Must Have Mods, Upgrades, and Accessories for your Colorado ZR2

[@AlphaBiohazard]

Nice upgrades! Just curious, was your exhaust kit a DEF delete also? I did see one that had the delete. Also did it improve your MPGs by any chance?

[@dannysavagedraftguru]

Will muffler delete throw codes ?

[@matt13ross]

An exhaust delete will.

[@chrismair8161]

1. A Blower. 2. 3 inch Cat back exhaust. 3. Head on a swivel. Mine does 435hp at 5000Rpm and an Eight speed. From 120 to 240km takes 3.4 seconds. I do not have a Governor.

[@scotw67]

Do you have a link to the Pro Clip phone mount? I can’t find the model you have, and that’s the one I want. Thanks!

[@matt13ross]

They don't make this one anymore.

[@michaelcorkhill5296]

Any particular reason you picked the datin shock skids over the 589 fabrication shock skids?

[@matt13ross]

I think because 589 wasn't in stock at the time. they all work the same IMO.

[@jimnygoingplaces]

Awesome content!

[@matt13ross]

Thanks I appreciate it!

I recommend doing the interior led upgrade I did and it makes the inside at night much nicer. here is a for u linkD15 Lighting LED Interior Light Kit for Chevy Colorado GMC Canyon 2015-2020 6000k White Map Dome Visor Cargo License Plate Bulbs (13 Pieces) www.amazon.com/dp/B08268H2DF/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_fabt1_EZOXFbTZVX3T4?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

Definitely swap the interior lights with LEDs. Huge difference on mine!

[@matt13ross]

I'm worried they'd be too bright and obnoxious.

[@rayneleaf]

@@matt13ross they're not, perfect amount of light just for a more modern look. Got mine at hidnation

[@dantheman9395]

Love this. I’m considering the ZR2

[@matt13ross]

I think a diesel ZR2 is a perfect daily driver.

[@dansherwood1043]

It needs another 50-75 hp and tq and should be getting 30mpg. The newer model coming with the turbo4 should come stock with 315/325 & at least 25mpg's. High flow cat, down pipe, exhaust and tune could easily add 50-75 hp and 2-3 mpg's if ecm can be cracked. I think I'm waiting on that from my 385hp Tacoma.

[@quintili1]

My list of mods is pretty long now. Relentless Swingarm rear bumper, SOS frame mounted sliders, AEV skidplates, Timbren bumpstops, Eibach leveling springs, Datin Fab shock skids, 589 Fab driveshaft, Alpha Equipt wheels, Milestar Patagonia MTs, S&B Intake, AFE Hi Tuck exhaust, 589 Hi lift jack mount. I still need a front bumper and winch. Also Just bought the new AEV 33" tire clearance kit. I may try and run the 34X10.50 BFG KO2's. I could spend so much money on this truck.

[@matt13ross]

Damn that’s a list! I’ll be there someday. I want front and rear bumpers too. Eventually long travel and wide body

[@chanceogden]

Great vid !!!! Editing was clean 👍

[@matt13ross]

Thanks!

[@myriadshalaks]

isn't tire like that too unbalanced for something like say rock crawling?

[@matt13ross]

Huh? The tires are balanced

[@myriadshalaks]

@@matt13ross I mean the spare not centered

[@myriadshalaks]

I don't know I'm asking. usually tire in center for equql weight distribution . does it make much difference?

[@matt13ross]

Ohhh, not it's not that heavy.

[@gregsobek722]

Just a simple suggestion, LED bulbs in the cab of your truck. Unbelievable difference !

[@matt13ross]

I’m worried because some of them are too bright and too blue.

What tune are you running? HDs tune ? Your located in the US correct? Any issues with the tune? feel a power difference?

[@matt13ross]

No issues with the truck at all

[@ColdCircleX]

Cool video. Recommend to people with duramax to do a ibanks gauge with a block8head vent pod (if you can find it in stock) looks super clean. Always nice to know what the truck is doing especially in a diesel

[@matt13ross]

That’s on my list!!

