Budget.

Once you start nodding you will start breaking shite. Especially in a 4x4.

Labor is about the same price as the product.

With a 6.2, I'd go cam, full exhaust, gears and a custom tune and be done. Still talking several thousand dollars.

Supercharger last.

To do it right requires a lot of changes.

What are you trying to accomplish?

By far, the best advice in this thread. At least OP is starting with the gas engine to mod.

With what you spend on mods to actually make a difference you could trade in for a diesel.

This is where I'm leaning now. I'm a little hesitant now on a supercharger since it sounds like a huge overall investment.

To those mentioning a diesel, some day in the future i want a turbo diesel for fun. I don't see ever actually needing one though
