The Smarty Jr. (by MADS Electronics)
Here's is my suggestion for your 3rd Gen Cummins. I have a 2006, and since I added the Smarty Jr., I could not be happier. It's just a 100 HP bump that is enough to put my truck at 450 RWHP with the other mods I put on the truck with stock injectors. See what you think.
Smarty (by MADS Electronics)
The Smarty (by MADS Electronics) is only made exclusively for the Cummins, and it does not require any re-wiring, nor does the Smarty delete or change any stock settings (programs) for your ECM (Engine Control Module), and with the push of one button you can re-set the Cummins to all original stock programs. Please note: The Smarty is not a chip, and takes 3-5 minutes to upload. The Smarty is does not stay on the truck as other chips.

The Rest of the Story for Cummins & Truck Mods
1. Open up the air intake.
2. Remove the "silencer ring" in the turbo.
3. Open up exhaust (Straight pipe the exhaust).
4. Use a MADS Smarty Down Loader.
5. Keep injectors cleaned out. Use Lucas Fuel Additive "Injector Cleaner - Upper Cylinder Engine Lubricant" with every fill up at 2.0 oz/10 gallons of diesel.
When my 2006 was new, the RWHP was rated at 325 HP. After doing the above, the truck is now running at 445 RWHP consistently. Cleaning up my injectors and using Lucas helped quite a bit after installing the Smarty Jr. and setting to stock "torque management setting" and using the "performance setting" (#3). Basically, real simple stuff. I am aware of EFI Live, but I was put onto Smarty by a Cummins shop with no complaints.
FYI -- My other Dodge Cummins ('99.5, and '02), I changed to the Smarty Tuner for the 2nd Gen Cummins and rebuild the trans for more torque (850 ft-lbs) to handle the 190 HP bump. Both trucks are running solid at 411 RWHP with 805 ft-lbs of torque. My 2nd Gens are not the fastest trucks, but they are better than stock which is all I wanted. My 2001 is bone stock for now. Maintaining five Dodge Cummins trucks is about all I can handle.
Hope this helps.
