Pro Touring 2009 GMC Sierra

[burntnova]

So I have been stationed here in Germany for just about a year now and I have been toying with the idea of building my 2009 Crew cab GMC sierra for some track time and of course the Shock & Aww factor that I would get from most Europeans. When they see a full size American truck performs as well as I would like it to.
I don’t want to completely dismantle my truck and put racing seats in it, but I would like to build the truck to perform well at any open track days at the many road courses here such as Hockenheimring, Nurburgring and the many others that are here in Europe.
Sorry my plan is very general right now but I’m still working on it and would appreciate any help or suggestions. I haven’t built a pro touring vehicle let alone a full size truck…lol But when everyone tells me that I’m crazy and all I’m doing is wasting my money and time that just makes me want to do it even more to prove everyone wrong. I am a firm believer if there is a will there is a way!
My plan thus far is as follows:
Engine Performance:
- Vortech Supercharger
- Programmer
- Full Exhaust System
Brakes & Suspension:
- 4/5 lowering kit
- Bigger sway bars
- Big brake kit (haven’t decided on a kit)
Wheels:
- Looking at 22” Rushforth’s (haven’t settled on a wheel yet)
And a few minor cosmetic items to help spruce up the exterior.

I’m going to be building this truck myself so if any of you can give me any advice on what I might be able to add to the build or change that would help the handling & performance on the truck please help me out. I haven’t found much help with this idea and help is what I need.
