Stock clutch? IMO there is plenty of tunability in a smarty alone. A lot of guys like a pressure box to stack.

Smarty and the Mp-8 is one of the most popular combo's so I'd say go for it.

Excess injection timing can ruin injectors

I have never been a fan of stacking, the Smarty TNT revo should be plenty of power for you, especially with a stock clutch

If you're looking for more tunability go with the Smarty SSR POD, it will be able to tune as much or more than your proposed stack

I would run the Smarty then when your ready for more upgrade your injectors.
