Smarty Beta V4.2 Dyno'ed
#61
Stock clutch will Die a smokey death on level 9 with this programming.
For that matter anything above level 5 you will either do one of two things.
1 Slip the Tires
2 Slip the Clutch

This beta software.... is even more fun than the current wild programming.
It's like a guilty pleasure, without the guilt!

Note to self: Never buy one of Marco's trucks if he lists it in the classifieds!

Just an update, I am at work right now, but mileage gains look too be pretty consistent, meaning the last tank was not a fluke!! Just going on the fuel guage, it looks like I am actually getting better mileage than the last tank!!!
I get home monday morning, and will fill up, hopefully have the number by then, And if I can make time somehow, try and get back on the dyno in the next couple weeks. If weather permits (of course it didnt last time), i should be able too get on the track on the 25th of may, I am also hoping too have nitrous in by then, but then again I need time, and work doesnt allow that right now in the sands of alberta!!!

ummmmmm, ok.......... why are we talking about milage on a hot......whoops I'm sorry,....I meant HOT software???????????????? How about what really matters, drivability, turbo lag, smoke, compare to other smarty files, power, etc........

Having said that, 21 US MPG is no joke on a truck that is otherwise 100% stock! Smoke is a little lighter in colour, Throttle is now more linear in feel, What is turbo lag? (J/K turbo lag shouldn't be a concern, in fact this *** comes on the pipe really fast)
Comparing it to other SMARTY files is easy. I have switched back and forth from Wild TQ MGMT and back to beta and back again.
I am keeping the BETA loaded, and all the other SMARTY files are saved to my USBFLASHDISK for ease of access in switching and access using any computer while on the road.
This is good stuff. I can't imagine improving the BETA any more than it is, but if there is some way to improve it Marco will find a way!

lag? did i mention i hit 20psi @1200 rpm right before the clutch let loose?
milage? filled up tonight hand calc 26+ change mpg all empty milage.
drivability? awesome its like old smokey but better, and almost no smoke.( unless i want it)
egt? down compared to wild #9 on previous software
like i posted earlyer, id does feel a little like a 2 stroke, there is a sudden surge around 1600, my best guess like others is this is where the timing starts to change alot.
i have not towed with it, i know my clutch is defenetly not up to the task any more.

Lag = NONE. I can hit 10 psi @ 1000 RPM, 51 psi @ 1600 rpm.
Smoke = LOTS...if you want it. Less than previous wild smarty, but @ 900 rpm in 6th gear and 1/2 throttle = BLACKOUT!
POWER = LOTS, compared to wild smarty is about 60-70hp on the dyno, hopefully get on the dyno here soone too compare the 2 when using modded cp3 and injectors.
And yes, a 7600 pound truck with 600+ RWHP, getting 22+ USmpg!!!

Hey Marco,
is there anything in the works for adding other features to be controlled by Smarty. Like high idle, accessories on after key off, turn off seat belt ding, you know those kinds of things??
As soon as I have the funds, I'm sold on the Smarty, I was just looking at other programmers/downloader's and they do have some cool extra features.
thanks
