Never got anything when I ran the Edge Juice. Went to a programmer, and holy moly.

you can stack the smarty with the edge and it's a pretty good stack from what i've heard, just make sure to use an even numbered software, or if you wanna get more Juice out of the J/A you can purchase the hot unlock and that makes a fair amount of smoke on the trucks i've seen that have it

running it on hot unlock can screw up your truck though right?

As in screw up the trans if its not built to handle the power. Ive heard that the Smarty Edge Stack is a useless stack... On 03 and 04 trucks Smarty with a TST with R49 controler will flat out make some power but the same stack on later trucks isnt the best combo. Like I said the early CR's are different animals than the later ones and require some different tuning recipies to get power outa them. But the Smarty on my truck is plenty of power for a street truck (itll break the tires loose in 4th on wet roads) and itll smoke until the turbo lights. But that wasnt the reason I bought it...

Sorry boys, been at the ranch all weekend and away from the net. Let's see...yes its an automatic, and I actually just got it out of the shop on Thursday after getting the tranny rebuilt and beefed up substancially; no slipping, shifts amazing! I dont have any complaints about the S&B CAI, definitely feeds the engine far better than stock, and turbo gets spinning much quicker. Now dont get me wrong, I have the all the power I need, I just want to be able to completely fog an intersection. I can produce a good cloud at low speeds and stomping on it till the downshift, but after that theres none. I just dont understand how my buddy, with almost the same truck and a much smaller programmer, can blow smoke all day long.
