When your ready shoot the shop a call. The $250 street/truck tune is what you need.

The trucks pick up alot more throttle response and better shifting. You don't have to hit the gas as much to get moving. The government made the auto makers tune for the green house. Trucks run too lean all the time. By making them run richer they drive better and actually get better gas mileage.
