There are many products, the ones i hear good reviews about are from PPE Economy Xcelerator(50-120hp), Quadzilla Stealth Tuner(30-135hp), and Edge Juice(30-120hp).

PPE HOT+2 level 4 until I get trans done and a lift pump, I am getting ready to send it off to get updated to the E.T. version so I can turn the defuel on and off, don't think I will ever turn my truck up that high or buy dual fuelers. Still saving fro the Fleece performance trans, and I would love to get one of Braydens turbos. I have a thin wallet problem.

so, would the triple dog or quadzilla be pretty much fine for my application or would you stay simple with hypertech and superchip? still dont really understand the difference. and why is everybody putting on tie rod sleeves? is this a strength add or a must for larger tires? (still learning)

I prefer the Quad...... TieRod sleaves give added strength to your stock TieRods which can break on hard launches.....

Its a very strong recommendation to put on tie rod sleeves if your going to do some launches in 4wd or any wheelin for that matter. also try looking into some Pitman and Idler supports it will make your truck feel like new and help you track straight as an arrow.

Tie rods have been bent or broken on stock trucks when pulling hard in 4x4,like trying to pull out a small tree or something.

See some of 2500HeavyDuty video's the one with him pulling and the one where he is on the street and you will see what stock tie rods look like under WOT or a heavy load.
