I'm greatly debating buying the Smarty S06 PoD and TST MP8 stack. As mentioned above, I'll be able to control all three functions of the injectors. Which is good enough for now until a full stand alone unit is released to the masses that is reasonably priced...

If you are looking a triple stack with the TST. Be sure to check your build date. I think early 06 is okay but late 06, the TST doesn't work. Maybe some 06 guys can chime in.

I meant TS MP8. I got the manufacturers mixed up. I'm thinking of going the TS MP8 and Smarty route.

Wow looks like i missed out on some good info while at work today, I must fist say I think buying a Jr instead Sr. for me was a mistake at fist I wanted conservative, longevity and reliability at an affordable price, which the Jr does perfect.
My problem is I never new this could be so addictive. After reading this thread I think it would be in my best interest to spend my hard earned money on a Sr. first before I spend even more trying to accomplish the same thing and failing,If the Sr. isn't enough and I still have a Job i will invest in the mp-8.
Thanks once again for all the input guys.

I guess if you have the JR like I do and later want to upgrade to the SR, the MP-8 will still have that added pressure and controlablity and by then hopefully have a lift pump and better injectors installed as well. The MP-8 seems to be the best stackable pressure box for any Smarty.

First off, you won't need the MP-8 for awhile, the little turbo would be screaming for mercy and your tranny too. If you want more power than the Jr, heres the recipe you will need

GAUGES
larger turbo
T/C valvebody at least
Smarty sr or Diablosport Predator

I'm on my stock stix and with my mods they have been holding up fine. Address the most important stuff before getting the little extras.

So you're saying if someone has an auto they should go to a bigger turbo before adding a programmer?
Why would that be different than someone with a stick?

No I meant that in no particular order, but all of those I listed IMO are more important than the MP-8 at this time. Also consider he has a 305/555 motor with the puny he341 turbo, IMO it would be just as important to change as upgrading the tranny would be. With my truck the stock turbo got hot very quickly to over 1400* while the clutch still held everything. To each their own but if it were my truck with an auto I would get the most important stuff out of the way so I didn't blow nothing up. But that's just me.

With the stuff you have so far, an HE351 would be just fine.
