well it does good man. Least to me it seems that with the smarty it has better low end grunt. I run the smarty on 60 horse most of the time. I would atleast get an EGT guage while towing to monitor temps. oost and trans temp are not a bad choice either. Im sure a vendor can maybe even put together a nice package deal for you.

Forget banks, I delt with them in the past and there customer service sucked bad. I had a exhaust brake of theres and I needed a simple part. I was so pissed at them I took it off the truck and put in a pac brake.

Smarty is a good tuner great low end power. But if your not carefull it will burn up your transmission. And you need gauges if you don't already have them.

I also like TST. TST doesn't have the low end power that the smarty has. You will feel the power kick in around 1600, which may be easier on your auto.
TST has great customer service. I had a TST on my 04 dodge and when I traded for a 06 I sent my box in and they updated it for me and I needed a different wire harness because the 04 o6 were different. I think he charged me 50 bucks in all. Thats service thats hard to beat. To bad they never made anything for the 6.7 diesel.

In a perfect world you run the smarty and TST together. I did on my 06, and it was a wild ride

I was also wondering what the deal with the smarty is that says, it has the 9 power settings, but then the power on the demand says it has 100 different power levels on the fly. What does that mean?

I had a 05 till the lease run out and I did alot of towing put a pacbrake exaust brake on to help with the stopping and run a edgejuice/att and it was nice because all the safty stuff it lets you know when you get close to f...ing something up and it has the shift on the fly you want too
