I need some suggestions!!!

Timecode · 07-03-2008, 11:58 AM

I have saved up some cash

to make my next purchase for my truck. I've been reading many threads on this awesome forum and have narrowed it down to these items.

ICEBOX CAI
Aeroturbine 4040xl
TS Shiftmaster
MP-8
Goerend VB

Now mind you at this time I can only purchase one of these things, and not sure when I can add another since there is a baby on the way.

I would appreciate any suggestions on what I should get next and why.

Thanks Everyone.
Scott

First thing is to open up the exhaust so she can breath.

Alright, I ordered the muffler, got an MP-8, making a willys whistler.

So it should be sounding good.

Gauges are next and soon. I think I am going to go with a new trans in about a year. If it will last that long.
