it all depends on what you are wanting to do. if your looking for a mild box that help in towing then yes the va would work well, but if you want to hot rod then you probably want the tst. i think it also depends on what you have done to your rig, ie. injectors, turbo, intake and muffler. i feel every box does something a little different, and all will please someone.

Thanks..

I have done an Afe filter and tube and a 4 inch exhaust.
I have a landscape co. and tow every day w/ a trailor weight of 3-4000 lbs.
An occ. ton or two of topsoil.
Just looking for that extra low end bite.
I have heard good things re: the Banks combo and the V.A{ I owned a V.A for my 1998 with good results.} I have heard that V.A is coming out with a newer box???


Any more help is appreciated.

Bill

Bill, have you seen Dougs postings and comparisons of most of the available boxes out there? If not, you'll have plenty of good reading ahead of you.

Bill, The new VA duration box is out and available. It is included in Doug's fueling box summary that Chris posted. This new VA box changes injection duration without changing fuel pressure and sounds like the one to get. It sounds like you're set up and ready for a box. I just hope you've got gauges.

I don't want to violate any advertising rules on here so PM me and I can let you know who I'm talking with to get one.

Cool

Bill if you're looking for good low-end for towing around the vA pressure box would work very nicely for you and costs much less than their new box. I hear it's smoother and more refined driveability-wise than the EZ. I know Jannetty Racing carries them for a good price.
