Questions for BOB

I am interested in purchasing a Smarty POD and have some questions. I have a 04' with small modifications such as 5 inch exhaust. Other mods are in the future when the money shows up. What would be a good program on the smarty for my application. i want good economy and the most power without gernading my transmission. What would you suggest and what is the price. Also what would be a good settings for lots of smoke for the priuses that have their windows down. I know I know its just wasting fuel but it would be fun from time to time. Any suggestions would help. And if anyone has any other suggestions i would appreciate them.
Thanks Again

Since you say you will do future modifications, you could get by with the Smarty s06 but run it on level 3. If you turn it up you will PAY. Wait for the mods and then tune the Smarty accordingly. You will need a lot of mods to support that unit fully turned up. Use your head,... not your foot.

Agree....

If you want big power later, get the S06 now, and use it with some good sense. If you turn it up, you'll destroy your tranny, and possibly more. Program wise, I like the revo.

If you are not planning to go big, get the Jr.

They hit it on the nail

Don't expect too much smoke till you get some real mods put on, the current smarty programs are minimal smoke on otherwise stock trucks.

Agree also, level three if you want to drive it like you want to.. level five if you have self control.. level five or seven and moderate torque management if your in a hurry to have your transmission rebuilt.

Somewhat off topic, but does any one know the address to send a Smarty S06 to to have it upgraded to a S06POD? I know you send it to BOB at Wagner Associates, but I don't see an address on the site.

Wanna bet mine will lay a cloud of death real easy. It scare the heck of people. Wish I got more out of the fuel dump when that happens. I need to harness that fuel.

So you're saying your truck will smoke at will whenever you want it to like mine? I don't think yours will smoke as much as mine man, sorry. Besides, he has an early 04 which these trucks are a bit harder to get to smoke. I didn't say it wouldn't smoke at all I just said not to expect too much.

Rip I bet yours smokes. I got a friend with an 03 and it will ploom very well. Smarty's make great power just a tad to much cloud at times. Just being honest you know.
The day we can have our cake and eat it to will be good. Same power with just a haze or dusting I feel is in the future.

Thats what some ppl want, and then some ppl really want it to roll! I can manage my truck w/o smoke just by slowly rolling into it and get up to speed pretty quick, but if I got to make a fast maneuver or evasive action (aka show off) it will definitely take out about a mile of highway if I let it. I don't have to have the smoke, however I do have to have the massive spoolup capability of the bet programs so smoke is certainly part of the equation.
