What's up guys. Just sayin hi. New to the group, just bought my first lightning. I've always wanted one and I'm pretty excited about it. Any reccommendations on mods? I already have CAI, bassani exhaust, and a diablosport tuner.

Thanks guys. My next mod is going to be a pulley. The truck is daily driven so I don't want to go more than 12 pounds. Any suggestions? Also, I'm thinking on getting the calvert racing caltrac traction bar. Heard great things about them but never from any lightning owners. Anyone have the calrracs and can help me out?

If you are only going for 12 pounds, I would say dont bother and save your money. You can have daily driver reliability with 14 pounds.. Most of the guys I know have Metco traction bars but I have heard of the Caltracs, just not sure of the outcome..

Cal tracs suck for a daily driver they rattle as they are a moving part. Go with Metcos
