You'll get good mileage still really no matter what box you go with.
As for which one... it also depends on just how far you wanna go. You want just a lil bit or do you wanna go all out?
If it's just a lil extra you want... I have an Edge EZ I pulled off my truck before I traded it.

I kept the receipts and tracked the mileage... but never really checked them before and after. But around town with constant stop and go and not long trips, I was still getting 16-17 even being on it all the time. However when I got on the freeway, it jumped up maybe a mile or so.
I didn't notice much as far as pedal response... but when I got on it, I could definatly feel it pick up and go.
Oh, and yes I'm looking to get rid of it. I have the box and the paperwork should be with it too...

If you are planning on "using" that chip alot you better upgrade your transmission. They weren't designed for much more than about 375 HP. the only way I would chip a Cummins in a Dodge is with the stick.

Reffering to the Edge EZ? It's harmless and plenty safe on a stock auto as I only got 325/735 out of it at best.

*shrugs* Say 350+ shipping? It's an easy 500 part at most places and it was only used for a short time. Install... easy. The first time I played with it, it took me 10 minutes from hood open to close.

lol I have a bad habit... I get what I want. lol
As for the truck... short and simple: Military screwed up my pay, they fix it so now I owe them and the IRS. Gotta get lower monthly bills... so bike and truck go in.
