Quad XZT versus standard 30/60/100 box MPG & installation

Here is my dilema.
I am considering these two boxes and am strictly looking for MPG increase and a little more juice at the stop light. I do not have gauges and so for lack of better words I am flying blind.
I figure from what I have read in other posts that on the 60 setting/XZT gauges are not that necessary. On that setting MPG increase better or worse with either box?

Installation? I am no major mechanic by no means, what/where would I need to connect the wires too? Would there be drilling, splicing, or is it plug and play?

See my sig for my truck details. Any suggestion/advice would help.

Thanks

It sounds to me like the XZT would be good for you. Its a little safer without gauges, should net you a couple mpg, and even with just 65 hp the difference in power is awesome!

Installation is super easy. All you do is unplug a couple wire harnesses and plug the XZT harness in to the factory sensors, then plug the factory harnesses into the XZT harness, run a wire into the cab through a grommet under the dash (behind the brake pedal), plug it into the box and velcro the box under the dash, and finally tidy up the harnesses with some zip ties. It shouldn't take you more than an hour, two at most.

You may wish to look at the Edge EZ also.
