the redline stack is flat out nasty...but if you're going for 700 on fuel only, p-pumping it would probally be the way to go...gus at fbd runs something to the tune of 810hp, diesel only...im pretty sure he is running the monster pump w/ the redline, with a nasty set of twins....

Yeah, the Redline works or doesn't. Just depends on the individual truck.

No. But that's just my opinion. Every box I have ever stacked a Smarty with has lost power. Yes, it has better off idle response, but peak power is definitely down. Not to mention it loses time at the strip. And consider this is figured against a truck running factory torque management vs. the Smarty and no torque management.

Don;t get me wrong, the Smarty works for a bunch of the people that use it. We just could not get the bugs worked out for us. That's just the way things go. I am sure Edge and other companies don't care what I think either.

it's proven almost everytime that the smarty makes you loose a little off the top end...usually people are running it in a daily driver setting, where (im guessing) most of us spend the majority of our time...i personally will run it with a big single around town just to enhance the dd aspect...come track time, it's coming off...

What would you stack the redline with......an ez or could I run my drag comp and not tap the pump so it would basically be an ez? I already have the twins to put on my truck but I am going to fab my own piping so they are not done yet.....and the monster pump is already on the truck....I dont know why my sig isnt showing up?

sig shows up in your first post...did you dyno w/ the smarty? if so, a try doing it without...my guess is you wont have to change boxes to hit 700...what size single were you running?

I never did dyno with the smarty off maybe I should take it off and just run the drag comp and see what it puts down... with the smarty it made 654hp/1287tq i don't need much to get 700 bout 50hp or so! I am running Industrial Injections Silver bullet 66/74/14 at wot i can see bout 64psi and thats pushing the limits of that turbo....however i have an S4T to put under that in twins so maybe that will get me there just by getting it put on. Thanks for all the input guys!

I would like to get a box that would let me hit 4k and maybe squeeze some more out of it and then maybe a 250 shot of nitrous and go for 900hp someday!
