Question which one

Ok so i know there are always tons of threads about this and it is always the smarty that gets picked for the best programer but i can use that one.

When i did my manual swap the truck got reprogramed and they put a non stock dodge tune on it so now i cant use my smarty anymore. So i have to get a programer that hooks up to the motor. which would be the TST or Edge. or at least that is what i have found that i like so far.

Wondering which one you guys think is better?

Or if there is another one out there that is better then those two?

I have an Edge in mine and had zero problems with it. Called them up for the hot unlock, seemed like cool guys.

sorry i already got rid of the smarty. i know that with the smarty it was really amazing power down low. I had a friend that had the edge and didnt have the low end like me. do you notice a big diffrence with the hot unlockon the low end?

The hot unlock makes good power but I only ran it once with it cuz when I went for 5th the clutch was on the floor and it was draining the rail at higher rpm. so my DD is goin in soon and I have to shop for a bigger CP3 to fuel it

I was back and forth between the Edge and the Quadzilla Adrenaline. I ended up with the Quadzilla and couldn't be happier. Awesome guys and an awesome product. When I get it dialed in completely, I want to go head to head with my uncles '05 with the Edge but I really think I made the better choice by far!

The TST is one of the nastiest inline tuners you can get... it will out do the edge

So you have like an aftermarket ECM or what? I dont quite understand....

i did the 6 speed swap on my truck and it stuck it in limp mode so i took it to a shop so they could reprogram it and they did but since it not a stock dodge tune the smarty couldnt read it. thats why i need one the actually hooks up under the hood
