I did with 20's, but i bet with 24's you REALLY lost some power huh? Another thing to consider, is gears....what gears do you have now, and what size tires?

x2 on gears...and do you tow?
I had my BlackBear before I had my Supercharger and I had 24's and the difference was very noticeable. One of the best investments I did besides the SC. Can't go wrong with BlackBear. I ran stock 3.73's for a while and towed a 25' Master Craft and it did well with the combo. Now I run 4.11's It has pros and cons it just depends on you..

^ To provide more input, what are your goals, expectations, and budget?
BB tune regardless. Gears will cost quite a bit for parts and labor - need to replace the differential gears at both axels.

^ Are you sure $450 for the tune? What are you getting?
You say you want a big difference. Do not expect a large increase in power. The main thing is drivability - better throttle response, better tranny shifting, a little bit more power, and maybe a little bit of fuel economy (if you can keep your foot off the skinny pedal
.
What mods do you have engine wise? It would be better to have an aftermarket intake, at least change out the muffler (Magnaflow or Corsa), and remove the resonator (if you have the 5.3L engine) to take advantage of the tune.
