Matt, I cant decide on a CAI. Volant like I had before, or try the Vararam. This is gonna take some thinking :********:

I'm definately gonna have JJ Fukkenize my headlights in the not so distant future!

Still waiting on Vararam lol...who knows if they'll ever release. Volant has a solid product for the 4gs, you get that and I'll wait for the Vararam then will race to see which one is better lol! You'll need to open her up all the way through the exhaust too! Our Y-pipe is restrictive as hell, a nice set of AR Longtube headers and custom Y-pipe along with a new muffler will be a good start :naughty:


A new set of headlights is on my list as well, I'm thinking color match the outer trim, with a bit of a tint, along with a set of HIDs will do nicely!

Thanks guys! It was $46,000 and I rolled out the door for like $32,270 or $32,370. Something like that. They first offered me $7000 for my truck and I almost punched the guy! Seriously! We finagled for a while back and forth, then he went up to $13,000. But it still wasn't enough. So we went back and forth, and he finally said $31,500 something. And after gap insurance and tax and title. $32k. I'm happy camper!

Well as far as what I got for my trade in, I'm 150% satisfied!

I bought the 05 2 years ago for $16,000 even, and It bluebooked for $21,500.

This one blue books for $50,000, they wanted $46, and I got it for $32K. I feel like I'm upgrading. Like I said my truck was pretty fast and had alot of power, but these trucks blow it out of the water even after all that work! My buddy king and I raced his new 2011 that he bought Saturday with my old 05 Saturday night, and he destroyed me 3 times! That was the deciding factor for me. A better flowing intake and a tuner and it'll prolly be up there with a 6.1l!

It's a nice feeling isn't it? All that power and looks wrapped into one truck? I love mine.

Although, you're not quite to 6.1 range with that thing. Do a cam and you will be.
