New guy with some pics

[slowstang305]

Hey guys, thought I would join up here as it seems to be a pretty active forum. I own an Escalade and love it to death. Slowly building it up into what I really want

So far it has:
Kenwood 8120 indash
7in headrest monitors
Pro-Flo Dual Exhaust
6000K HID Headlights/Foglights
07+ Escalade wheels

Welcome!

Welcome to the forum bro! The Lade looks good!

Nice Esky and welcome to TYF There are some good dudes on here man. You'll like it...

what are your future plans for it? You should track down some OEM Esky 22's that come on the 07+ Escalades. Those would look magnificent on your ride

Thanks for the welcome guys! I was in search of a 03+ Navigator, or 02+ Denali/Suburban and somehow this one popped up for sale. I was never a chevy guy but Ill be honest, I'm liking the ride alot!!!

Future plans are 22-24in wheels. 07Burb, I would love to find a set of OEM 22's but you already know they are ridiculously overpriced. I think I can find nicer 22-24s for the money. I think I'm going to go with black wheels later on, sort of a trend I follow. LOL


Past cars...

What is this Blackbear tuner you have in your sig? Is this like the Diablosport but for GM? Sorry, I'm pretty new to all this

Welcome! It's worth it to find some OEM 22's!!!! If you want to go 24's then aftermarket is understandable but OEM 22 is a very clean comfortable ride (if you care about that)... or the replica TBSS rims or esky 22's would be a clean choice too! Regardless of your choice be sure to post some pics when you decide

BB Tune = blackbear tune. You can go to a 'BB Tune meet' in scheduled areas found on their website or you can purchase an AutoCal which is a handheld unit that can modify the TCM/ECM with an email sent from the folks at BlackBear with an attached file that you can flash to the autocal then flash to your car. Good stuff... it's on my to do list.

AutoCal runs a little over 500 and you can do it at your house and have files emailed you to. The plus side of having this is if you go to the dealership you can flash your ECM/TCM back to stock... which is the main reason why I want this... The BB Tune meet is $250 (200 in person 50 deposit)- BUT the autocal is not included-- it can be purchased separately for around 300 (if you already had the tune) if i'm not mistaken so the prices end up being around the same.

Thank you for the information. Sounds like its a mail order tune that can be based on mods. This is a great thing as I'm sure there is untapped performance in the 6.0 motor. I know I saw decent gains on the mustang with the diablosport tuner. Are most of the guys on blackbear using a 93 octane tune?
