I would have to agree that the smarty just feels stronger on the low end than just the Adrenaline alone. But like it was said, seat of the pants feel. Is it really stronger? Don't know for sure but it sure as heck feels like it. And as far as the new ROWJ tunes much better as far as my surging and better low end but load that tune and run it. Then throw a smarty on and tell me you think the Adrenaline is better by itself. I would have to disagree in my case but every truck runs different with so many other factors involved. As far as power top end no doubt the Adrenaline wins hands down

Do you think the new tune fuels harder than the original comp beta tune? My dyno run was done with the comp tune and on my truck the new 4-3-08 tune doesn't feel as strong, but is definately super smooth. The only time i've been able to make my clutch let go is with the comp beta tune.

I am saying that the Adrenaline "RowJ" tunes fuel harder off idle in my truck than previous tunes. The Smarty SW2 does make my turbo spool slower than the Adrenaline alone for some reason. My 62/71/14 has always spooled at 1300-1350rpm with my old Smarty/Drag stack & the Adrenaline alone, but add Smarty to Adrenaline & It doesn't spool till around 1400rpm. It only makes the truck smoke more & makes the throttle pedal "jumpy". This is with the RowJ tune only, production tunes work well with Smarty. I haven't put many miles on the stack, but I'll give it another try tomorrow on SW4. I'm not calling you guys a liar, just saying that my truck reacts this way. Guys who have reported dyno numbers to me have said that adding Smarty didn't raise numbers until you guys have posted.

The original comp tune was hard core, but was running my pump dry & surging. I haven't run it since my tranny blew 3rd gear.

Well I went to the track yesterday and the Quad smarty stack ran a 14.5, whereas the Quad alone ran a 15.0. Thats 5 tenths difference. Quad was on 10 for all runs and when the smarty was on, it was set to #4. I also backed it up with (2) 14.6's with the Quad on 10 and Smarty on #4.
