In the classifieds over on turbodieselregister.com, there is a TST powermax comp box for sale in the classifieds that is for a 01, but i believe with the wiring harnesses that these come with, for twenty bucks you can buy the appropriate map sensor kit and change it out. My harness came with and 02 map sensor and i called TST and they sent me and 01 map sensor. Just a thought.

Ok big blue, you don't have the comp version do you??
If so, how much of a difference is there in the drag comp and a plan ole TST box??
I've heard that comp verison of the TST gives you that top end shudder and it's not really needed.
My buddy had the EZ/TST pm3 stack and it was awesome for one pull.Then the clutch, headgasket, and injector seals went out.Out came the chips and he sold the truck the next day for more than he gave for it and drove it a year.

yeah i did get some more seat time over the weekend, i am still amazed at how much power it makes. Lots of power and less smoke. I took my buddy for a ride he he could not believe the difference between the TST and the Comp. He said that the new box made the Drag comp look silly. This box sits you back in the seat alot harder then the Drag comp did. All in all, i am happy with it, i want to get to the dyno and track soon. Did you get yours yet?

just ordered it. should be here friday at the latest. i cant wait. so TST VS. DRAG comp, TST wins huh? i just dont understand one thing. how is it a FUEL only box, gives you more of a SOP feeling, and you get less SMOKE?i thought more smoke equals more fuel and power to be made?

With my TST off I get a good amount of smoke with the 5s, turn the box on 1-2 and it is a noticible amount of less smoke, I think what is happening is that because it spools quicker it clears up the smoke that much faster

How does the TST Comp perform against the Redline box? I am debating getting the TST Comp box and stacking it with my drag comp in ez mode, or getting the Redline box and stacking it with my drag comp in ez mode. That is if the Redline is all fuel and no timing, which I believe is right. I am wanting to get in to sled pulling and was told by Brad Ingrams father in law at a pull in Owensville that I should get a Redline Box to get some more RPM's. I know that I will probably need to get stronger valve springs and whatever else I need to run that high of RPM's.

i think you are right. the REDLINE is the highest most aggresive hp box available. then would have to be the FMS box then from what i am being told the TSTcomp box, then the DRAG comp box and so on. the only thing is the REDLINE is VERY VERY high in price

Does anybody know what all the Redline does? Is it all fuel or does it have some timing also? I can't seem to find it on Blue Chip's website. Anybody have a Redline? If so how do you like it?
