I was on your website just a bit ago, I was visitor # 17 must be a newer site, I like it, it's simple and not a million popups. I just wanted to ask you a question about your mods, they seem like the're "do it yourselfers" type of mods, did they make a big iprovement in hp, torque and gas milage? I just got mine yesterday and I'm VERY impressed with the 4.7L backed up w/3.92's. (I think I'm still used to a 4 pooper s10)

Yeah, new website, threw it together last Saturday as an informational site. I will be posting Performance/mpg for each mod as I have kept track of each mod's results. All the Mods done are DIY, I have always done all my own work for "bolt-on" stuff and most work for more complicated installs. I have noticed a real good increase in the low and mid end with the exhaust/Air Raid combo although my gas mileage suffered by about 2mpg, even with light footed driving and highway miles. The TPS mod made throttle response a little more snappy and the Splitfire Plugs smoothed out the rough idle where it is almost unnoticeable anymore, but gas mileage again dropped, about 1mpg after adding the Splitfires. I will be trying different gaps to get the best overall peformance/mpg, they are set at .046 where they suggested .044 with factory being at .040 I believe. Well that's about it I think, I will be puttin all this info and more on my website when I get a free moment:) Good-Luck!

Flowmaster stainless cat back, Air Raid CAD and homemade TB connect, Splitfire Plugs, 180 T-stat, .76 TPS, 3

Thanks for the info I'll have to keep an eye on your site for updates, my mods won't be for a little while, the 3,000 I put down, pretty much drained me. Oh well at least I'm not driving an S10 xtreme anymore.
