(ANNOUNCER)>> TODAY WE'RE HEADING TO THE DEALERSHIP TO SHOW YOU WHAT TO LOOK FOR WHEN BUYING A USED TRUCK TO MAKE SURE YOU GET THE MOST BANG FOR YOUR TRUCK BUCK. THEN WE'LL TEST DRIVE OUR NEWEST PURCHASE SO WE CAN MAKE PLANS TO UPGRADE THIS VERY PLAIN LOOKING RIDE. IT'S ALL TODAY HERE ON TRUCKS.

(RYAN)>> HEY GUYS, WELCOME TO TRUCKS. WELL TODAY'S ONE OF THOSE FUN DAYS WHERE WE GET TO GET OUT OF THE SHOP, COME DOWN HERE, AND PICK OUT A USED TRUCK FOR OUR NEXT PROJECT. NOW WE DIDN'T WANT A NEW TRUCK CAUSE FRANKLY, WE COULDN'T AFFORD ONE AND WE DIDN'T WANT TO TAKE THE BIG HIT IN DEPRECIATION AS SOON AS WE DRIVE IT OFF THE LOT. NOW WE DON'T KNOW EXACTLY WHAT WE WANT, BUT WE KNOW WHAT WE DON'T WANT. WE DON'T WANT AN SUV, AND I DON'T THINK WE WANT ANOTHER FOUR WHEEL DRIVE. SO WE'VE GOT TO PICK OUT OUR CAD CONFIGURATION AND OUR COLOR, AND THAT'S WHAT WE'RE HERE FOR.

(KEVIN)>> NOW WE ENDED UP HERE AT MURREY CHEVROLET, WHICH IS

ACTUALLY DRIVING DISTANCE FROM THE TRUCKS SHOP, BUT WE STARTED OUR SEARCH LIKE ANYBODY WOULD, ON THE INTERNET. WE SEARCHED THE CLASSIFIEDS, WE SEARCH INTERNET AUCTION SITES, AND A LOT OF CAR DEALERSHIPS, AND AS IT TURNS OUT THESE GUYS HAVE A GREAT SELECTION OF USED TRUCKS AND MAY VERY POSSIBLY HAVE THE BASIS FOR OUR NEW PROJECT.

(RYAN)>> NOW WHAT WE WANT IS A NICE, CLEAN, SEMI LATE MODEL PICK UP IN THE $12,000 TO $15,000 DOLLAR RANGE. SOMETHING THAT'LL LEAVE US A LITTLE COIN LEFT OVER SO WE CAN THROW A FEW PARTS AT IT.

NOW WE DON'T WANT SOMETHING THAT NEEDS A PAINT JOB OR A DRIVETRAIN SWAP. WE'VE GOT ENOUGH LABOR INTENSIVE PROJECTS BACK AT THE SHOP. WE WANT A TRUCK WE CAN THROW PARTS AT A LITTLE AT A TIME, KIND OF LIKE YOU GUYS WOULD. BUT THIS ONE'S A CREW CAB AND A FOUR WHEEL DRIVE, SO I'M GONNA KEEP LOOKING.

(KEVIN)>> NOW WHILE WE'RE HERE WE WANTED TO PASS ON SOME TIPS FOR YOU GUYS ON HOW TO QUALIFY A GOOD USED VEHICLE.

WE'RE PRETTY CONFIDENT IN WHAT'S OUT HERE ON MURREY'S LOT BECAUSE LIKE A LOT OF NEW CAR DEALERS, THEY'RE PRETTY PICKY ABOUT WHAT THEY PUT UP FOR SALE.

(ED)>> THE FIRST THING WE DO IS WHEN WE'RE LOOKING AT IT TO TRADE FOR IT, WE TRY TO EVALUATE AT THAT POINT RIGHT THERE WHAT WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO DO TO IT, POSSIBLE THINGS. AND THEN AFTER THE TRADE IN PROCESS IS COMPLETED, WE SEND IT TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT, AND THE FIRST THING THEY DO IS WHAT'S CALLED A USED VEHICLE INSPECTION. IT'S TYPICALLY RIGHT AT 117 POINT INSPECTION LIST, AND CHECK IT FROM BUMPER TO BUMPER, MAKE SURE IT'S A QUALITY AUTOMOBILE, PREOWNED AUTOMOBILE BEFORE WE PUT IT ON OUR LOT TO SELL. EACH SALES PERSON IS EQUIPPED WITH A BOOK, HAS ALL THE INFORMATION AND THE PICTURES ON EVERY VEHICLE WE TRADE FOR.

