OK, I have finally decided to put on a programmer onto my 2005 Dodge Ram 2500 but am now having a new issue. Which one? Smarty was my first choice but, after talking to a few people and reading on each of these programmers, I have confused myself as to which one is the best. Input please.

K, after looking through the threads I have noticed that this has been the big question here lately so, let me rephrase my question. Which one am I going to get the best bang for my buck?

 

EFI isnt avalible for your truck yet, it is only for the 06-07 5.9L right now so that one is out even tho it would be my pick

between the smarty and the h&s personaly i like the smarty on the 5.9 and the h&s on the 6.7

i dont see any transmisson/clutch upgrades in your sig so i'd suggest just a smarty JR

 

Well, if I do get the Smarty, I was pretty sure of getting new clutch in the very near future. You think I will be able to go about 3 months on the stock clutch?

 

you could go forever on the stock clutch....as long as you didnt go over SW3 on a full smarty

 

Since you have an 05 Smarty ie=s really your only choice. Neither of the other 2 are offered for the EOBD trucks yet.

 

as stated above h&s is only available on 06 and up.

 

That kinda narrows it down for ya . Having trashed a a stock clutch already, you should probably start saving for a clutch also. Especially since revo and tnt software is free with a so6 and very tempting.
