Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Power Upgrades

[PToomey]

I just changed my TPS and my truck is shifting great . Now I am thinking about a TST plate and 4 inch exhaust. What plate does anyone reccommend?

I'm trying to get power on a budget. How far can you go without sacrificing MPGs ? Lastly does anyone have thoughts on Suncoast TCs? Thanks alot in advance. Pat 95 2500 stock auto 2wd

a TST #4 would be a wicked plate in that truck but you will need to get the transmission built.

As you can see in sig I have a #5 in my 95, works great but the stock transmission will NOT like it!

Dont mess around with any other plate than TST. They are tried and true.



If you are on a budget, just skip the 4" and replace the cat and stock muffler with a walker. Unless you want the sound of the 4", a good 3" is good to 350hp or so... .



If you are fairly easy on the truck, you can probably get by with a #6 plate with the stock transmission. Otherwise, get an 8 or 10 from TST.



Your mpg shouldnt really be effected by a plate, as long as you dont always use the extra power. A plate comes into effect mainly at full throttle... .

With a little afc adjustment, Ive actually increased my mileage somehow.
