Default Some new upgrades.

So recently I just bought a couple things and will Recieve them on monday, should boost the truck up a little. I bought a flaspaq programmer, K&N CAI, and a TB spacer. On this Forum i've reead that the TB spacers don't do much but it can only do better then worse actually so it's ok.

So what kinda gains am i looking at With these upgrads??? anythin serious? I'm quite excited! Actually the truck has to go in the shop so it might be tuesday or wednsday till i put those parts on! im Excited like a fat kid on Easter.

How much hp/trq am i looking at with those items? I didn't really read much review, just heard great things about them.

It's going on a 04 4.7L 285

it will wake up your engine for sure much better throttle response. u should have took the money you spend on the TB spacer and bought a larger TB.

and you should have built your own cai, its 100% cheaper for exactly the same thing, except it doesnt look as pretty as the k&n molded abs lol

The tb spacer won't do anything unless you get a different intake manifold . I have a old highrise intake and I just added my tb spacer on fri afternoon before I went to the track and it helped a lil with the throttle response .

Surprisingly My truck has alot of Throttle responce, it's one of the peppiest trucks i've ever drove. the gas peddle is so touchy, motor is extremly strong! so it should do wonders! does anyone know what kinda gains you get with a flashpaq?
