Egt's are not an issue for me, however a clutch was needed after the first test drive w/ injectors and va5.

I would get a Smarty before injectors....especially if you tow. Smarty is by far the strongest "low end" grunt performance enhancer on the market today. If you don't plan on upgrading your turbo....add a set of RV275 injectors & you will have a awesome towing truck that can still get up & go. My brother has a Smarty & RV275 injectors....his truck really pulls a trailer well & runs like a raped ape when empty. Just my $.02

since you already have an ez, a set of jammer nozzles would be best IMO. how much do you tow? how often? you shouldnt have a problem with stage 3's. i towed 20k+ with 4's and a comp....

I tow about 10,000-15,000 a few times a week..but it might end up being more often then that...so im wanting to get it setup mainly for towing....i can get a turbo if i really need to...i dont wanna just through money away on stuff i can do without..i figured on upgraded sumday in the future, just hated to have to do it all at once,,esp since ill prob be needing a clutch soon., but i do want to be able to tow 10,000-15,000 without much trouble and without getting too hot...so

You will love the stage 3 nozzles. I run my truck with my SuperChips when empty but when pulling I turn off the SC and just run the injectors. So far, EGT's have'nt really been an issue. The highest I've had them was last weekend while I was pulling a 6% grade and hit 1200. All I did was back out of it a little and they came right down. EGT's are very manageable with the stage 3's.

Most go with the III's if they are towing.. and will be using a stock turbo... If its heavy.. just watch your EGT's.. and may have to drop the EZ to a lower setting... On the comp box I usually tow on level 1.. if its heavy.. I'll turn the box off...
You'll be happy with what you ordered.. usually those that get the 1,2 or 4's.. usually wish they would have gone bigger.. never seem to hear that from those that went with the 3's or 5's... (Jammers.)
