My dad’s truck is out of warranty and I want to start modding it lol.

it’s only got like, 40K miles.

Runs pretty well, but it’s a slug up top. Any horsies gained is good.

Besides slapping on F/I or nitrous, are the basic bolt ons worth it?

it’s got the 5.7 I think.

Dual side exiting exhaust will make it sound sweet.  
Mate those with some high flow cats and headers and it will probably unleash a good amount of power.

Not sure what other bolt on stuff is made for, or would be beneficial to that motor. Underdrive pulleys maybe. K&N filter.

Shortie headers & Exhaust  
K&N FIPK  
1.6:1 roller rocker arms  
Hypertech Powerprogrammer

Anything more will require ripping into the bottom end

Yeah Howie def get a pimpin catback at the very least, those things can actually sound pretty sweet with the right exhaust. Other then that just do the usual stuff, CAI and reprogram should give it a nice little kick.

Be careful on the repogram. Reprogramming a 1.8 so it has to run in 93 isn’t a big deal, but when you’re getting 10mpg it starts getting real expensive having to run super all the time.

On my truck I think I’m just going to try an intake and a mild exhaust. It’s not meant to be fast, but I’d like to give it a little more growl than it has now.
