Most definitely. Especially with the shifting. Very noticeable power increase also. Improved overall driveability. Got mine from MPT with the custom tunes.
So if they only support 305,with my motor,cams,longtubes,exhaust tuner etc should I bump to 24s? I'm kinda hoping to get over that at the crank.

If you think you'll get that high, sure. Problem is you don't have any power adders or increased CR. Even with your cams your unlikely to surpass 300. I had my block decked to .115 instead of the standard .120 so it bumped my CR to about 9.5. You'll be around 9.1 to 9.2.

I'm getting other bolt ons,I think 305 is probably reasonable to get to

300 is easy to get too. But it depends on the size the cams along with how aggressive the tune is.. I only got there with high compression and real extreme tuning.

I don't quite see 300hp. You won't have hardly any compression increase over a stock motor plus 38s or 40s will kill your power even with gears. They don't account for the physical weight or rolling resistance weight.
1lb tire = 8lb cargo weight.
So just guessing but a stock size 31" weighs 50lbs
And your 38" mud grappler probably weighs 150lbs
So..100lbs increase each x 4 x 8 = 3200lbs

My tires are 90 each,wheels are light. I'm talking at the crank man,not to the ground.
