Wow...quite a transition you got there Koa. You get to hit up Alki when you get tired of real surf ;)

I'm in the NW by way of Los Angeles. Can't wait for Thursday when summer actually starts around here.

Hey guys, I'm out of Everett Area near Mill Creek.

tahoe2011, just like you, we purchased our first Tahoe, brand new.

anyone interested getting a BB Tune event setup here in Seattle? Regency, I posted on your thread regarding this. Does this make sense for those of us w NNBS Hoe's or Kon's, or are in person tunes not needed, since they BB has the AutoCal? I know they need a minimum amount to come out but am not sure how many?

Macho, I think BB needs 15-20 guaranteed people for them to come out. There was another guy from Puyallup trying to get something started back in December-ish but me and him were the only 2 guys on the list. I like the idea of the autocal and think I will go that route later on. Congrats on the new rig lets see some pics of it! You have any plans for it besides BB tune?

2011tahoe, dang thats a lot of peeps. Do you know the difference between having an in-person VS AutoCal, other than having the ability to store different tunes on the AutoCal?

Performance: I've installed a Corsa Touring. Im planning on the Air raid jr for intake. Then get the tune of course.

Interior: Weather techs are the only thing I've changed I've added along with the center console divider.

Exterior: weather tech mudguards installed. 18% on the front windows. I've plastidiped the Crome bezel on the front grill. Need to dip the rear bowtie and debadge the lift gate and LT emblems. On the fence on removing the side mouldings. I plan on rims (prob TBSS 22's) although I may wait until after winter since summer will prob be over after this week lol. I'm interested in the 2-3/4 drop and need to convince the wife that it won't look "ghetto" as she says. How do you like your Bell Tech kit?

Any more mods for your Hoe!? :). Love the white diamond. We originally wanted white but couldn't locate one with the options we were looking for.

Hey everyone. I was the one trying to get that BB tune started. We need to get this going and they will help us a BB tune to get it booked. Also MACHO, included some photos to show your wife what the drop would look like. My wife was a little hesitant to have the vehicle dropped, but she loves the look and ride now.

Fireman297, DROOOOOOOL!! You're the man! Thanks for Posting. That will make my job selling it easier. What rims & tires do you run. Im lusting after the TBSS 22's in comp grey.

Macho, I am not sure about the difference between the tunes, jennabear is a member on here and works for BBP, she would be the one to message and ask. What exactly is the air-raid jr? Definitely do the lowering IMO it looks so much better, but if your wife is on the fence about it, install the wheels and tires then she will see all that gap and definitely want it done. Mine rides awesome, the wife likes it quite a bit, she didn't really have a say on it. Hahaha. There are a few things left that I plan on doing exhaust,intake and tune. I would like to do led's on all the outside lights and G4 tails. I have quite a few pictures in my album so show her those, it may help with her decision. Also I have my comp grey TBSS rep wheels at my store in port orchard if you wanted to see them in person before you buy. I can even bolt them on for ya to see what they look like. I am running them as my winter wheels, the 20's looked kinda ballooned after I lowered it so I sold them.

2011 Tahoe, this is the airaid jr:

http://www.autoanything.com/air-intakes/61A1849A0A0A3321210.aspx

TBSS reps as your winter wheels??? Lucky! 22 or 20's?

I appreciate the offer, that's really nice of you! I will probably have to take you up on it! You work at Schwab? Wednesday's I'm down I Puyallup for work or maybe a weekend if you're available I can bring it over.

Thanks for the link that system seems pretty cool, does the filter require oiling? I would assume it does since it's washable and reuseable, I am kinda nervous about oiled filters, I have had issues with my atv's and def don't want any issues with the hoe. Yeah I work for Schwab's, I will be there through sat. This week and next then I'm on vaca for a week. Anytime is good, we may just have to leave them on though. Haha. I have the 22" reps with 285/45/22 Toyo h/t's. Never been on yet. I come across good deals every now and then so I couldn't pass it up. Plus I sold my brand new LTZ chrome wheels and BS duelers for a good amount. A little painting on the kids ride and a lawn mower battery turned the power wheels into a pretty sweet ride. Haha, thanks for the compliments.

Firemans rig looks pretty sweet I must say, it is one of the few that looks good de-molded IMO. Must be the black.

Macho, either the hitch close out or a LTZ bumper would look sweet!

Also, good to hear wife likes the drop!!!! Mod-friendly wife's rock!!

They have both options for filters, oiled or dry. You can buy the tube ONLY which is the "Airaid MIT". I'm actually thinking about that one. That's the one BB tested and it yielded almost identical HP gains as all the highest

Ok I will be in touch about coming down. I can't believe you found a set of reps for sale!

Cool, I will have to look into that system a little more sounds right up my alley. I bought the TBSS reps new but I got a good deal on them. I have had them for about 2 months but they haven't been on yet. Weather has been too nice to take off the chromies. I'll be on the lookout for a deal on tires though. I scooped my brand new BS Duelers up for $450. Yeah just let me know when. I'll pm you my work # tomorrow .

Let us know when you get it installed Regency.

Haha, I joined the emeralds but didn't see anything on it. Lol Plus I'm always on Tapatalk which isn't very good at the ancillary areas of TYF... at least that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it :)

Are we the only two members? Lol