[@ColdCircleX]

@@matt13ross Yeah it’s totally worth it. I shared it on the zr2 page on Facebook. Think I seen you on that or the diesel one not sure

[@matt13ross]

You probably saw me. Maybe I’ll order one if there is a Black Friday deal.

[@H0CKEY604]

Love the videos , keep em coming Ever consider trying a throttle mod , like the iDrive or Pedal Commander ?

[@matt13ross]

I’ve never had a pedal commander, but the tune I have was a huge increase in throttle response.

[@jonnygetahobby8549]

Sweet video. Love the truck and setup! I just picked up a 2020 ZR2 Bison a few weeks ago. So I was wondering where you got that cell phone holder mount from??

[@matt13ross]

Proclip USA

[@jonnygetahobby8549]

Yeah I was in their website, but it doesn’t look like they make the one you have anymore 😕

Didn’t show the shift knob. Good video tho.

I forgot a few things, happens!

[@quicogarcia9552]

You mind me asking witch pro phone clip you got and what magnets you use? I actually like this set up but instead of the phone I want to use it for sPod. You think it’ll work with the magnets?

[@quicogarcia9552]

Centered or Angled mount? You just put the magnet on the clip and didn’t purchase the clip for the phone right?

[@matt13ross]

I used proclip USA but if you look or their website the one I got is no longer available. I got a generic phone magnet kit on eBay.

[@Seraphimfitness]

Half your links don't work, man

That's because this video is years old lol

[@DentfixExpress15]

"Raptor Lights" is a trend that needs to stop, unless you have a Raptor!

[@matt13ross]

What if I call them “TRX” lights?

[@DentfixExpress15]

@@matt13ross Due to DOT regulations the Raptor and TRX (because they are 80" wide or more) are required to have the three lights in the center and one on each side. I think they look ridiculous on any other vehicle. I see people installing the three center lights on everything here in Connecticut!

[@matt13ross]

I know why they have them, and I like them. Someday I’d like to widebody and long travel my truck so the lights would be a little more appropriate.

[@a4SilverBullet]

Silly question, but when you added the leveling kit, did it cause the "level indicator" on the speedo display to be thrown off? Like say that the front end of the truck is higher? Thanks!

[@matt13ross]

I can’t say I looked at it before the level but I don’t notice anything abnormal now.

[@a4SilverBullet]

@@matt13ross Cool thanks man! I have only used it to "level" the truck for camping trips. I just ordered a leveling kit for mine and was curious if it was going to say the front end is like 2 degrees high or something. Not that it matters haha

[@matt13ross]

What level kit did you get?

[@a4SilverBullet]

@@matt13ross Just went with the Rough Country 1" level. I think that's the one you have also. The next mod for me is going to be installing those LED reverse lights. The backup camera SUCKS.

[@matt13ross]

Mine is the 589 fab one but it’s basically the same. Led pods are a great upgrade!

[@fadecomic]

Why does everyone level their trucks? I just don’t see the appeal, but to each their own.

[@matt13ross]

Mainly for the look and slightly better tire clearance.

[@michaelbaltimore2146]

What type of tune do you have? New to my duramax zr2 and haven't done any mods yet.

[@nathanyoung3158]

I do have a question for you do you have a cold air intake on your Colorado I have one but I cannot find a filter for it it's been 2 months and I got to get a filter so I'm debating either going back to stock or getting another brand because I don't know if they'll ever come back out with that air filter at this rate and I know for sure what the benefit of a cold air intake is I know it gives it more air but I still don't see a point

[@matt13ross]

Mine is stock, I don’t think intakes do a whole lot but I’m looking into them. What brand is yours?

[@berkoskilandscaping4247]

Hey I’m curious about inspections when you have the delete and tune. Does it affect it at all or do inspections go easy as usual?

[@matt13ross]

If you delete you will most likely fail inspection depending on your state.

[@nathanyoung3158]

You know what you might do another upgrade for your truck is putting boost Auto Mirrors on with the LED back of light on the mirrors those lights on those mirrors are super bright that will blind you

[@matt13ross]

I have those on my full size Duramax. I don’t want big mirrors on this truck though. The back up LEDs are nice!
