Looking for some reviews of this quad product. I like the idea that I can use it for some extra horsepower for towing the 5ver and also add the milage max program for daily driving. How easy is the install? What kind of real mpg. gains might I see? Been searching a lot of the forums and I didn't see a lot of reviews for this product. Thanks for the help in advance.

The EGT's is what will get you w/ the Quad. Also, towing my 5er w/my X2 RACE on level 4 I could slip the TC real easy. Go w/a Smarty Sr. or if 100 HP is all you'll ever want( which I doubt!) get the Smarty Jr. I don't know how the Smarty will treat the TC yet, but I KNOW EGT's won't be a problem anymore.

I doubt that I will ever use more than the 65hp setting. I can understand that you were slipoping the TC in the 100 setting. I looked at the Smarty and read quite a few posts about it and it seems that the Quad might be better for towing and fuel economy. I am not looking at spinning the tires or racing. Anyone else have any reviews or comments?

Level 4 is 65 HP. Stock(1), 25(2), 45(3), 65(4), 100(5), 140(6)HP. I saw -0- mileage increase w/or w/out the mileage tunes. Smarty jr. users have seen decent mileage increases. If you don't have a bigger turbo, EGT's WILL become an issue. HTH