THEY'LL FLIP RIGHT TO IT, LOOK DOWN THROUGH HERE, WE HAVE ALL THAT INFORMATION IN FRONT OF US. WE'RE NOT GONNA PUT ANYTHING OUT THERE UNLESS WE FEEL GREAT ABOUT IT. IT HAS TO BE THAT WAY OR IT WON'T WORK.

(KEVIN)>> NOW THESE GUYS ARE GOOD, HOWEVER, IF YOU'RE

LOOKING FOR A USED CAR IN SOME HOLE IN THE WALL CAR LOT WITH A GUY WITH A SLIPPERY SUIT AND A SLIPPERIER HAIR DO AND HE'S

TRYING TO PUT THE HARD SELL ON YOU ON A GOOD USED VEHICLE, WINK WINK, HERE'S A COUPLE THINGS TO LOOK FOR.

I'M A PAINT AND BODY GUY AND I KINDA KNOW WHAT TO LOOK FOR WHEN IT COMES TO INSPECTING A VEHICLE FOR PRIOR COLLISION DAMAGE OR PAINT WORK. HERE'S A COUPLE OF POINTS. LOOK AT YOUR FENDER BOLTS. LOOK AT THE BOLT FOR WRENCH SCARS, BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY LOOK AT THE PAINT AROUND IT FOR EITHER SIGNS OF IT BEING PULLED OR SCARRED. THIS HAS NEVER BEEN TURNED, THAT'S A GOOD SIGN. ANOTHER IMPORTANT PLACE TO LOOK IS THE HOOD. THESE HINGES, AGAIN, IT'S FACTORY PAINT, THE BOLTS HAVE NO SCARS, THEY'VE NEVER BEEN TURNED. THERE'S NO MISALIGNMENT MARKS AROUND IT. IT LOOKS TO ME LIKE THIS HOOD HAS NEVER BEEN REPLACED. ANOTHER THING TO LOOK FOR IS WHERE PLASTIC IS NEXT TO PAINT.

IF THIS HAD BEEN PAINTED YOU'D SEE OVERSPRAY AND IT'S VERY DIFFICULT TO CLEAN OFF. SO AGAIN, IT'S MORE IMPORTANT WHAT YOU DON'T SEE.

(RYAN)>> ALRIGHT, WELL THIS ONE'S GOT A DECENT BATTERY AND IT FIRED RIGHT UP, AND THIS IS WHAT I LIKE TO SEE IN AN ENGINE BAY, A GOOD, NATURAL LOOK. IT'S CLEAN BUT IT HASN'T BEEN RECENTLY STEAMED CLEANED AND COVERED IN SLIMY, GLOSSY ENGINE DRESSING. THAT MAY BE AN INDICATOR THAT THE GUY SELLING THE TRUCK OR CAR MAY BE TRYING TO HIDE SOMETHING AND YOU SHOULD LOOK

INTO IT A LITTLE BIT FURTHER. THIS ONE, WELL IT'S A LITTLE BIT DUSTY BUT IT SHOULD, IT'S GOT 100,000 MILES ON IT. AND YOU CAN SEE IF IT'S GOT ANY OIL LEAKS OR ANY OTHER MAJOR PROBLEMS. IT SEEMS TO BE IN GOOD SHAPE. ANOTHER THING TO CHECK FOR IS THE EXHAUST ON FIRST START UP. WHAT YOU WANT TO SEE IS WHAT WE SEE HERE, A LITTLE BIT OF WATER OR CONDENSATION COMING OUT OF THE TAIL PIPE. BUT ANY BLUE OR WHITE SMOKE COULD BE AN INDICATION OF BIGGER PROBLEMS.

(KEVIN)>> ANOTHER THING THAT'S ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO RECREATE

ARE THESE FACTORY SPOT WELD DIMPLES. WHEN A PANEL'S TYPICALLY REPLACED, THOSE ARE SMOOTHED OVER. THESE ARE ALL HERE, ALL OF THEM, AND THERE'S NO OVERSPRAY. I'M PRETTY CONFIDENT THIS TRUCK HAS NEVER BEEN WRECKED.

(RYAN)>> ANOTHER QUICK TEST YOU CAN DO IS ROCKING THE TRANSMISSION FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE AND CHECKING FOR ANY EXCESSIVE DRIVETRAIN SLACK. THIS ONE'S IN GOOD SHAPE.

