Banks Six Gun or Edge Evolution...Cant decide

Looking to get a little more power and fuel mileage. Which one of these is the best one to go with? The only other mod I have is the Banks ram air for now.

Thats good to know about the Evolution. I kinda been thinking about the Spartan, but its pretty expensive. I rarely tow heavy loads, mostly just dirtbikes, and occasionally a deer lease rig. I have heard of people getting big mpg gains with the Spartan though. Do you have to do a DPF delete with the Spartan? I dont want to mess with that, I would like to keep my factory warranty.

I am running the banks, they do not delete the dPF. it is a clean tune that works with the PCM and maintains all the factory safeties.

Yes I hear Spartan will get better mpg's with getting rid of the emissions but I myself would not do that.

To the best of my knowlege no. Only the ram air is CARB certified. I think they have applied.

There are no e.o. numbers in CA yet because the state doesn't have an actual sniffer test for them. Our info has been submited though.
