Bigger sticks or new box?

After I get some tranny work, I could use some advice on what would give the next biggest bang for buck HP boost. Also, what is meant by stacking - would I just add another box and leave my edge connected?
Last question, any questimate on my current HP? Thanks.

Keep what you got and stack the Smarty with the EZ. You'll love it, find a member near you that has one and try it.

Sell the EZ and pick up a used COMP or DRAG COMP

100hp sticks and comp box with stock turbo will get warm if you drive it too hard but will make for a quick truck and good towing combo with the box turned down on level 3

the EZ smarty stack is pointless tho scott, they do the same thing bascially. sell the EZ and buy the comp like brett said

would I be right in thinking that I would be looking at another 50 hp or more with a comp? Any guess where about I am now?

You'd deffenitly notice a big difference if you went to a comp, but your probably at around 390ish

Around 300hp is my guess.

He'd be in the 350-375 range, I bet. 40hp sticks, comp and HRVP. I've got Smarty, HRVP and 80 hp sticks, and I did 376. EGT's should be plenty warm.