(KEVIN)>> NOW HERE'S A QUICK INSPECTION FOR PRIOR FRAME DAMAGE. SEE THIS OBLONG HOLE, THOSE ARE ANCHOR POINTS OR TIE DOWN POINTS ON THE FRAME AN THEY'RE USED FOR REALIGNING A FRAME IN THE EVENT OF A MAJOR COLLISION.

THERE'S SEVERAL ON A TRUCK LIKE THIS AND THEY'RE ALL UP AND DOWN THE FRAME RAIL EASY TO SEE. SO IT'S AN EASY THING TO INSPECT, IT'LL TELL YOU A LOT.

(RYAN)>> ALRIGHT, WELL THIS TRUCK RUNS AND DRIVES LIKE A NEW ONE. NOW THERE'S OTHER THINGS YOU CAN DO TO CHECK OUT A VEHICLE MECHANICALLY. LOOK FOR OBVIOUS PROBLEMS LIKE OIL LEAKS AT THE TRANSMISSION AND REAR AXLE. BUT BEYOND THAT DON'T BE BASHFUL ABOUT ASKING FOR THE KEYS SO YOU CAN TAKE IT FOR A TEST DRIVE BEFORE YOU FORK OVER YOUR HARD EARNED CASH. THAT WAY YOU CAN CHECK FOR THINGS LIKE BRAKE SHIMMIES, DRIVELINE VIBRATIONS AND NOISES, AND OVERHEATING, AND YOU KNOW YOU'RE MAKING A SOUND INVESTMENT.

(KEVIN)>> WELL WE'VE SMOKED THIS THING OVER PRETTY GOOD AND IT'S JUST ABOUT EXACTLY WHAT WE WERE LOOKING FOR. SO NOW TIME TO SEE IF WE CAN GO MAKE A DEAL.

(RYAN)>> DID YOU BRING THE MONEY?

(KEVIN)>> YOUR MONEY!

(RYAN)>> YEAH RIGHT!

(KEVIN)>> HEY WELCOME BACK. WELL WE GOT A NEW TRUCK TO WORK ON, AND THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT WE WANTED. NOT FOR WHAT IT'S LOADED UP WITH, BUT MORE FOR WHAT IT DOESN'T HAVE. IT'S A TWO WHEEL DRIVE, IT'S NOT A FOUR WHEEL DRIVE, IT'S A REGULAR CAB AND IT'S JUST GOT THE BASIC EQUIPMENT AND TRIM PACKAGE ON IT. ALTHOUGH IT IS PRETTY WELL APPOINTED JUST LIKE IT SITS. IT'S AN '06 GMC SIERRA, AND WELL THAT'S JUST A PICK UP TRUCK. WHAT'S IMPORTANT IS THAT IT'S GOT THE ENGINE WE WANTED. THESE 1,500'S COME WITH EITHER A FOUR POINT EIGHT OR A FIVETHREE LS. SO IF YOU'RE AFTER THE FIVETHREE LIKE US, CHECK THE STICKER. NOW THIS VEHICLE IS BONE STOCK DOWN TO THE PAPER AIR FILTER AND THE RESTRICTIVE FACTORY EXHAUST. EVEN WITH ALL OF THAT IT DID PRETTY GOOD ON THE HIGHWAY. ON RAMP ACCELERATION WAS GOOD AND WE MANAGED TO PASS A COUPLE OF CARS, BUT WE WANTED TO GIVE IT A THOROUGH TEST DRIVE CAUSE HIGHWAY DRIVING IS JUST ONE FACET OF WHAT A

VEHICLE'S PERFORMANCE IS ALL ABOUT. SO WE THOUGHT WE'D TAKE YOU WITH US.

