VA 3.2 stack??

Ok guys I've had the VA 3.2 on my truck for the last 110k miles, and its been flawless so far. But I'm looking to up the power "mainly from off idle to 2000rpms". My current box does great but it seems to me it lacks a little in the lower rpms. So whats your sudgestions, stack it with something or sell it and put something new on. I don't tow much but when I do i have no problems turning whatever I get off to maintain EGT's. Thanks in advance.

I liked mine stacked with an EZ. It perked it up nicely where you want, but it did smoke more. Any pressure box should do what you want but watch your egts.

What settings do you run your EZ on with day to day driving. I figured a simple pressure box would be the thing, but might as well see what everybody else has to say. Thanks

It stacks well with a Quadzilla box too but if you turn them both up you may see some high egts. I ran that stack for a while in my old 03...

Yup, not much low end.

I had a TS Ramifier stacked, but it smoked too much. However, the low end was a lot better. If I do decide to stack again, I'll probably go with Quad or EZ. But I'm going to try not to add any more "power" to the truck.

I had the EZ on 50hp and the VA on 70hp. That combo seemed to be very smooth, and the EZ gave it a little more umph of the line.

I run the VA3.2 with my Predator. On the 70hp setting I made the rwhp in my sig. When I turned it up to 130hp, I lost a couple. Draining the rail I think... I'm trying a few different things and some H2O and I should easily break the 600mark...

The xzt and 3.2 seem to play together pretty well on mine.

The VA3.2 is pretty good with just about anything. Good, solid, reliable, smooth power. It's like the underdog that no one talks about. I really like mine...
