Wanting to get a tuner...

Im looking to get a tuner and i was wondering which one to get if i do not have any upgrades on my truck other than cold air and 4" exhaust. i just want something to give me a little bit more power but not sumthen that i'm going to have to put a bunch of mods in just to run it. Also one that put out smoke with it too. I've been looking into the edge ez if anybody has any input let me know.
thanks

I haven't seen too many complaints about the tst and will most likely be going with their product when I get some spare cash.

Right now, I've got a $500 paper weight

yes they have a fuel milage tune and you can also with the revo softwear adjust the timing yourself so you can put it on say level 3 which they say is fuel boost and timing and advance the timeing to 4 which is there fuel milage setting

Quadzilla XZT+ a little more powerfull then an EZ in my opinion (i have used both) and you can download different tunes from the web site, including ones with a high idle.

just my 02

I had the EZ for a little over a year before up grading, I liked it alot. Wouldnt smoke too much unless you kinda tried to. My brother had the smarty jr and didnt like how much it smoked. Its not as advanced as the 10 level smarty sonior so the senior might be a good choice. Get a fuel press gauge before anything. Just so you dont burn up your LP and IP pushin extra power/fuel.

Smarty all the way. Bob is excellent to deal with. Boost fool, tire or gear change-you can adjust speedo, high 3 cylinder idle when it gets really cold, a whole lot of adjustability, and freakin awesome for towing and you won't believe how much difference it makes on the way the truck drives, feels like a lot more power than it says with the settings set right.
