What are the goals for your truck, and do you have gauges? The Comp will deliver unbeatable power, but that's all it does. An EJWA has gauges, turbo timer, alerts, can view and clear codes, and much more.

I suggest a Smarty and mechanical gauges then. It's only about a 65 horsepower increase, but its all bottom end power. The mileage setting does its job, that's for sure. I am very happy with what it does for mileage.
Also, and engine is a big air pump. The better it can breath, intake and exhaust, the more efficient it will be.

First thing is checking the fuel pressure. Even if you borrow a gauge and rough install it. A $500 lift pump, for a decent one, will save you $1000+ for an injection pump.
