I had heard that may be happening but I never saw anyone post up that he had made it over here to get it done yet. Hopefully soon!

Another 25% power over the latest TNT is what has been stated. So rather than 230Hp that 287HP. Sounds good to me.

Here was the last tidbit I have heard. Just enough to keep me on the end of a string. I was thinking maybe MADS was developing some way to add power on the fly through a programmable box (like PMT) from another rumor but I like the 25% power increase rumor as well.

WOOSAAHH...... I will not let it get to me. I can wait

Hmm tight lips on the new up and coming stuff I guess.

Can't wait to see what happens. Bob and Marco have been very supportive of their product. Definately class acts when it comes to helping out, and listening to our needs!

Can you really blame them after the TNT/REVO fiasco? I bet Bob got 100+ calls, 350+ e-mails, and 250 PM's a day about it when in Beta testing.

Whatever it is, I KNOW it will be of the highest quality and will once again set the standard in the Cummins community for which others try to achieve. No cheap kangaroo meat here, Smarty is all BEEF!

The TNT-R56 that I'm running is definantly making more power than the 4.4 I was running. I'm guessing 25-30 more hp. I may get it on the rollers early sept.

you guys are too much... it's only been a few months that the Revo tunes have been out. I'll agree, I'd like to see some more power out of the Smarty but, we should be happy we have what we do !

the 2nd gen guys have been waiting a long time for a good tune which I believe Marco has got figured out. That was their plan after the Revo.

After that is/was done, the 6.7 guys are waiting for a tune for their trucks. Once they get something that works for them, I believe that's when Marco will go back to working on the 3rd gen stuff.

Oct would be nice but, I don't think we should complain if it's not.

No doubt about that. It would be nice if Dodge stopped updating the 6.7 software so those guys could finally run the Smarty!! I want to see how it's gonna work with the 6.7's??? I couldn't be anymore happy with my Smarty!!!!!!!! Sure glad I got one of the last 5.9's made.

Oh, I'm definitly NOT complaining. I love the TNT tune. It's at least equal to 4.4 in my truck. I think it has more on top than 4.4 did. I haven't had it on the rollers yet, but I'm thinking it's puting out another 20+ than 4.4 did. I was just trying to confirm the rumor. I'm sure that Marco, & Bob can still improve it somehow.

I dont know if I have a weak 4.4, but the TNT is a lot more powerful on my truck
