Rokktech crank sensor or the Tone Ring Mod. Both do the same ting, essentially. One costs about $75.00 and installs in minutes and the other is free but requires that you do a little work to your crank sensor tone ring. Do a search and you can decide which you prefer. I've done both and the TRM really helped the bottom end on my 03 SO. I have the Rokktech on my 07 and the difference was not so great....

75 bucks? You sure they are that expensive?

Seriously though, I think somethin like an mp8 or ez should help your low end, just use it in moderation.

i had my DIY cranksensor (easier than a TRM) on my 04.

with the BDDLPP on PERF it would "timing rattle" once in a blue moon.
called BD and talked to one of their engineers, he confirmed this was too much timing on SOME trucks due to manufacturing variations.

was worth it though.

put the DIY sensor on the 06, kinda blah,
the 04 had 4:10's and the BDDLPP,
the 06 has the DIY sensor, and a Quad Boost fooler, 3:73;s

the 06 is not all that it could be.
<mumbles...i will NOT box this truck...i will NOT box this truck....>

i vote for the cranksensor

I don't know if you have an auto or stick. But if you have the auto you might want to look at a better TC & VB. I know that when I just re-adjusted the front bands on the tranny it made a big difference in feel. Also you might want to look at the thread on "CP3 Mod" for modifying your FCA. This will raise pressure & give you more bottom end. Otherwise there is aways a cam.

Swap out the gears and gain back what you lost by puting those big old 37s on it.

Put an XZT with the stacking program on it. It may not make the highest dyno number but, it feels awful good down low and has better throttle response than anything else.

Sure either are viable choices... MP-8 for me till I am sold on something else.

I would both the MP-8, Quad, VA C3.1 over the EZ and other non adjustable or non boost fooling pressure boxes.

What is that? Do you sell XZT's that are programed specifically to be used in conjunction with a programmer (and are diff than the std/race versions)? Or does one purchase an XZT and send it back to you to be changed?
