Smarty or NOS?

Like the title says... OL says I can have one or the other... If you don't know the story...

https://www.dieseltruckresource.com/...d.php?t=217831

https://www.dieseltruckresource.com/...d.php?t=217825


Please add your thoughts as to what you voted and why...

I already have: The obvious about the smarty's adjustibility, but I'm told it will take my EGT's down a lot.

Spray: Could make my turbo go kaboom with the way things are now... I was looking at the gas as an effort to cool her down.

Thanks!

I voted Smarty. You can always try to talk the OL into spray later on.
You will be amazed at the egt difference from Juice to Smarty.

Are you interested in water as a means to cool the EGT's, Cheaper then NO2 in the long run and very adjustable, sorry for being off topic but it could bias the poll some if you added H2O to poll.

If I had to pick from the two listed I would say Smarty.

I voted Smarty. I don't have near the performance mods that you have on your truck but I have ran both the Smarty Sr and the Juice/Attitude on my '06 back-to-back and the Smarty runs a heck of a lot cooler.

smarty, just because NOS seems like "fake" power to me and it can do bad things to parts.

Can you borrow a Smarty from someone local? You should see a reduction in EGT's but there are a lot of shoulds and coulds floating around. The Smarty will add timing the correct way. The Hot Edge is a nasty critter for sure, lots of power. I know Omaha just went down this road with high EGT's and the Smarty helped his situation.

Spray is awesome but temporary.

go gas and dont look back there are going to be some major changes in the way we tune our trucks that are going to blow anyone away the hardest thing is going to be getting dyno time to play with all the options and "creating your own tunes" for varous things such as track, trips, pulls and so on

I think you know my opinion Mad, the Smarty will work better with spray later. For now take advantage of all the tuning capabilities the Smarty will bring to you and find your sweetspot.

Another vote for Smarty!!! Low EGT's and awesome adjustability. I have a friend with the Hot Juice...put in TNT and he is buying a SMARTY as soon as the funds come up!!!

Plus with the tuning in the TNT, you can pull timing out for running giggle gas!!!

I said Smarty...but what do I know? I'm just a greeter tryin' to make people feel good about themselves

Get the Smarty, then tell the OL you need the nos to make the truck run right...you are gonna just keep breakin' stuff anyway with the way you drive...never should have sold the edge...I'm wrong, your right...just need some nos and that's it...then just a couple of more turbo upgrades...then I'm done...honey, I swear that's it...

Hope your buyin' her something nice
