Congrats on the buy, for intake and efans you can find them in the for sale section right now. That should start you off.

These are the following steps i did

Stage1 - Cold Air Intake, Exhaust, Long Tube Headers, NO Cats, Corvette Servo/ Billet 4th Servo And Custom Live Tune

Stage 2 - Cammed, Valve Springs, LS2 Timing Chain,hardened pushrods, Supercharger

Stage 3 - (Current)- Built Transmission (4L80), Billet Converter, Built Rear End ( Gears, and Truetrac)

all depends what you want to do and how much money you got...

Wondering how much each of those "stages" cost you and what kind of a difference it made?
