Have 120k on mine... Had the TST-49 1st, from about 5k-95k. Added the Smarty around 95k and have liked the combination. Am currently running the Smarty TNT and like how it is working with the combination I have. Either one I think you will not go wrong with.

Do you like how the Quad is working for you?

You need to be careful with any box that adds power. Tranny that feels funny can go the wrong way real quick and cost some $$$ to make it right.

Dodges are not like ford/chebys that have electronic controlled trannys. The transmissions are controlled by the vlave body and the only way to change shift points are chnaging the valve body and/or tq convertor.

If the transmission is shifting funny after full throttle on high setting I would be concerned and have someone you know/trust look at it.

Not a shifting issue like you are explaining. My TQ convertor had always been loose and only got worse with miles.. I had my tranny replaced with Billet DTT at 98k.. 120k on the clock now... I wish I had done the tranny way sooner as it makes that much of a difference but is very $$$ choice so I waited until I had the cash to do it..
