Default Stacking Tuners?

I just picked up a 2002 24 valve and its completely stock, 90,000 miles. Looking for a good tuner and possibly stacking them. Hear a lot about smarty and edge, any suggestions?

Since the truck is Stock I would suggest just getting a smarty or edge for now till you put some other mods on it then stack them later since its just a stock truck.

yes do not stack tuners without other mods! gauges, lift pump etc... you will kill that injection pump quicker than you know it.

Lift pump and Guages. You can get one of the tuners with the digital display and have guages and power at the same time.

lift pump, edge juice with attitude you will have programmer gauges and fuel taken care of. don't waste your money stacking smarty and edge unless you enjoying loosing hp and top end. The seat of the pants dyno fools a lot of people. seen it time and time again slower track times and lower hp numbers when they add the smarty to a truck with an edge on it. the money spent on a smarty is better off spent on injectors.
