Here she is when I get her!

I will add some pictures of what I got done so far as I get them.


2/23/15 - Got the exhaust done at Lou's Custom Exhaust in Waltham, MA - Originally I was just going to swap the Y for a magnaflow, and install the Super44.. The guy who did my work pulled me out into the shop and ran an idea by me.. We ended up cutting another inlet into the muffler so that it was Dual-Inlet into single out, this cut the Y-Pipe completely out of the equation, they did a great job and the truck sounds mean! I will get some sound clips as soon as I get it back from having tires put on it.

EXHAUST CLIP!

2/25/2015 - Swapped the stock 265/75/16 BFG Rugged Fails for 265/75/16 BFG All-Terrain T/A KO, about 30k miles left on these tires, they were on my old truck, going to switch to 285/75/16 BFG All-Terrain T/A KO2 when these wear out.

Dirty shot of it, gotta wait for this winter to end before I will be able to give it a good waxing and cleaning..

2/28/2015 - Added new bulbs, went with Sylvannia Silverstar ZXE 9007 for the headlights, and swapped fogs for modified H9 Nokya Hyper Yellows (H9 is 65W vs 55W on H11 which is the default bulb)

Also! Cleaned up shot of her after I got it registered in PA, my wife decided to photobomb the picture.

3/5/2015 - UpRev Osiris! Just waiting on my E-tune now

3/17/2015 - Stillen lightweight under drive pulley installed, and Injen intake cleaned up!

You can click on the "Edit" button and add something into that reserved post if you want. We do it fairly frequently when building large threads so someone can't quick post in the middle before we can finish. If not hit me back here and I'll delete it for you along with this one.

Stillen Lightweight Under Drive pulley en route! Hopefully the starter bump method with a long breaker bar works.

How are you liking the Uprev tune?

How are you liking the Uprev tune?

We have been having technical difficulties getting the tune up and running on the 2013. The 5 map tune profiles aren't taking hold like they should, the lead dev is looking at the ECU ROM to see if there's something being overlooked. In the end if the 5 map tune doesn't work, I will just settle for a single map with a 93 performance tune.

I'm really interested how the UpRev works out, I'm interested in its performance abilities and other possible uses.

 

[ChaosMinionX]

HUGE THANKS to Omar, Chris and Hans at UpRev! They finally got my ECU ROM squared away, and everything is working as it should! Took quite a few ROMs to get it fully squared away, but these guys are top notch when it comes to communication and handling issues promptly.

Based on the service alone, I highly recommend going the UpRev route, it definitely seems to be worth the money, especially looking toward the future of what mods you may add down the road.

Now I get to go out and play around with the truck and get some datalogs to get it fine tuned!>

keep us updated. I'm interested in your thoughts on a relatively stock truck. Uprev is on the list since I just got a pretty serious raise :thumbsup:

Well, if it turns out to be amazing I will let you know haha, I have no doubt given the glowing reviews from current owners.

Since you have a 2013 fronty, I did all the leg work to getting our ECUs worked out haha, so you will just be plug and play, instead of dealing with multiple reflashes and stalling vehicle maps ::smile::

 

[WreckDiver1321]

Great looking truck. I love what you did with the logos on your Weathertechs. Very cool.

 

[ChaosMinionX]

Doug Thorley Long Tube headers ordered!

Hopefully will get some nice spring-like weather soon and will be able to do this and the crank pulley in one go!

 

[ChaosMinionX]

Upcoming project day/weekend!


Going to do the following to the truck on the next nice day I get.

1. Stillen LW UD pulley install
2. Doug Thorley Long Tube Header install
3. Rear Diff breather relocation mod
4. Pulling out my Injen CAI and polishing it back to how it was, also installing an Injen Prefilter.
5. Adding a vent filter to the front differential breather in the engine bay
6. UpRev Datalogging once its all done!

Will be getting lots of pictures of the installs, this thread is missing pictures! Will also do a new video of my exhaust once the headers are done.

 

[ChaosMinionX]

Picked up an aFe Power MACH Force-Xp 2-1/2" to 3" Cat-Back exhaust with stainless steel tip from another member - going to have quite a bit of a project day coming up!

 

[ChaosMinionX]

UPDATE!

Installed Stillen pulley, the starter bump trick worked the first time! Needed to use a pry bar to get the pulley started, and then rocked it out the rest of the way. Pretty easy install, also used white lithium to grease the part going back into the crank. BIG THANKS to @Nomad 13 for his writeup on the pulley install, and for the tip on the starter bump!

Saturday going to get the aFe catback exhaust, then just gotta wait for the headers to arrive and will get it all mounted up at once, going to be an impatient next few weeks! After its all installed it will be time to use up my e-tunes from UpRev and then eventually when I get to PA I will hit up a dyno, might even hit up a dyno here in MA, or in NH before if I can swing it.

Stock vs Stillen Pulley - That sucker is a world of difference in weight comparisons!

All done!-

Hey ChaosMinionX that pic of your truck in front of PepBoys, I believe thats Route 30 in the backround and the Fruitville Pike is on the right. If thats right, I know exactly where that is!!!! Nice Truck

Can you tell a difference with the pulley any noticeable gains besides weight ? Thanks
