Thank you all so much...I really appreciate it. Just had one more question.... I keep hearing about the 6637 intake, but is that just the filter or is it a complete cold air intake system...also, what company makes it, or is it just called the 6637. Thanks again

I call the company that makes it NAPA. You call them whatever you would like, but higher priced than fleetfilter.com would be another option. It isn't exactly a cold air intake, but it really doesn't matter bc after INTENSE testing and computer modeling the under hood temps while moving are like four degrees hotter than ambient. Sitting in traffic is a different story.

After having my DP tuner chip done for a stock transmission, then doing my valve body, then having my chip re-done... I would have done the VB first then the chip.... Live once learn lots....

I also say, Welcome to TFE and enjoy your new addiction! I was the guy who came in and said I will only do "the big three." Well...now I have a valve body, full set of gauges, no intake , stuff to do intanks and CCV, GPR LED, looking into 05 headlights, 08 tailgate...it just keeps going My wife loves this site!!!
Is this a new tailgate mod?does the 08 tailgate fit on our trucks?

I added some new tunes as well. I think I was $140... This included 1 new tune, and custom tuning for hybrids and tranny... I have no clue what it costs to only have tranny stuff added to your existing tunes
