    newbie from Hot Springs, Arkansas

    I am new here and just bought last monday an 03 RST rcss. I love the truck and I am ready to make it go fast. How should I start without any MAJOR mods. I have heard alot about a nelson tune. Any believers on nelson.
    I just recently had a guy come to me with a 1987 Buick Grand National that Had 1,200 miles on the build and 62k miles on the car. All forged bottom end, Street elim alum heads that had abt 3500 dollars worth of work in them. 3" down pipe, precison turbo 25-30 lbs of boost 6:1 wheel. F.A.S.T Computer system to run it and much much more. By the way the car is CLEAN as hell. I dont think the guy knew what he had. BTW I had to trade my 03 regency for the car. Did I come out on top or bottom?

    Welcome to LS1truck! Yeah, I am with everyone else--we need pics!
    As for minor mods for your truck, do a Nelson tune. Your RST should already have a CAI and exhaust, so those mods are already out of the way... You could also do e-fans or pulleys.