NOW ON A STRAIGHT, WELL PAVED ROAD, JUST ABOUT ANY VEHICLE IS GONNA FEEL FAIRLY SOLID, FEEL LIKE IT HANDLES WELL. BUT WE WANTED TO TRY SEVERAL SCENARIOS, TWISTY BACK ROADS,

WINDY NARROW TWO LANES, AND STRAIGHT LINE ACCELERATION, AS WELL AS OF COURSE BRAKING TESTS. NOW IN CASE YOU'RE WONDERING WHY WE WENT WITH THIS PARTICULAR FORMAT, A SHORT BED, REGULAR CAB PICK UP INSTEAD OF THE VASTLY MORE POPULAR EXTENDED CAB OR EVEN FOUR DOUR CAB TRUCK WITH A LONG BED. WELL RYAN AND I HAVE BOTH AGREED THAT THIS TRUCK LOOKS A LITTLE MORE SPORTY. PLUS THE FACT THAT COMPARED TO ITS FOUR DOOR CABBER, EVEN

EXTENDED CAB COUNTERPARTS, THIS THING IS A WELTERWEIGHT, AND GIVES US THE POTENTIAL COMBINED WITH THE LS SERIES ENGINE TO MAKE A LIGHTNING KILLER.

(RYAN)>> NOW FOR OUR INFORMAL ACCELERATION TEST, 20, 40, 50, 60, WE CLICKED OFF A ZERO TO 60 RUN OF JUST OVER EIGHT SECONDS, EIGHT POINT ONE TO BE EXACT. 60, 60, 60, 60! [ tires squealing ]

(RYAN)>> NOW FOR THE BRAKING TEST I JUST STOMPED THE PEDAL AND LET THE ANTILOCK BRAKES DO THEIR THING, CAUSE THE ABS COMPUTER WORKS MUCH FASTER THAN THE WALNUT IN MY SKULL, AND I'LL PROVE IT TO YOU HERE IN A MINUTE.

(KEVIN)>> 119 FEET!

(RYAN)>> SWEET, THAT'S ACTUALLY NOT TOO BAD. ALRIGHT, ROB SAYS GO. NOW A SLALOM TEST IS A GREAT WAY TO TEST THE TRACTION OF THE TIRES AND THE CONTROL OF THE SUSPENSION. AND FOR A FACTORY PICK UP TRUCK, WELL THIS ONE'S NOT DOING TOO BAD. BUT IT LOOKS LIKE THERE'S ROOM FOR IMPROVEMENT FOR BOTH THE TRUCK AND THE DRIVER. I ONLY KILLED ONE. ROB, YOU WANT ONE MORE? I DO NOT MIND AT ALL.

BEEP! WELL AFTER BACKING INTO POSITION, MAKING SURE I WAS BUCKLED UP AND GOOD TO GO, I MAY HAVE FORGOTTEN SOMETHING.

(ROB)>> HERE WE GO!

(RYAN)>> AH, HA, HA, AH S---!

(ROB)>> FORWARD!

(RYAN)>> I'M GONNA SCREW MY HEAD ON RIGHT AND ACCELERATE INSTEAD, FORWARD. A--, WHAT AN A--! IT'S KINDA GOT A FRONT END PUSH.

YEAH!

(KEVIN)>> NOW OVERALL WE THINK THE GENERAL DID A GREAT JOB OF

DESIGNING A VERY WELL ROUNDED TRUCK THAT DOES JUST ABOUT EVERYTHING WELL. BUT LIKE MOST OFF THE LOT, BONE STOCK VEHICLES, IT'S KIND

OF A ROLLING COMPROMISE, AND THERE'S PLENTY OF PLACES

TO IMPROVE NOT ONLY HANDLING BUT ALSO IN THE APPEARANCE DEPARTMENT. BECAUSE LETS FACE IT, THIS THING LOOKS GOOD, BUT IT LOOKS LIKE ABOUT A MILLION OTHER TRUCKS JUST LIKE IT ON THE ROAD. SO WE'VE GOT A PRETTY GOOD IDEA WHERE WE WANT TO TAKE THIS TRUCK.

(RYAN)>> HEY GUYS, WELCOME BACK.

NOW WE'VE GOT OUR NEW TO US 2006 GMC SIERRA 1,500 BACK

IN THE SHOP AFTER A BRIEF TEST DRIVE. AND OUR LITTLE JOY RIDE SHOWED US THAT THE STOCK FIVE POINT THREE LITER LS ENGINE UNDERNEATH THE HOOD DOES A PRETTY GOOD JOB OF MOTIVATING THIS PICK UP DOWN THE HIGHWAY. NOW IT'S HELPED BY THE FACT THAT THIS IS A REGULAR CAB SHORT BED. WE DON'T HAVE ANY EXTRA WEIGHT PENALTY FROM EXTRA SEATS, OR DOORS FROM AN EXTENDED CAB OR CREW CAB. THERE'S NO LONG BED SHEET METAL, AND THERE'S NO WEIGHT PENALTY FROM ANY EXTRA FOUR WHEEL DRIVE HARDWARE. SO WE'RE ALREADY OFF TO A GOOD START. BUT LIKE I SAID, THE FIVE THREE ENGINE IS STOCK, AND WE WANT TO ADD A COUPLE OF PARTS TO HELP INCREASE THE BREATHING

CAPABILITIES OF THE ENGINE.

