What is everyones opinion on the best computer upgrade (I guess that's what it's called) for my truck? I won't pull much. Mainly a daily driver. I also have a 4" Banks exhaust for it, when my buddy gets his new truck and I get his old exhaust. It sounds like the one which I believe is made by TST (is that what everyone calls the "EZ"?) may be the one I want. From what I here it is adjustable. Just wondering, any help will be great.

Good question! Probably get a lot of different answers. Not sure there is all that much difference. The one I've heard the most about and I am having installed in my truck this week is the ISB Plug and Power. I'm also having a 4" exhaust, Exhaust Brake and gauges installed. Hopefully, that will be enough to pull my 5th wheel nicely. If I need more power, I'll change injectors, which will mean a new clutch and a few other things. I have heard the EZ is better if you plan on installing injectors as well. It's adjustable.

I just installed Edge EZ last week and love it to death. Almost 2 mpg off the bat, and a lot more ponies and torque. Going up the 5-ish percent grade, I'm gaining 15mph and still accellerating over stock.

Email me if you want pricing and dealer... I got mine real cheap.

Next???

SCREAMNEAGLE, the EZ box is made by Edge products. TST makes the Powermax 1,2 and 3. They also make the Powermax 3 adjustable. The EZ is plug and play. The Powermax requires that you tap into a wire on the VP44 fuel pump. The EZ box is a minor fueling device while the Powermax, at least the PM3, is a major fueling device. I would suggest getting in at least the EGT gauge before you install either box, or any other for that matter. Put the thermocouple in pre-turbo (exhaust manifold) as you plan to Bomb your truck. Then I would add the EZ box. I did this to my ETH and I think you will be real happy with this simple upgrade, plenty of power and it won't be too hard on your clutch. If you went directly to the Powermax or any other major fueling box, the clutch's live will be very short. Hope this helps. Forgot to add... the EZ is adjustable in terms of when the fuel is added in relationship to boost. There is a jumper setting inside the box that allows you to adapt the box to your needs. Setting one (most aggressive, and, I believe the way box ships from Edge) worked real well with my then otherwise stock ETH.
