Does Smarty increase pressure?

Thinking of making more power reliably, and thinking of trying the smarty jr. Does anyone know for sure if it makes it's power without increasing pressure? Also, who's running DDP 50's with the smarty, and how do you like it?
Thanks

I belive the defalt Smarty software doesn"t add pressure but with the Revo software you can add pressure. Hope that makes sence.

I wonder if bob or marco is thinking about making a Smarty jr TNT-jr.

It would be nice to be able to use the smarty jr. instead of stacking the powerpuck or other rail enhancers. We dont need crazy pressure it would be nice just to bump it up a little with the extra tuning that REVO provides.

Maybe sign a waiver due to the addedd pressure, but i'm sure that i'm not the only one. I'm not looking for a ton of extra power on top of the Smarty Jr. i just like the added low end presssure add's to the mix. I know the smarty jr's not meant to be a bad boy like Smarty Sr. but it would be nice.

It doesn't add much pressure, it just raises it faster.

how about just get the sr. and keep it on the low setting's, and have all the adjustability you want.with the rail pressre,t/q management,timing ect.just a thought.

-Two examples of why I don't post very often, what do either of these responses have to do with my questions? Please don't bootleg posts, unless you want to help out with answers that have something to do with the question, thanks

The Smarty Jr is fuel and timing only. No pressure added

I have Smarty and DDP 50's. Runs really well just a little smokey when it's hot or high elevations.Turbo really cleaned things up over stocker.

I don't run any added pressure on mine. Just stock.

Your truck being the earlier version may have different results though.

Neither the JR or SR Smarty increase pressure. The SR allows you to adjust the ramp angle of the RP, thats all.

If you want a little more you might want to try a MP-8 or a Edge EZ, both are pressure boxes that are adjustable. They both work well with either Smarty. Added pressure will also help with smokey injectors, better atomozation of fuel leads to lower smoke.

More smoke is possible if you like that, but MPG I stayed the same. Nothing has help with MPG on my truck, but at least it never went down w/ additional HP.
