With your mods the Smarty TNT Non R or the TNT/R. Either way, it will rock that truck. I run the TNT and love it. Hit 649hp with it. SW9, TQ3, TM3, RP3. Because its an 03 255 cali truck, with the addittion of the smarty TNT, it gets the HO SW and basically evens the playing field. Just go download the TNT off of MADS and run it. It will rock your truck and having you saying........ITS ALIVE

If it were me I would be getting the beta 4.2, but that's just me. I'm still supporting the betas on the 03-04 trucks....

Older tunes no longer available except from Bob. 4.2,4.3,4.4, these are refered to as the beta tunes.The 4.2 is the most agrressive and then the 4.3 and then 4.4.I can't speek as to how these tunes work on the 03-04 motors.Maybe Rip will chime in with some detail,I know he has run all of them.On my truck the 4.2 is very comparible to the TNT/R.I personally don't think it is as strong but very close.Some guys have had issues with the TNT tunes on the 03-04 motors.I guess there is a glitch that needs to be worked out and I know Bob and Marco have been looking into it.You should just download the TNT and give it a shot.No need to send the Smarty in unless you are wanting to upgrade to the PoD.All the old tunes can be requested from Bob.It may take a while but he will get to you.

Stay with the TNT. I have the betas from Bob and so want to try the 4.2. However I am having some really good luck with the TNT. Eventually i will try 4.2, from what i here it really works super on the 03 trucks.

How long does it really take for Mr. Bob to get to a person?? How does it work, does he send it via email or ..........?? I'm just asking, curious...but the waiting game doesn't go well with me, I not a patient person unless the retailer/person tells me a time frame I can expect the product/info.

Sorry for hy-jacking......................

Tried that a week ago..........2 wks ago, he told me via email that he'd ADD me to the TNT-R list and to be patient. That was all he stated. That's why I'm asking how long to expect to wait for him to get back to a person. Am I just being a pain to his rear or asking too much for a time frame??
