There just the stock O2 sensors before the cats, mine were running really sluggish so was time to change. Do you have any pics of your tips? Looking for ideas for a new set on mine

Damn mike make up your mind

I'm going to stay mostly stock with some all terrain tires and maybe ford keys and a 1" spacer but going to stay on 265's and no bigger. I need her to be able to still go to the snow, get better fuel mileage and be more practical than what it was. Plus my wife hated driving it on 22's and didn't feel safe. I'm the type of person that puts family and safety needs before personal needs. :)

@ Vince, Thanks. It will definitely be quite some work to do a monitor, the stock radio panel just pry's out, no screws nothin...

Installed Z71 Springs from a Suburban Z71, Re-Installed my Stock Keys and got new tires for the stock Tahoe NNBS Rims. I know it looks plan "Jane" but the ride quality is so much better :)

I just did a resonator delete off my car and got my Volant Super Tips welded on yesterday. It sounded throatier, meaner, and overall BETTER.

Today was a good day. I picked up my fresh NNBS esky mirrors freshly painted full Summit White with the chrome lowers (never seen a summit white esky so it's semi-unique). Then I got a nice little package in the mail: An Airaid MIT (modular intake tube)! A friend and I took out the stock tube and installed it onto the stock MAF/Air Filter box. When I accelerate, I can hear the air flowing under the hood and it definitely adds a little extra "umph" to the stock exhaust system (with the help of my new volant tip). Wednesday my Magnaflow 12589 5x11x22 muffler comes in the mail so that should be a nice new factor in the equation. Also next week, the second half of my CAI intake system comes in, the matching Airaid performance cone air filter with the heat shield. By the end of next week, I'll hopefully be ready for a custom tune!!!

Well, she's all cleaned up inside and out and ready to get dirty again. With 2 boys (4 yrs and 20 months) I'm sure it'll be a matter of seconds!! :)
