With a car like that, the more the better. Atleast 4 more uploads/threads would do proper justice.

The paint on our cars is awesome. Your car is the same as mine. I've sprayed the front for rock chips, but everything is as delivered from Porsche.

Nice car!

CPR,

On a track you would be surprised at how close we are....It's seconds when the track is tight.

Just wanted to say your car looks simply awesome.

By the way, I just bought a 6.6 GMC Duramax, now that would give your Dodge some game! LOL

You will love it. Talk about power...unlocking a Dura or Cummins is like taking candy from a baby. FYI...upgrade your torque converter BEFORE anything else!!!!!!!

Very nice paint on the car and low miles on it too, especially for being an 86.

PM me, as I'm taking this 2003 2500 extended cab to my property next week. I'm an avid offroader. I've built my Toyota LX470 into a beast. This truck is for my staff at www.antlerridge.com. Granted, I drive our work trucks, but this 2003 2500 Duramax Extended Cab baby is getting a chip to go along with it's current 4" exhaust.

Any recommendations for a proper Chip?

It's a work truck that plows snow and hauls wood. It's replacing a 1985 Silverado 350 that is at it's last legs. I can't wait to chip this beast. I'm still amazed at the power of a engine that likes detonation........LOL

All the chips we went through were pretty good, but most just run wo...which=tremendous belching clouds of black smoke. I settled on the Banks six-gun (6 settings adjustable switch mounted inside) These give you the flexibility to adjust on the fly in increments, while still maintaining the safety features or like I do mount it under the dash where my idiots cannot adjust it...only me. Setting 6 bypasses ALL safety features (EGT shutdown, overboost, trans temp, etc.) and gives you everything she's got. These things are relatively indestructible.
