My 03 has top end but nothing on the bottom end. i have a smarty tuner and a afe intake on it and it still has no bottom end power can somone help thats knows or that has had this same problem.

 

Sluggish when takeing off

 

How sluggish? Is this your first diesel? Is it just normal turbo lag?
What tune are you running?
Do you have gauges, whats your boost pressure doing?

 

Iv drove my fathers diesel and when u took off from a stop sign it would spin and it was stoke and it hates pulling trailers thats where i realy notice it and its on level nine on my smarty. And my boost is up around 30

 

Is torque management set at stock? That will delay fueling. I set mine at default.

 

I dont remeber it was like this stock and the programmer only helped on the top end not the bottom end

 

Do you have an automatic tranny? If so, it is the slush boxes crappy TC fluid coupling.

 

I'll second on a possible auto tranny issue. A buddy of mine just went through this with his Ram, the auto tranny was starting in second gear. Bad governor solenoid.

 

Lol, it's hard to respond to a post written like this...

- Perhaps take an English course.
- Perhaps set your Smarty to level 11.

 

My bad i was at work and my smarty only goes to 9

 

My transmission was just rebuilt

 

I do know the Smarty programmer only goes to 9.
I was hoping you would realize that if your truck is near stock, as you mentioned in your 1st post, you should absolutely NOT set your Smarty to level 9.

Stock? What upgrades if any? I would suggest multiple searches and reading.

 

Input output shafts. 1000 horse torgue converter and why shouldnt i put it on level 9

 

03 with smarty on lvl9 and flogging it while towing a trailers??? Holy EGT's batman!!! What is your EGT reading on your gauge? If you not red lining your temps, then you have a fueling problem, of you don't have a fueling problem then you probably already got a couple burnt pistions and are just running on a couple good cylinders...

You do know about the torque management built into the computer right???

Who's converter was installed on your truck? What is the stall speed? If your not completely batcrap crazy (troll posting), I bet you have too little stall built into your converter and can't light the turbo...
