Uh its like night and day. Mine actually felt a little slower off the line because I have a really tight converter and it spools up the turbo a tad slower if you just punch it off the line. It quickly catches up though.

Actually with the new smarty tune though its doesn't do that much anymore. It just goes. Sideways that is..

The important part is your stocker went out in a blaze of glory, killing a ricer.

Expect a big difference and expect to hold a little more pressure on the brake. Its nice to be able to feel the gears.

I have exactly the same experience to report with my Goerends as above^^^

You know, it is just the most awesome feeling right now, cranking a particular old AC/DC song while giving the Smarty TNT/R a spin!!!

There isn't much more to say about the Smarty...it rocks! I don't even have one of the beta programs, just the 4.11 off the website, and I am absolutely blown away at the power it makes. Now that you've got a tranny to hold the power, pick up a Smarty and download one of the wild torque management files and let'r rip!

I can't wait to see what the new TNT/r tune is all about!
