There is a noticable difference between hot and standard juice. I really liked the defuel set at 3200 instead of 2700, but I do have a manual not an auto. It does feel a little stronger on the bottom end. It's only 100 bucks so I'd say it was worth it for me. On a dyno, i'd bet that the hot upgrade would have probably 5-10% more area under the curve so you would go faster in a drag race with it. You already have a smarty, don't know if I'd do the upgrade then. Maybe you'd like the Juice on 6 better than smarty and juice on five and then sell the smarty and buy some injectors.

If you do not plan on a turbo upgrade, I would get the jammer 3's instead of the 5's. Now i'm hurtin for a turbo and wife wont let me do it. Wish I would have got some 3's.

A smarty might not add any power to a hot juice, but it would make the truck more fun to drive.
