Van Aaken Performance Box

I can get a Van Aaken box for my truck for a steal of a deal. Where do they compare to the Edge EZ? Are they better, same, or what? Just want to hear some opinions before I jump..

i have a van akken,its an older one without a boost fooler,plugs directly into injection pump.was a nice increase in tourque.also got it for a good deal.just got a comp and with the comp in ez mode she makes more power than the van aaken i have,yours may be diferent if it has the map sensor plug.they are probaly close to the same.i stacked my van akken with the comp on level 3 makes more power than comp alone on 5/5.if its a good deal grab her.thier a good bang for the buck

I have had mine for a month now and love it!!! Can't say how it is compared to the edge but I love the jump I get when the boost hits about 12 pounds!! It was super easy to install and I would do it again in a second. BTW, I got mine from DPP for about 400

I have the Van Aaken V5. It works great for towing, good bottom
end power and increased throttle response.With RV275 injectors
combo tows real good and no EGT issues.

I got the V5 version , so I didn't have to plug into
the injection pump directly and remove the "warrenty void"
sticker thats over the pump plug. V5 version plugs into
the MAP plug and diagnostic port.
