You'll prob be disapointed with the TST by itself. It's more of a top end box. It stacks awesome but doesn't make much power on the bottom end. Also TST gets pretty toasty, and they rate HP at the crank.

As a stand alone box I'd run the bully dog. better overall performance and has more power on the bottom end. I had problems with Bully Dog but then again I had problems with the TST as well.

TST is a box, the Bully Dog(triple dog) is a programmer? Two different animals.

You can tell by my answer that I am not familiar with BD's product.

TST is a great product, and has plenty of low end with the twins program, especially now that you can add pressure. A number of folks used to stack the R37 TST with Bully Dog and had great success. I stacked my R37 with EZ for the pressure, and dynoed right at 500hp with stock injectors and Silver62.

I believe the new TST is more expensive than Bully Dog's TD, but the TST would be my choice.

You do not have your sig filled out, but by your title, I am assuming you have an 04? TST was having troubles with 06 trucks. I just re-read your post, which TST do you have? Doesn't matter, keep the TST.

I think you might be wrong my friend qoute from tstproducts.com

"The maximum power gains we've seen to date is an extra 195 whp (wheel horsepower) at 2900 rpm and an extra 600 pound-feet of torque at 1700 rpm. "
