i am curious to see if i were to purchase a chip if i would notice any differnence in the way my truck drives?
does any one have an anti sway bar? do they work well?
what about air shocks for the rear to adjust sag in rear? do they work?
what about grannelli mass air sensors? i have a k and n and it sucks byitself.

my truck seems to be very sluggish? someone give me a clue on what to do. i love her and don't wanna sell it
 






Ok first what you need to do is post in the general explorations forum regarding a tuneup, or better yet do a search on it.

Actually you can do a search on anyone of the items you listed and find plenty of answers.

I replaced my stock sway bar with an Explorer express beefier bar and used poly vushings. It made a world of difference in handeling.
 






I had the DiabloSport chip for my V8 Mountaineer, and I would honestly have to say, it's not worth getting unless you have a fat wallet with a lot of spending cash. Most all chips require premium gasoline (92+), which costs more than 87. After doing some "testings," I found no improvement in fuel economy even when driving normally.

I called Diablo and asked about the performance results I should expect and the guy said, "lets say you do a quarter mile in 15 seconds ... with the chip, you'll be able to do a quarter mile in 14.80 seconds ... the chip can only do so much ... "

That's my FYI.