AND WE WANT TO ADD A TUNER OR PROGRAMMER TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THOSE INCREASED BREATHING CAPABILITIES. NOW WITH THE FACTORY AIR TUBE OUT OF THE WAY AND BEFORE WE GET STARTED ON OUR COLD AIR INTAKE INSTALL, WE WANTED TO DO SOME MAINTENANCE TO THE THROTTLE BODY. NOW SINCE THERE'S A COOLANT HOSE ATTACHED TO IT, WE PUT DOWN SOMETHING TO CATCH ANY SPILLS SO WE DON'T CONTAMINATE THE SERPENTINE BELT CAUSING ANY ANNOYING SQUEALS.

HERE'S WHY WE'RE PULLING IT OFF. THESE LATE MODEL ELECTRONICALLY CONTROLLED THROTTLES ARE SENSITIVE TO CARBON AND VARNISH BUILD UP IN THE THROTTLE AND ON THE THROTTLE BLADE. THEY CAN CAUSE HESITATION AND IDLE ISSUES. SO WE FIGURED WE'D GIVE THIS ONE A THOROUGH CLEANING BEFORE WE MOVE FORWARD. WE'RE USING BRAKE CLEANER, BUT YOU CAN USE CARB CLEANER OR ANYTHING THAT WILL SOFTEN UP THE CARBON DEPOSITS SO IT CAN BE WIPED AWAY WITH A RAG. NOW THE BUILD UP IS CAUSED BY CRANK CASE VENT VAPORS THAT ARE RECYCLED THROUGH THE INTAKE. AND UNFORTUNATELY THEY STICK TO PARTS. NOW SOME OF IT CAN BE KIND OF CAKED ON AND STUBBORN, SO YOU CAN USE A PICK OR A SMALL SCREW DRIVER TO SCRAPE IT AWAY. JUST DON'T GET CARRIED AWAY. THEN JUST REINSTALL YOUR LIKE NEW THROTTLE BODY ASSUMING YOUR THROTTLE BODY GASKET'S STILL IN GOOD SHAPE. AND THE MOUNTING STUDS ARE SET IN THE PLASTIC INTAKE, SO DON'T OVER TORQUE THEM WHEN TIGHTENING THEM DOWN.

AND WITH THE MAINTENANCE OUT OF THE WAY, THE NEXT STEP IS

INSTALLING THE FACTORY MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR INTO THE SUMMIT RACING COLD AIR INTAKE AND PREP IT FOR INSTALLATION. AFTER INSTALLING THE GASKET ON ONE SIDE OF THE MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR, PASSES THROUGH THE HEAT SHIELD, DON'T FORGET THE GASKET ON THE OTHER SIDE. MARKED, TOP, THERE WE ARE. JUST DON'T OVER TIGHTEN THESE SCREWS.

NEXT INSTALL THE HEAT SHIELD INTO FACTORY HOLES USING THE PROVIDED HARDWARE. THEN YOU CAN RECONNECT YOUR MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR AND FOLLOW THAT BY INSTALLING THE INTAKE TUBE IN BETWEEN THE THROTTLE BODY AND THE MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR.

NOW BEFORE INSTALLING THE AIR FILTER IT MUST BE OILED. THE OIL IS WHAT HELPS CAPTURE ANY FINE PARTICLES OR DIRT. THEN SIMPLY CLAMP IT TO THE AIR FILTER ADAPTER.

