Rokktech Sensor for 04.5

I did the sensor mod just so I could return the truck to 100% stock if a waranty issue came up.
Those who want to do the tone ring mod to save $60 great but my waranty is worth $60 if that makes me a worry wart in someones eye's so be it. it was piece of mind to me. If they found a modified tone ring your waranty is gone. If I would have already voided my waranty somewhere else I would have done the tone ring mod.
I have the 04.5 and my milage sucked out ofthe gate. 13-14 around town. 15-16 hwy best. I had the milage tsb performed, I did the sensor. right now I am at about 15 around town and 17-18 hwy only. I am a bad example because I have 37's but the one day I drove my truck stock it was not showing more than 14-15 on the overhead.
so I got about .5mpg on the tsb flash and .5 mpg on the sensor and about 1mpg as the engine broke in I think.
You are not going to get milage out of an exhaust on an 04.5 IMO as it already is 4". I am am not sure an air filter is going to do. I was going to get one but my nieghbor but an airaid on his 04 555 and lost 1mpg. So I have left that alone.
I see people posting in great mileage but my truck has never delivered it. I wasthinking of just trying the quad xzt module for a milage only kind of mod. If I could get my truck to 16 around town and 18-19 hwy with my tires I would be happy.

You can bet that DC knows about this modification...both the tone ring mod and the sensor mod...but it would take a trained eye to notice it. But, if my warranty is voided it will be because of the other modifications that I have made to my truck...not the tone ring.
