    Newbie From Missoula Montana

    Gibson Extreme Duals Cat Back Exhaust

    Welcome to LS1truck! One of the best things you can do to that truck is to get a custom tune. Handheld programmer/chip...those are CRAP compared to a tune.

    P.S. Ducky--WE DON'T CARE.

    I would just like it so i can just drive it every day and have to mess with the tune.I'm probably not going to mess with the motor at all.May a CAI but that would be it. I keep getting told not to cause its just a stock truck. What do you guys think?
