You can do either. You will see a great inprovement by just grinding but you will see more with something like teh DennyT... ALOT deeper track. Here is a Video Comparing the two

There isn't enough metal in the stock pin to get as deep of a ramp as a Denny T or an Old Smokey. Stay away from the Bully Dog pins. They were making pins with too soft of metal, but they're also overpriced.

Wow! That a huge improvement over the stock ground pin and the Denny T pin... I think I know what I tell my buddy to order...

GET OVERIT how do u figure about bully dog pins, the old smokey pin was like 200 + and the bully dog pins are 180 and under, also the bully dog adds more power than the old smokey and all i've heard about the old smokey is bad stuff. but i wouldn't know im just a newbie

I run an Old Smokey (thanks Mike) I LOVE IT !! Cost me under 200 and took 15 minutes to install. Now when I burn onto the highway with my quads and trailer loaded I don't wonder if I'm going to get up to speed or not..... I know I will!!
