t-boe it is just the regular ppe 85/155/215 the hot version i think is 85/155/300 with just the ppe and the e.z. off the truck,on 155 she smokes big time have not tryed the 215.but put the little e.z on and the smoke clears a bunch and a lot snapyer throttle response more fun to drive with both on [stacked] but miss the smoke when the time arrises to fog up an area. do you think maybe im makin 425+ hp if turned up and putting it to the ground? sure fun to drive, bought new now have about 61000 miles on her only problems been having the fuel pump go out now its in the tank i do monitor fuel pressure,egts,and boost forgot to post it in my sig. fuel press. was 14-15 already down to 10-10.5 in 6 months but maintains it pretty good even on a long pull will drop to no more than 6psi.

With everything turned up I'd bet you'll be between 400-450hp...maybe more.

boy from reading on this site looks like SMARTY is what every one likes, is my reg ppe not comparable?? dont know never even heard of it till this site, i dont change from one thing to the next, but i do wished id known more before my purchase i thought i researched pretty well to end up with the ppe it avertised more power than most eveyone even though i now mine i F.W. hp not R.W. hp but still 215/325 should still be like 200/310 if you fiqure 15% for a 6 speed isnt the smarty only 140 or so. and i know i cant adjust tire size and smarty can which issss cool. whats yall think??? thanks ryan

I love my smarty and will never part with it. I know some guys on here are running the PPE and have never had a problem with it. The smarty level 9 is 170hp on 04.5 and up trucks.
