MUCH better without the graphics, James. Before it was like your truck was marked with an X on the door as if it had been affected by the plague lol. Might have worked as a good thief deterrent

Very nice work on the wheels, definitely gives it a one-of-a-kind look. Removing the decals on the bed and either leaving them off or getting some custom ones to fit your theme a bit better might look cool too!

Very nice. What grill is that and how is the install process? I have been eyeballing one for awhile now.

It's just black billet upper and lower grills off of eBay to install i had to cut out the the stock grill and screw in the new it was easy for me but it wasn't the easiest job takes a lot of patience to get it centered and keep it there

did you notice a difference with the throttle body, intake/manifold and tune?


did you do the tune first, then the add-ons or all at once

Tredyon

I did all of it at once and then updated the tune when I got the bigger sized tires. Sound wise you notice a difference with a whistling sound similar to if you had installed a spacer, and much more air noise ( which is good to me). Performance wise the big places I noticed a difference where in the throttle response and in the higher RPM range. The throttle response is very aggressive, when you put your foot on the pedal the response is almost immediate. With this particular set up most of the gains you see are in the higher Rpm range (I live in the city, so I'm more prone to the higher RPM range where I can experience such gains, but when I travel in small towns where you don't go any faster than 35 MPH you can feel it being a little sluggish on the lower RPM range.)The downside is This set up is known to cause a lack of low RPM torque, so to counter that I added bigger gears (which also helped when I installed the new Tires). Also with the tune you get a firmer shift ( I'm running the firmest shifting available, and I still wish it could be a little more firm.)
