noob to mods needs some advice

[denali7432]

hey guys im tony, i need some advice, im making a switch from going from big chrome wheels and loud sound systems to compete with to performance mods, i have a 2002 yukon denali awd 6.0L, i just threw on a corsa exhaust, gibson headers, k&n air intake kit, and a 91 octane tune using a superchips hand held scanner, but i want more..lol a friend from work said my next mods should be something along the lines of heads, cam, and a real air intake kit? what do you guys think? budget just for parts is $2500

no opinions or suggestions?

We need a little more info. What are you doing with your truck? What are your goals?

With that said cam, converter, gears, and get rid of your superchips and look into Black Bear Performance. You should be able to do at least two of them for said budget.

can you explain what you mean by at least two of them? my truck is a daily driver, about 60 miles per day back and forth to work..currently sitting on a 26'' chrome wheels that i take off in the winter time to throw my factory 17'' wheels on, lot of weight in the back, i have 3 18'' subs and a huge box, so i have alot of weight holding me back, but it still flys considering the huge tires and weight, my ultimate goal is to add a super charger, but thats years down the road, for now id like to go far as i can without having to get a built tranny. this year will be the last year i keep the chrome rims on, i will be leaving the factory 17'' wheels next year, more interested in hp and speed over flashy look at me toys..lol

Lose the 26's and the subs if you want more speed.......as mentioned above-get a Blackbear tune. Since you already have exhaust,intake, and headers I'd say a cam. But then look into beefing up the driveline cuz it ain't gonna last....

I mean you could afford at least two of the mods with the budget you set, you might be able to do all that I stated with a little research and negotiation.

If you want more buy a used Radix and get a real tune... your drivability will be great and you will be adding about an extra 100-120 RWHP. H/C setups are great but not something that is going to be fun to drive daily.
