I thought they were waiting to get a picture of me and the truck. I guess they could not wait as I was out of town.
It was today (11/5). It was half the article about the sales people about the Lambo sales guys. You need to get some sweet pics with car and truck, interior and exterior. I would love to see them in person.

And congrats on the increased fuel mpg from the smarty

It is amazing. The Smarty reduces the boost needed by the turbos by almost 50%. If I needed 10 psi to maintain speed on a given stretch, I now only need 5-6psi. If it was 12psi, then I only need 6-7psi. It truly is incredible, and I am sure a main reson for my increased mileage. I am getting such good mileage that my overhead is actually showing 20.6MPG for the entire life of the truck (granted only about 3000 miles but still!, that involves a lot of city driving, cold driving, idleing, and hard 0-90 runs! )

You might be able to get some mileage out of that truck when it's finally broke in.

Well Bob, thank you for YOURS! Would not have been possible without it!

Luken, I have noticed since I reflashed my truck with the Smarty for tire size, my overhead has been within 1MPG and as close as .2MPG to hand calculations.

I take it your running the Smarty alone or with the TST and MP8 set low. Boxes are prone to throwing that overhead off.

Yeah, my MP-8 is hooked up incorrectly and so it does nothing at all, and I have my TST on either 1x0 or 0x0; I can't remember which. It's amazing how much the Smarty does on its own!