(KEVIN)>> HEY GUYS, WELCOME BACK TO TRUCKS. WELL NOW THAT WE'VE ALLOWED OUR SIERRA TO INHALE BETTER, IT'S TIME TO ALLOW IT TO EXHALE JUST AS WELL, AND THAT MEANS A LESS RESTRICTIVE EXHAUST SYSTEM. BUT HERE'S A DILEMMA. THIS FACTORY EXHAUST SYSTEM IS MADE OUT OF STAINLESS STEEL

AND CHANCES ARE THIS, EVEN WITH THIS SUITCASE, IS GONNA

OUT LAST THE REST OF THE TRUCK, BUT IT'S RESTRICTIVE AND IT JUST DOESN'T SOUND VERY GOOD. SO WE DON'T WANT TO REPLACE THIS LIFETIME UNIT WITH SOMETHING THAT'S GONNA RUST OUT FROM UNDER US. WELL HERE IS WHERE THE AFTERMARKET KICKS IN AND STEPS UP. THIS IS OUR NEW AMERICAN THUNDER SYSTEM FROM FLOWMASTER. NOW WE ALL KNOW THAT FLOWMASTER SIGNATURE SOUND AND THEY'VE GOT THAT COVERED WITH THIS 50 SERIES MUFFLER, WHICH ALSO ALLOWS US TO GO DUAL WITH A SINGLE INLET AND DUAL OUTLET. NOW IT IS A KIT, SO ALL THE HANGERS AND CLAMPS ARE THERE, BUT THE GOOD THING IS THAT ALL THE BENDS ARE MADE FROM 409 STAINLESS. WHICH MEANS IT'S GONNA LAST AS LONG AS THE OE SYSTEM, NO QUESTION, BUT THE COOL THING IS THEY PROVIDE ENOUGH BENDS SO THAT WE HAVE THE OPTION TO GO OUT THE SIDES OR OUT THE BACK BUMPER TRUE HOT ROD STYLE. NOW THIS IS A CAT BACK EXHAUST SYSTEM, SO IT STARTS

WITH A PIPE RIGHT AFTER THE CONVERTER. THIS PRIMARY TUBE IS SUPPORTED BY A FACTORY HANGER AND CONNECTS DIRECTLY TO THE MUFFLER. THE BACK OF THE MUFFLER IS WHERE IT SPLITS INTO DUAL EXHAUST. HANGERS AND RUBBER ISOLATORS ARE INCLUDED IN THE KIT AND

MOUNT TO AN EXISTING HOLE IN THE FRAME.

THIS KIT IS ENGINEERED FOR OUR TRUCK AND IT'S DESIGNED TO TUCK UP HIGH, WHICH IS GOOD FOR US BECAUSE WE MAY WANT TO LOWER THIS VEHICLE IN THE FUTURE.

THERE'S PLENTY OF CLEARANCE FOR PIPING TO GO AROUND THE SPARE TIRE, AND THIS IS WHERE YOU HAVE THE JUNCTION THAT LETS YOU EITHER GO OUT THE SIDES OF THE BED OR STRAIGHT OUT THE BACK OF THE BUMPER LIKE WE'RE GONNA DO. WE'RE GONNA HOLD OFF ON TIGHTENING EVERYTHING DOWN UNTIL WE CYCLE THE SUSPENSION TO MAKE SURE WE'VE GOT CLEARANCE.

NOW WITH THE COLD AIR KIT AND THE COOL SOUNDING FLOWMASTER

EXHAUST SYSTEM INSTALLED ONTO THIS ALREADY POTENT FIVETHREE LS, WE KNOW WE'RE GONNA SEE SOME PERFORMANCE GAINS, BUT THE ICING ON THE CAKE IS THE POWER PROGRAMMER, AND THE SUPER CHIPS FLASH PAQ IS GONNA GIVE US EXACTLY WHAT WE NEED, ANOTHER LITTLE KICK IN THE PANTS FOR PERFORMANCE. BUT IT'S NOT ALL ABOUT GO FAST. THE FLASH PAQ GIVES US THE OPTION TO ENHANCE TOWING, TO GET BETTER FUEL ECONOMY, OR TO PLAY AROUND WITH MORE POWER. AND IT JUST TAKES A FEW MINUTES TO TOGGLE THROUGH AND

REPROGRAM FOR EACH ONE OF THOSE SETTINGS, OR GO BACK TO STOCK EASILY. NOW THE FLASH PAQ GIVES YOU THE OPTION OF A QUICK TUNE, WHICH IS JUST SIMPLY PRESSING A BUTTON AND GOING. OR YOU CAN GET INTO THE ADVANCE SETTINGS, CUSTOM

CALIBRATE YOUR COMPONENTS TO SUIT YOUR NEEDS. UPDATES ARE AVAILABLE ONLINE. JUST AS SIMPLE AS PLUGGING IN A USB CABLE TO YOUR COMPUTER. THANKS FOR WATCHING, SEE YOU GUYS NEXT TIME.
