pursuade me

ok heres the deal currently im running bullydog pmt with crazy larry (230hp)installed. its an awesome program and the display of gauges is amazing...BUT i want to see dyno proven results or just experiences from you guys where going with the smarty is a better choice. Im highly considering smarty or va c5 come on guys i know you have stories.

I think just taking your truck in for warranty work and having them not able to detect the Smarty was ever on it should be reason enough....

After you have 100,000 miles on that engine, then Bullydog it, or Crazy Larry it.

Just my opinion, results may vary, batteries not included and all that.

Without the proper mods you are not seein near 230 hp.
I know that my 07 with 5500 miles wouldnt hold past sw7 on the smarty..
Now have a double disk sb

Ive ran the tripple dog with crazy larry and the hot juice and now the smarty. IMO the smarty wins hands down....
Creed had posted the results from trying the smarty vs cl at baytown back in Oct... His times were all better with the smarty...

C5 doesnt work on 07s...I love my Smarty; couldnt be happier with it (yes I could, when I get my new trans!! Then I can really put the power down)

^^^ Bodies is right when comparing 2.4.1 to smarty #5 but scary larry only works the way it was designed to on 05 auto's. Plus he has a pmt and not a triple dog so his sol there even if it were a 05.

I ran the BD Triple Dog w/CL stack with my TST and EZ for about a year before the Smarty came out. The Smarty with lower TST/EZ stack settings dyno'd about 50hp more and ran .3-.4 seconds faster ETs. Sold the BDTD quite a while back now.

Smarty ,
There newest software is near perfect.
If the 230 HP /4000 RPM that we are all waiting for is as driveable ,it will be perfect. (IMO)
