What are the best upgrades for a 99/00 Escalade w/o breaking the bank?? I tried searching but there are millions of threads with no real advice.

Im trying to get the best bang for the buck, I would like to know what to do first, then next, then next.

I heard alot about black bear tune but how about something by Jet or Superchips? Throttle body or intake spacer? I already have a K&N filter do I keep it or ditch it for an intake? Which one?

Thanks in advance!

I know I'm gonna get blasted for these, but so far it's been my best bang for the buck mods.

- K&N drop in filter - keep yours
- remove silencer box ($3)
- remove top of airbox ($0)
- efans (~$100)
- underdrive pulleys and belt - with overdrive alt pulley
- 75mm ported Throttle Body - no spacer
- Hawk ceramic pads
- non-chinese slotted rotors - need all that go to stop
- BB Tune
- MPFI upgrade
- intake spacer

Roughly in that order.

I've been considering installing a OEM GM higher RPM stall torque converter, but havn't finished the research yet.

Thanks for the reply, I found a super chips programmer for 100 bucks. Good or no?
