Careful with the HY35 spooler you've got in there (don't feel bad, I have the same one...for now.) Any injectors over stock (even stock) will give you some pretty gnarly EGTs...

If you don't do much towing the RV275's would go good with the Edge EZ.

I ran much cooler with rv275's and my hy than I did with stockers. I towed quite a bit with no issues. I know a guy running 200's and a hy with no issues but I think he lies or is just plain nuts. I think you will be fine with a set of rv's and towing. Might want a better box in the future.

It is not hard for me to hit 1150 or so now on the pyro just pulling a long hill. My trans is completely stock also. How much more power would the 275s give me. The mileage boost is what I really want but power is always good too. I just dont know what to do.

200's on a HY is going to get hot and hot fast. My old 01 Auto had a Comp with 150's and it would peg the EGT gauge before the truck had moved 20 feet.

The RV's will add around 40-50hp and are a very clean burning Injector. You will be fine with them an EZ on a stock Turbo.
