Your not getting me...the 0-100% is just a boost limiting....fuel pressure limiting way to limit power...not an adjustible tune. It is impossible.

You choose a program...download it...and that is what you have. The 0-100% just pulls some smoke and mirrors to derate that tune. It is NOT adjustible.

What are you talking about 0-100%. There are 4 settings Stock, Tow, Performance and Extreme.

I know i can adjust my PMT from stock to extreme on the fly! And the BDTD stacks well with the MP-8 just call TS performance and see. You cant bash on BULLYDOG they have good downloaders. for as boost fooling mine puts out some high numbers never set any codes.

I am running the BDTD with the outlook monitor and I can change the setting "On the fly", even if I am on the skinny pedal at the time. I don't know what you want to call it but when I switch it to "Extreme" from "Perormance" it definately makes a difference. I like it because you don't have to have the downloader connected and the Outlook monitor allows you to toggle the setting at will.

It doesnt matter if they cut the power or not. It works and its better than stopping and downloading a new program IMO...

For an 05 auto the scary larry is sweet... Small gains may be had on 04.5 and 06 possibly but a HUGE gain on 05s when compared to the crazy larry.

Ive rode in a truck with the new beta smarty and it impressed me more than the original program that I tried. Still not a scary larry on a 05 but getting closer...

So let's say I pull up to a traffic light and my BDTD is in tow/econ mode, and a Duramax pulls up next to me. We both punch it and he smokes me to the next light.

At the next light I plug in my BDTD under the dash and press Crazy Larry. Light turns green, I roast my tires and my clutch and the intersection is filled with smoke. The Duramax is obliterated!

Now, how is that not on-the-fly adjustability?

Not flaming you, but this actually happened..............many times!

I agree on the adjust on the fly options does work good. I have had 3 triple dogs and like ramble said no codes came up on any of my trucks. I just think the smarty is designed for 1 truck. the triple dog is just for one fits all but crazy larry does run good. my egts seem to be less and the throttle is not as sensitive on high settings with the smarty. I just think it is a better tune for my truck. scary larry is the one for an 05, but I dont have an 05 anymore.
crazy larry would not work with the quad boost fooler. I have heard of 3 cases now of cracked injectors running scary larry. no thanks
