Acceleration

A quick question. With all of the boxes that are available, what is the best for providing quick acceleration? I test drove a 600 automatic 3:73 and from a dead stop on dry pavement it would not break traction. I am not really looking for move HP but how can you eliminate the lag?

I'm running a edge box and a few other goodies but the box itself added the most improvement in off the line acceleration. From a dead stop its like night and day. Very little lag anymore. I know my box is probably giving the lowest hp improvement compared to tst or the banks setup but for now i'm still satisfied with it. Maybe someone else running a different box will chime in. Good luck.

Have you driven a truck with a DTT transmission? The stock transmission does not get the power to the ground and cannot utilize additional power efficiently. Don't waste your money on boxes until you get the transmission fixed.
