rokktech install...can't tell difference.

Installed a rokktech sensor. I can feel absolutely no difference in the truck. Could some of you tell a difference when you installed yours? I'm wondering if it moved enough to make a difference. I followed the instructions and rotated it clockwise as far as possible while I tightened the bolt back down. It looked like the whole was only oversized about 1/32". I could have done that to the stock one in about 5 minutes. Oh well, it's only money. Anyway, should I have noticed a difference?

Well, what exactly are they supposed to do, or what is the end result that those of you who got them were looking for?

What would happen if you rotated your stock one?

You should have felt a bit more bottom end power and you should get better mileage. I don't think the stock sensor is adjustable. Some of these trucks benefit greatly from certain mods while others see no gain.....

Without any performance boxes or chips you 'might' feel a difference with the Rokktech. My truck after the install I noticed the power surge that happens at 2k rpms moved down to 1500rpms. With the EZ on I don't notice it.
What you should see is a drop in EGTs of around 100 degrees or so.

I noticed quicker throttle responce, quicker spool up of the turbo. Now the truck has better bottom end, not huge difference but noticable. I haven't noticed any mileage gains, but then I drive it like I stole it. I didn't have any other mods on when I put the sensor on.
