Hey guys need your help spending some money Ive got an 02 dually, 4x4 auto. It now has, an k&n filter,4" exhaust and a Banks Big Hoss (70 horse) box. Im am deffinately getting torque converter and valve body, not going to say what brand (DTT) cause I dont want to start any wars. Also my truck has an open rear end so Im going to solve that with a locker of some kind. My dillema is should I go with a Comp box or go with a set of injectors. I allready have a box so Im leaning towards injectors... . your opinions and if injectors what size-brand etc. This will mostly be street driven and hot rodded Ive got a HEAVY foot. Thanks for your help much appreciated Oo.

Also one more thing... if Im spending this kinda money will I be able to "FEEL" a considerable difference in power. Truck is peppy now but not real athourative!!

i dont know as much about power generation as these other guys but as far as the rear end goes with the power, weight, and sheer size of the truck its a no brainer that detroit locker is the way to go. ARB also makes a pretty stout selectable unit.

ID SAY GO WITH THE DDII Injectors it seems to be what everyone does at your point . IMO

I would go EDM's whether it be a Mach 1. 5 or a 2. First injectors, then an Edge Comp, then a HX-35/40 or a full 40.

Joe, I'm running 1,5 EDM's with a CaTCHER. Bob's right! They make beautiful music together. I chose 1. 5's to maximize fuel economy. The combination gives me 2-3 mpg more than I got stock.
