My wife suprised me with a 2008 Nissan Titan for my B'day, right now it's factory except for the AT Tires I got put on it. I ride more street than off road but I live rural an will hop off road whenever the mood to explore comes over me.

I was reading and found out that the rotors have a tendancy to warp if used heavy, like when towing. Does anyone know how true this is? Do I have to update just the rotors or the whole braking system?

I like the way this truck has the power I want, but I would like to increase the GPM without giving up to much on the power. Would changing the cold air intake do what I want or not?

Happy Birthday, wow, She gotta sister?? I did have a friend of mine tell me he had to replace his rotors at only 50k miles on his Titan. I don't know for sure, but there is probably a good rotor upgrade out there. A cross drilled slotted rotor will give you extra cooling and help them live longer, as well as prevent brake fade longer. I did this upgrade on my Chevy and it makes a difference.
Yes, a cold air intake can increase fuel economy and upper RPM power. I will say though that I hear a lot of guys on here reporting the K&N type filter was a bad idea if ya ride where it's dusty/sandy.
