I'm a HUGE fan of the RCSB; love the maneuverability of the short wheelbase.

You guys have some amazing trucks; inspirational to say the least.

 

Here's mine: 2" level, 285/65r18 KO2s, Softopper and a few misc. bits.

(shamefully dirty; pic was just after tires got installed)

Nice Truck!

What lowering kit did you install and does it affect your turning radius?

Is that a BBK you installed or painted calipers? The rotors look large!

And most important, how is the handling on twisties?

Thanks!

Belltech, 4/6, front spindles and drop shocks, rear flip kit. I haven't noticed any loss of turning radius. 

Brake kit is the GM Performance 6 piston with 16.1" rotors.  

The truck handles, rides and stops great.  I have a supercharger I need to install.

Thanks for the info, I'll have to look into that kit. I was just on the lowering thread and asked Nasty for his opinion on a kit as well.

Are your rims 20" or larger to fit the BBK?

Your truck looks menacing!

I'm looking more for the sleeper look though...catch the unsuspecting Pony....LOL!

 

SC install is on my list down the road and I think that would be ultimate.

I was looking at Hennessy's pkg, but for the cost the hp gain didn't seem balanced, then again they're a business, so the high price is expected...just too high for me.

What would be your hp gain with your SC?

My wheels are 22", I have another set that's 20" also.  

 

I got the SLP TVS1900, they claim a 165hp increase at the flywheel with thier tune, but I'm going to get a custom dyno tune.

Just to keep the mods happy, I'll mention that the RCSB are awesome when lowered!

 

I like the look of your rims, but that counters the sleeper look...LOL!

Did you notice a big difference with the BBK?

I'm a believer in late braking!

 

That kit is much cheaper $$ than the Hennessy option, and better at balancing the HP/Wallet ratio!

Has the lowering affected your 4wheel or AWD in any way?

 

You'll need to start a new thread once that SC is installed because there will be a lot of questions from others.

Looking forward to hear the outcome of that install!

BBK=Big Brake Kit?:dunno:

Yup, Big Brake Kit.

You're correct Nasty, most of the money goes for the plaque. They don't do any internal upgrading, just install a SC.
