Got my '07 a month ago - yeah, the third row is small, but so are 3 of my 4 kids; they
FIGHT to sit back there!!!
Your kids will love it!
For what I've seen, you're gonna wanna go Catback, to keep
UP the backpressure and the torque necessary to get those 5,119lbs out of their own way in city/stop 'n' go traffic (my situation). Being from the old hotrodding school myself, I
LOVE a good set of throaty duals, but it may not be possible with the 287.
Not sure about hp at this point, but I took my Superchips flashpaq, and tuned it for 87 octane gas, and lowered the axle ratio from 3.73, to 3.55. Since I'm 100% an asphalt crawler at THIS point,
I wanted better gas mileage. I'm installing the aFe CAI tomorrow, but with a K&N panel filter and the tuning, I've picked up about 1.5mpg so far. 10 more horses with the CAI will be nice, too, and the 287 is plenty peppy & responsive; there's just a
LOTTA mass its GOTTA move, & as an aerodynamic
brick no less!
