    lol, pretty much what I was going to do the first time around till I remembered about adjustable uppers. Figured, since the UCA's on the 5 lug are already boxed in, why not take advantage and weld in some bungs, attach heims to eliminate the need for greasing, add in some heim spacers and your good to go.

    That is my plan but for now, I have to focus on mounting up this body kit. But please do it so I can see the results!

    I wish these engines could put out more but I guess the reliability and efficiency would go out the window if that happened.

    Yeah get that kit on! Oh I would definitely make videos for everyone. All the people who have the kit on right now are terrible about that lol.

    You think I would be able to beat a 4.0? lol

    take the jumper mod off the post and put the plug back in. You don't want to post that you have been fucking with the bikes electronics. Let the new owner figure that shit out.

    They can, ausie tirbo kit is doin 300 daily on low boost. Somewhere on the enet is an article that ssys the 2tr internals are forged.






    it'll be quicker then yours, he's not luggin all the 6lug shit around



    plenty of people have linked the rear already on the second gens. Old news.




    Lmao, that lasted long. Keep the bike, save up and boost the truck, but you'll spend less and gain more with a turbo. 5400 is out of my price range for bolt on performance.
