Have you done any mods to it at all? If not do the 6637 filter mod, that will set you back about $45 to do and will give you some extra ponies, after that do the downpipe...

BB (used in a pelet or BB gun). It is used to shim the FPR.
Check out this thread it will tell how to do it.

Yea, its worth it to spend the money on a chip all day long.
Just do that 6637 mod while your waiting on the chip, and throw on a DP as well. You'll be good to go.

between the threads......it sounds like you want to run your truck....if thats the case I would suggest getting gauges before you start worrying too much about mods....the best improvement from them would be keeping the motor around longer if your running it hard
