From what I understand:

The ECM is programed to bring on a little more timing and more fuel at lower rpms than the stock ecm.

Since it is actually the ecm that is reprogramed it does it without the smoke and mirrors that the add on boxes use.

It definitely works and for the most part I leave my TST box turned off.

Here is another thread you might find interesting - in case you run out of reading!

thanks for the links guys, been reading some of them.

I havent seen yet if the reflash is detectible if my truck went into the dealership?
My truck is still under warranty, so i would need my original ECM just in case it went to the dealer?
