I would have to agree with the lacking bottom end as far as the conservative part I think banks is a little tooo rough on sh*t my buddy toasted his tranny in his 06 cummins with that six gun pile of sh*t

I think smarty is worse Banks has the no smoke campaign who wants a no smoke diesel. i got a buddy with a 1999 Dodge cummins with banks and he hates it no smoke=no bottom end grunt

Smarty Is Most Definetly the BEST tuner for the Cummins lots of smoke lots of power over all good safety

All right allright, SMARTY it is, I agree, a smoke free diesel is no fun. so who can get me a good deal on the Smarty, and Injector combo (LUKE)

And Tell me more about your injectors luke, Why install them over industrial injectons 60 hp dragon flys. What exactly dose the 60 hp sticks do for you. if a stock injector is good for 600 hp, whats the advantage of installing new larger ones. is it nessessary.

They supply more fuel a little quicker for faster spool up reduces turbo lag basically.. Um I Dont know about Lukes injectors But I Know Industrials are really Really Good thats what Devins running in his cummins and I believe thats what Robert Evans is running is Industrials injectors But Im sure Lukes Got Good Ones too.. The only thing I Recomend on Injectors is Replace Full Injectors

um in some cases ive seen bigger injectors run lower EGTs cuz its not having to Strain as hard to get the fuel threw the injector tips and as far as I know the 60HP Injector label is an Extra 60HP to the engine on the dyno Looks to me like you got all the right fuel suply and intake exhaust exc... to run 60hp no problem in fact you will probobly like the way your engine runs and overall drivability with them injectors in it. but like i sayd before you go any bigger than that your gonna have to start looking into upgrading that CP3 injection pump

The 60hp injectors will make 60hp over a stock set of injectors. 60hp is an average as everyones setup is different. As far as compared to Industrial Injections I can't tell ya because I don't know exactly what they do to there nozzles. You will see an increase in EGT's.
