    Haha yeah definitely sound great at low revs, I should have made a video of my driving around streets instead of a highway.

    You roast your tires easily because they're so skinny! But I wasn't floored in the turn either.

    I was flooring it the whole way, but I was going uphill and I need to add air to my tires. You also have to remember I have steelies ;)

    Ebay. It was like $58.13 or something. Cost $30 to get it installed.

    Huh? This whole post confused me haha

    How would your truck be heavier? You have sliders, but I have steelies and 33x12.50's.

    As for the rest of the post, I have no idea what you mean haha it's too late at night for me :eek:

    Haha well considering I already want mid-travel, 35's, and full armor you can kiss my power goodbye! I'm still happy with the power, still WAY better than a 2.7 with 33's! I still get around 17mpg so I'm happy.

    Haha the cat is still there. The cats are before the muffler. I had my exhaust cut off from the stock muffler all the way back. Then had the Magnaflow installed with a turndown after it to point the exhaust toward the ground.

    Haha I need to change my fuel filter, change the spark plugs, and I'll probably clean the throttle body just to see.

    Realistically I'm only getting about 14 right now because I drive and average of 2-4 miles a day. But on the highway I get pretty good mileage.

    What are you talking about, nobody made you take a video! :p I'm getting horrible gas mileage because of the muffler now! Stupid foot.... :eek:

    Now to decide. Exhaust, headunit, couple door speakers, or something else...

    Hmm, I have ABS.... Hopefully my wires don't melt. I'll check it out tomorrow.

    Keep in mind I was getting 17 while keeping up with others in our "convoy" to the off road park. So that equals me going from 60 to 75 back and forth over and over. Very annoying! Plus Missouri Highways are so hilly! I'll probably get about 19 when I go back to good ole' Texas! :D
