Smarty, Edge A/J A2, TST R49?

Well I have been reading here for a while and can't make up my mind...
I have a new 06' less than a 1000 miles...
Which is the way to go? I like the Edge and TST have some of the gauges included already. And I like the A2 monitor with the GPS something I have to add anyway for work. BUT the Smarty seems to be the most talked about now and supposedly can go undetected at the dealer and won't screw up my warranty, I think...

So guys vote and let me know what to do with this truck. Oh yeah MPG's are always important does anyone have any real world number with the Smarty and TST it seems the Edge will get ya 3 or so...

I would have to say it depends on what you are looking for into the future. I currently have the juice/a2 It has served me very well for the ast six months and has not thrown a single code. However I now have a full billet trans and install head studs to prepare for pushin 600 hp out of this truck. I have been told guys have done it with the hot juice stacked with a mp8 but it seems to be much more popular to do this with the tst bully dog stack. I have just started to look into more a "race" box (smarty, tst) Notice the more "race" bread boxes dont have the comforts of gps etc........(the gps has saved me alot of time) I am just starting to look into keeping my a2 and hot juice and just hooking up a smarty to it and turning the hot juice off, all this just to keep the convenience of the gages and gps.

Thanks for the input and GREAT looking truck! I think the Edge J/A is the way to go gauges are there no crazy power to be tempted with and the GPS which I need anyway for work. But the Smarty sounds so tempting too.

I have had the edge juice and the A2 monitor for quite a while. I was a beta tester for the A2. While both have worked well, they don't even come close to the Smarty. The Smarty gives great throttle response, and really quick, smooth accellaration. Presently I have the edge turned off and am using the A2 for guages. I have manual guages also above the rear view, so there may be an A2 on the selling block before long.
