Default Upgrades for My O7 1500 Ramster

Hey guys. So I bought the truck and now I want to trick it out. Not too crazy or anything but I'm looking for performance, fuel economy, and just general all around the "sh*tness."

Here's my plan of action/order in whichI plan on putting my masterpiece together.

Performancewiseis as follows:

1. CAI - Any suggestions on brands? Experiences - bad or good.
2. Exhaust - Borla (when they come out with an 07) Flowmaster - Any othersout there that anybody has used and recommends?
3. Programmer - Hypertech or superchips?Which have you guys hadexperience with and whatwhere your pros and cons?
4. Headers - Do I really need this?

Cosmetic
1. Tint the back window
2.Get the new San Diego Charges Bolt rear window decal to let people know, Chargers, baby.
3. HID lights

Things Ialready have are: Chrome nerf bars,Linex liner, chrome gas caps, 20's.

Dang, please feel free to rearrange the order of upgradesor to make someadditions or deletions from the list.

Thanks in advance.

You might not want to put the Bolt on the back, it would give people the wrong idea...





LOL!!!

BTW,
Any CAI will do you good. They all work about the same. Find one that you like the looks of and get for a good price. You won't need the headers until you start doing some major under the hood mods, stick the exhaust. Borla great if you got the money, flows have always been there. The programmer: either Superchips (which just came out wiht the '07 kit) or Bully Dog.

Have fun Modding!!!

Hell yeah. Another Bolt fan in the house. I haven't really done any serious shopping for the bolt decal yet. What's the name of the place you're talking about? I want to get the new charger colors/bolt. I need to add another upgrade to my list... TAILGATE. Cuz some damn motherfu*kers stole that ****. Bastards!! I'll be sure to post up pics of my ride when it is fully pimped out. Chargers, baby!!!!

headers will lean you out and arent of any need unless you get a mild to extreme cam and some ported heads. i hate flowmasters on trucks. i think the resonate to much and its not the one off rumble a 5.7 L should have

pink, i can try to get you some headers for free... and maybe an exhaust for free too. the JBA headers here in SD are looking for 2007 HEMI's to "test." so when i find out more, ill let you know too. i know im gonna get it done sooner or later.
