TNT-R for 550hp on 03-04

For the past 6 year's the only proven way to get 525-550rwhp on a 03-04 w/ stock injectors and CP3 has been.

66mm Turbo
TST
Pressure Box
Smarty/BDDL/Diablo/Edge
Pusher Pump
Intake/Exhaust


Well I'd like to avoid spending $800 on a TST to reach 550rwhp. I know Morkable made good power w/ diablo/JA small sticks but I'd rather stick with my Smarty/MP8.

I also know the the TNT has made alot more then 550hp but that was on trucks with alot more mods like dual CP3's, injectors,twin's, ect.

So do you think the new TNT-R Smarty tune will make 525-550rwhp on a 03-04 w/ silverbullet, smarty, MP8, fass.

I know 03-04 can see big gains w/ injectors but that's a way's away since I like to go big and going big in fuel delevery cost big $$$

I know its possible with the 6 year old TST and various combos of other box's/ but I think its time to have an all in one unit that can deliver the same hp without having to triple stack and try to figure out the best settings.

Have you dynoed?? I would think your close to 500hp already. I would also think that a stock trans (if thats what you have) is already ****** at you.

Nahhhh.... his trans is happy, its a 6 speed.

I wonder the same thing. Is the TNT going to max out your injectors so you dont need a TST? I guess time will tell but my gut tells me you better save your money and not buy a TST. I think if there would be any gain over the TNT, it would be minor. This is just my guess and really means nothing to anybody.

550+ w/o a TST would be a nice thing. I loved the TST in my '03, but the multiple programs, timing adjustments, etc. in addition to pressure and Smarty programs really made it difficult to find a perfect tune. I could spend an hour or more on a dyno and not find the magic combo again that made me hit 555/960 uncorrected. Stock CP3 and sticks.

I guess I should have had a notebook and written down the combination.

Perhaps with the TNT-R and some pressure the elusive combo will be easier to find?

I miss my '03. A Lot... Never should have sold it.

I just got my 03 and I am trying to figure out what to buy I like my edge juice with att on my 01 and I was thing about going with the A2 on my new 03(I need gps) and I like the digital gauges. But I want to make big power to get the truck into the mid 12's I think I will need upwards of 700hp and I dont know what combo to go with. and I want to avoid buying multipal set ups and wasting thousands of dollars
