Default Smarty Or Edge??

I'm stuck on which to buy right now? an edge because it comes with all the features and you can adjust on the fly, or the smarty, which sounds like the best, dont know which the jr or the sr, but i dont really have money for building a trans or turbo, and i dont have any gauges yet also which the edge has.

Go with the edge its more user friendly for now but it will still slip the trans. if you turn it up. I put one on my 99 and Im very pleased with it.

I had an edge on my 06 and had surging issues so it only stayed on for a week, when i say surging i mean pull out in traffic and it fall on it's face so maybe more of it was cutting out but, when i took it off the truck ran fine and i borrowed a buddys smarty and the truck ran great so im going with the smarty but, thats just me maybe ull have better luck then me??


IMO edge the make for a all the trucks Dodge, Chevy, and Ford. but Smarty is just for the cummins so IMO i think it is a better programmer for the cummins just because all the focus is on the cummins not all of um, but thats just me..

I was in the same quandry... I ended up getting Quadzilla Adrenaline. It seemed to combine the best features of both. I should have it in a couple days and I'll report back on how I like it!
