I'm starting to research for the power mods for the truck. I am not planning to race or pull sleds, just want more power for fun as well as towing. The truck currently has a 4" exhaust, BD-X monitor, AFE intake. It's the 305/555 engine, 6-speed NV5600, 3.73 rear end. I am planning on putting 35's on the truck at some point. I'm not planning on putting in the 4.10's but will if I need to after the mods.

I'm looking for adjustability on the fly and the most power for the money. Looking on TST's site I see the PowerMaxCR with R49 ($899.00) and the PowerMaxCR R37 & Fass Pump. The Fass pump is needed if I want to take full advantage of the TST right? Would it require other mods?

Is there a site I can learn more about all the different mods, what they do, what's necessary to go with the mods, etc? I know this site has a lot of information, but I don't know enough yet to even ask educated questions.

Thanks.

The TST will give you the most power for the buck and is stackable with pressure boxes when you want more later. There is also the twins flash TST that will give you fuel earlier in RPM's but is the same overall fueling as the standard. If you stay below 5/5 on the TST your stock turbo and clutch should be OK but will die a quick death on anything above that. and you have to do the FASS or some other fuel system above 5/5 also. there are 3 different TST controllers: the R37 that is just HP and torque levels, the R47 that adds Gauges and control of EGT based defueling, and finally the R49 that adds boost based defueling and a turbo temp monitor to the mix.
As to the questions, here is a good place to ask and the only dumb question is the one not asked!

Thanks. How about what I am hearing about TST causing codes to be thrown more often than other units? Also, you think the NV5600 will not be able to take the punishment? I know the clutch would be toast. Have you used both the Edge and TST products?

The trans itself will be fine, it the stock clutch that will be screaming mercy.

Can you use the twins program on a stock Auto trans?
Wanting more low end power.

Um NO the tranny will certainly die a quick death!

As to codes I do get the 606 code all the time and 336 once in a blue moon. the 606 won't set the CEL but the 336 code does but it shuts off after roughly 5 key cycles
