Finally had time to post on this site. I had my TY for about 6 months and I love it. It's completely stock but I love it. Just wondering what mods to do first?

Nice. Another CO truck :tup:

First things first. Full tune up if you haven't yet (Plugs, wires, cap&rotor, etc.).

Then, invest in a scantool of somesort. Ie... cheap laptop with Datamaster or Tunerpro. Turbo-link is out there, but not much love for it. Make sure everything is tip top before looking into mods. While everything is completely stock, you may not be getting the most out of your truck.

From there, I'd do the reliability stuff. Walbro fuel pump, soft IC lines, upgraded IC pump, AFPR and redo your vacuum lines, especially if they are original. After that, you'll have a good base to start researching where you want to go with your truck, how fast, etc. :tup:

I got the full tune up and I'll need to get everything else since this thing is completely stock exept for the k&n filter.

What T-J said.

Quite possibly, the *worst* first mod is a chip. Resist it until you're really sure that everything is working well stock.

I'm of the mind that your first larger $ investment should be a wide band o2 setup.

Exactly what Dig said wide band o2 before anything, I went the other way 1st and what a mess that was.

By the way where abouts in Denver.

I wrote an article for new SyTy owners, with advice on where to begin modding. Check it out: How to Get Your Stock Truck Deep in the 13's (...without buying hardly anything).
