modding a weeping demon....possibly :S

I have an Ibanez WD7 wah ( not the wisest decision ive made :p). I use it with a U.S.A EHX Big Muff. I was wondering how i could mod it so that it sounds better with the muff? I ask this becuase i heard you can do something to an original crybaby to make it adjust to a lower frequency, so i just want to know if you can do the same thing with a WD7.
 
That is a killer pedal. Wah's "wah" by changing the EQ. They sweep though the ranges. As you know, the EQ has a significant effect on other pedals (like distortion) after it in the chain. Maybe put it after the fuzz?
 
I do the opposite... EHX BBM into Weeping Demon. I like the Wah sound to be more pronounced when using the wah, whereas by using the muff after the wah, the Muff sounds stronger toe-down, and weaker heel-down...

I use an overdrive (Tecvh21 VTB) after the wah instead. With the BBM, WD7 and VTB active all at once, I can get some deafening, haunting, foot-controlled evil shrills out of it.
 
i use the distortion then the wd7. there seems to be a problem...all of you guys are using the bass big muff and im using the original (the bass one wasnt out yet :( ) ill try to switch them around. Are you using the low frequency switch on the wd7? because when i have the low frequency switch on there is a great decrease in volume when i bring the pedal back. even when i dont bring it back all the way it still does this. i'll try tinkering around with it. thanks for the advice :D
