Ditching the Smarty - need advice.
I am looking for advice on what to stack with a TST on an 04.5. It has an AirDog, AFE intake, and a Pro Street 66. I will not putting the Smarty back on - one fried ECM is enough for me.

What is the best choice without adding a pressure box or downloader? I am starting to lean towards injectors.

Get the adjustable timing on the tst and stack the Bully Dog!

It worked decent on my truck. 659hp with stock sticks...

No, after all the issues with the Smarty, I am done with downloaders. I would like to try a crazy larry, but do not want to risk a new ECM.

I completely understand... My truck runs the best with the bully dog so it will stay on.

Put a BIG set of Flux sticks in it.

MP-8 is the only thing that works good with a TST if your not going downloaders. KS.

After I downloaded the Smarty, It started throwing codes - ECM failure being one of them. It would also go into limp mode which is a pain to deal with.
