Here a Smarty is hard to beat. Take a look at the web site. Mads Electronics - Smarty - CaTCHER - Dodge Tuning - Home Everything you need to know and were afraid to ask is on this site. I have one on the truck in my sig.

i got a juice, and i liked it just fine, but now i ripped it out to get it reflashed for the attitude i should get it back in a couple of weeks and i can let you know what the gauges are like. with just a juice, i noticed an incresse in power with towing, and a little smoke with the power, but nothing that would annoy anyone. i did notice a difference since i ripped it out and back to almost stock, i do miss it. if your not going for any future crazy powerhouse stuff, then i think you would be happy with a juice and attitude. i here the new quad's are pretty cool to also....

With anything you choose make sure you keep it on the lower settings or youll fry your clutches. I know from experience, had an 05 auto lost second with only 80,000 miles on the truck, ran bullydog for a few thousand and then switched to the edge j/w attitude. My heavy foot didnt help. I liked the bullydog better but I didnt have the outlook monitor. A good converter and valvebody would help ya out alot.
