Default need programmer info please

ok im looking for a programmer for my 2001 dodge 6 speed.

i have an airdog 150, fuel pressure/boost/EGT gauges, and a BHAF.

im wanting to have a programmer that will give me some decent safe power, good fuel mileage, and relatively cheap...

im trying to decide between Edge Comp, Smarty S03, and Quadzilla ADR... really dont know what to choose. ive heard mixed reviews about all of them..

previous owner had a Smarty on the truck before i bought it, and said he really liked it.



i would just like to hear everyones opinions about them, and if you have one of these could you let me know what kind of mileage increases that your seeing.

thanks guys

Edge comp since you already have gauges.

Is edge comp a pretty reliable comp with good mileage gains and powerful?

Luke, will those injectors help my mileage any, and whats the cost for 6?

I was told to get 75 horse injectors, is that the same thing?

Yes comps are very reliable and can net some good mileage as well.

Yes they should help you net more mileage

No RV275's will gain up to 30 HP over stock with a HO pump and with an SO pump up to 40 HP over stock.

Yup 275s are rated at 40hp, but would increase mileage, although I prefer smarty over edge

Smartys are nice but they don't give you much on a VP powered truck, no pump tapping. Plus they are not "On The Fly" either.

I would like on the fly. But if the power and mileage offsets the price of the smarty which is like $150 more, then i might consider it. Although smarty doesnt tap pump so isnt that just a straight 65hp?

Explain why you peefer it please, i need all the info i can get before i buy one.

How muh are those injectors?

In my opinion smartys dodge tuning is superior to edge, as far as increase in hp smarty is tuning and is adjustable because it programs through the OBDII, the edge is a box that plugs into the harness to add tuning. That's why they can be stacked. The smarty is now adjust on the fly with the edge insight as well
