Which mod should i do first?

RE: Which mod should i do first?
argument??? who's arguing? it's a discussion between members who have their opinions and everyone is entitled to it.
Silver.. how do you figure you lost power with your exhaust? in your sig you mention dual 2.25's, that should work fine for a 318... if you think you still lost some after having 2.25's, you could always kneck it down another 1/16"~ 1/8 or so... I think however your setup is good...

Well I guess what I meant was I feel sort of bad for the guy who started the post having to sort through all the opinions but, like I said before he asked a very opinionated(sp) question so it won't have a clear answer. As far as my exhaust it felt to me like I didn't have as much low-end as I used to, I'm not complaining though I love my exhaust. I was just saying that if I had it do all over again the exhaust would have been lower on my priorities list.

No and I don't think I will. I don't want to go against what I am preaching here but I'm trying to decide between a high-flow cat, a fastman throttle body or a tuner for my next mod. I know I am going to end up with all three of them. Like I said before I think I worded things wrong in my post, I'm not lacking alot of power or anything I was just saying that it felt like I lost low-end. I understand that a good exhaust is a big part of the performance equation but I was saying that put in Terran's position I wouldn't go with exhaust first because I am assuming he is looking for bang-for-buck type of mods and I feel like so far my CAI has been the best, but that is my opinion and I don't have any dyno sheets to prove it.

it would be interesting to see what the feedback would be from a gasser... from their website, they seem to get the nod from each group (diesels & gassers)
and... Nope Donnie... my aero is still in the garage... getting the valve body put on in a day or two.

You know, i'm not a newb to forums in any way, but i think you have to look at in it the idea that, if it annoys you, don't post on it, but when you were new i bet you asked dumb questions too. There are only so many parts on the truck and i bet if you searched enough, all questions would have been answered already. But in real life, when some younger enthusiast asks you about your exhaust or anything about your truck, do you scream at them to do their research?
This is supposed to be a friendly supportive place.
And i think the throwup is between k&n or flowmaster for next performance mod.

Has anybody tried the summit version of the K&N filter?

Someone called me a stupid newb and told me to do a search. At that point I didnt even know there was a search function. So I used it and moved on. I never got sand in my Vagina or cried or needed pampers for my big sore vagina.
As far as posting on topics like this. I would love to share my knowledge on other threads but who the hell wants to weed through all the ones that dont have technical info.
NOTE to everyone
Im not picking on Newbies or anyone else that posts this stuff, I would just like to see higher "tech" when I come to a truck forum.
No offense, I was there at one point.

RE: Which mod should i do first?
the first mod i did to mine was a flowmaster exhaust. mind you im runnign the V6 here. but i went single 2.25 inlet to dual 2.5 out, then 3" magnaflow tips. i also had a magnaflow high flow cat put on, but that was only because the stock one failed. if money is tight, like it is with msot on here, i wouldnt replace anything unless it broken or getting there. i replaced the exhaust when i noticed the muffler looking raddy.
i also recently put a k&n drop in air filter in. they were on sale and i was tired of trying to get the new airhat for my intake to fit properly. im happy with it so far.
oh, and ive NEVER used the search function. but i read about 75% of the posts regardless of whether its something ive dealt with before or not. liek someone said, i still learn alot from most of the posts.
