ordered me a new truck on friday
 

ordered a new 06 silverado 3500 DRW 4x4 turbo diesel. its the newer diesel with more hp and even more torque. got a sunroof, bose stereo, and some other neat little things. i did this because these get more gas mileage then my current 8.1 gas motor

throw a programer on it and pick up like 300 ft/lbs

Congrats on the new purchase good luck with it!

iwill have a 4" open exhaust on this thing in a day or 2 after i get it and an air intake. i have to wait for the new programmers to come out to rtweak that part of it!!

BTW I need to move my house down the street, do you think you could pull it for me? :lol:

if your looking for performance i can talk to the guys that own the jarvis trucks that run 12s at atco :wink: one soon to be running 11s with 65lbs of boost :shock:

Holy crap! :shock:

the truck isnt for performance, its for towing my car trailer. i want more performance and the bully dog system will be just fine. i dont want to get into ripping open a brand new trans and all for upgrades on it to hold up.

Those trucks are just sick. They leave such thick black smoke after they run its hard to see the trap numbers!

im good friends with the owners. they just got new turbos to run 65lbs. the fins on one was bent so they have to wait for a new turbo... that any theyre going to be getting around 100hp from a new windsheild washer fluid setup :wink:

what was your old truck and what did you do with it.JR1.

I like those setups!

2004 silverado ext cab 4x4 3500
8.1 vortec 4.10's loaded with allison transmission. i still have it, are you looking to buy one jr?

i was looking to buy a newer truck -BUT, got permently layed off last tuesday, i have a 2003, 2500hd,4x4, ext.cab, 6.0L, works great, was just wondering, its hard to find a good pulling truck with the 8100 in it.JR1. so when is the next time your going to the track.my belts run out in Oct., motor needs to come out,painting the car this year, adding a glide,mite buy new heads that flow more for a 23*, lose some weight in the car, redo the wiring, adding a Digital 6 Igition box, BECAUSE i got's all kinds of time on my hands. JR1.

the truck i have now pulls insane!! i just want more torque. im going oct 10 me and some friends are renting out us13 drag strip in delaware for the day. lemme know if youre interested just email or pm me. that sucks abotu getting laid off. got any jobs inline or are you collecting unemployemtn and all?

COLLECTING THE COIN - $$$$, after winters over then i'll start looking, thanks for inviting me, i'll have to pass.JR1.

The truck already has 650ftlbs stock, class leading by the way...
Duramax is KING!!
IMO, should have waited for the new pick ups coming in the spring. New chassis.
Did you get the 6spd Allision trans as well?

those trucks are sick. interiors like mercedes, performance better than a corvette.

ive seen the newer trucks coming out... im not much of a fan of them. i got the 6 speed/lbz diesel combo. its a nice truck

Dont confuse the new Tahoe with the new trucks, they will look totaly different.
Good move on the 6spd allison.
