Smile Edge Hot Juice or TST?

Which one of these is better to have. The TST is only 10 more HP I think. I like my edge and when I pickup my truck I will try hot juice for first time. I have been in my buddys and thats a lot of power.

my uncle has a TST on his )# and it is unbelievable. Thats what i learned to drive stick on. The TST box is said to be the harshest box available. He had a hybrid with the box and it would easily destroy his clutch when you get on it. Of course i had to try it last moonth when i went back to visit him. The truck made 50psi of boost at 2000rpms! i was only at 75mph, and letout cuz he had intercooler boot issues and they liked to blow around 50psi....Although he has one leg now and cant drive stick no more if anyone in ohio wants an 03 4door with 35s. he made the truck stock again though.

I'm going with the TST because of the adjustability. With the Edge your just kind of stuck with whatever programming they have in the box. With the TST you can switch between programs, adjust timing, adjust rail pressure, and even set egt limits. Sounds like a winner to me.

I have had both, the Juice/Attitude and HOT Juice/Attitude were very good boxes on my truck. I now have the TST R49. It just has a lot more options and flexibility. And saying it is just 10hp difference is not in anyway reflective of the real differences. Just my experience and .02.

I personally vote for the hot edge. It just plain works awesome,, especially good with stacking with a programmer. Im not a fan of the tst (although I am first to admit that I have not ran one before)

I agree that the HOT Juice is very good, but it has a limit that the TST just does not have. And when it comes to stacking with anything the TST is the most flexible and has the most granular level of control.

That said my HOT Juice/EZ stack was the most trouble free consistent combo I have ran. My best ET out of tha stackk was 13.8s, but it would run 13.8s everytime and I never threw a code of anykind. TST/EZ stack will run 13.2s, add the Smarty and its in the high 12s.
