    I got home today at 2:30PM and by 2:45 I was onroad and blowing smoke with the SMARTY on level 9 :D. Sofar I LOVE it. The install was SUPER simple and the benefits are very noticeable. I will be trying the other levels sometime but I am having to much fun on level 9 for right now. The throttle response is alot better with now and the power just keeps coming on hard from 1400rpm up. I can notice more power from idle up but from 1300-1400rpm up it just PULLS and the harder you hit the pedal the harder it pulls. waytogo

    Don't bother with any other levels. Fuel saver saves NOTHING. Once you've gone to 9 there is NO turning back............take it from one who knows.

    I just did a little testing on 3 & 5 and also some slippery road testing on 9.

    3: I definitly noticed a little more power then my stock setting but nothing spectacular.

    5: I noticed much more power throughout the RPM band then stock but the full power is a higher in the RPM range then the level 9. I also didn't notice anywhere near as much smoke as level 9. This would be a good setting for DD power with less smoke should that be a concern.

    9 Slippery: It is currently rain/snowing here in CO. I drove level 9 around for awhile in these conditions and it is not to bad as long as you stay out of the skinny pedal. When I jambed the throttle the truck would take off well but once it got to about 1800 RPM in 2nd gear it would start spinning the tires. If it is wet and slippery 9 is not to bad if you drive it like a sane person. If it were very icey outside though level 9 could be VERY hard to drive/deal with.

    More will follow as I get more time behind the wheel. waytogo

    P.S. Keep in mind that my truck is ALL stock except for the SMARTY & gauges. I havn't even installed the boost elbow yet.

    With the Smarty you don't need the boost elbow. Fooler is built in the software.

    Wait'll you get some injectors..................:eek:

    The Smarty will boost fool but it won't raise boost much. The boost elbow is what will raise the boost numbers from everything I have read. The Boost elbow mechanically raises the boost and the Smarty fools the computer into thinking it is ok.
