Rokktech, Tone Ring Mod, Or Both???
Ok, now hear me out before you say I am an idiot, I hear enough of that from the old lady
When I run std. REVO with the mileage timing I hear a tiny bit of rattle, very tiny. I notice a big improvement in mileage and throttle response. The problem lies where I like the TNT in which under any setting I hear no rattle. I think the TNT could use some more timing in my application with the stock sticks. I already ordered a Rokktech sensor but I am impatient and want to see what it does now. Has anyone had one or the other with these aggressive Smarty tunes?
P.S. I fully understand what too much timing will do and I know it can be a silent killer.

I ran the Rokktech back in the early days of the SMARTY. Talk about rattle! I ended up removing the Rokktech and sold it to a buddy of mine.
Wish I had kept it so I could try it again with the newer programs.

I went ahead and did them both. On TNT SW9 timing 2 I still cant hear any rattle. When it is first started cold it might rattle for 1/2 second or so. I have driven a lot (for me anyways) this weekend and noticed a pretty good increase in MPG and the EGT's are down 50-100 cruising @ 65.
I had it on the dyno today and was beside it and did not hear any rattle even with water/meth spraying. I guess the big question is... am I running too much timing even though I cant hear it rattle? I fear the silent killer.
