Dyno'd SMARTY

Does anyone know where I can find some dyno output from The Smarty. I've herd that it puts about 60 hp on the ground, but I'm curious as to where in the powerband it is. I would prefer it down low since my truck is a workhorse daily and a hotrod only on special occasions. Thanks.

Thanks for the info. Does anyone know how The Smarty will compare with a Van Aaken box, as far as how much and where the extra power is. Also does the VA provide timing or fuel or both, I can't really find a straight answer.

FBA, there must be a smarty darn close to where you live. best bet is to try it out and decide for your self.

Its a great tool that yuou can feel on YOUR truck.

I am very confident

You would not regret getting a Smarty. HUGE improvement over stock, you can definetely feel it in the seat of your pants. Plus you get to read codes, change speedo/odomometer, a fuel saver mode, and its easy to use. It is night and day pulling trailer on sw9 vs stock, and a blast to drive unloaded on almost any setting. My advice is to order it ASAP!

I didn't dyno, but I've owned the VA and the Smarty and they're not in the same league.

Smarty-- get it and love it.

sorry to hijack the thread but here is a smarty question...

i already have 150hp sticks and a 120hp comp + big single turbo. if i dyno in the 460-480 range on my current set-up(thats what im thinking it will make), then add a smarty, how much of the claimed 60hp will i see on top of the current set-up.

i know its gonna give me alot quicker spool-up, and greater throttle response, but im wondering if its gonna be enough to put in the elite group of 500hp/1000tq trucks

Talking

you should easily get to 500,the smarty will act like a drag comp for you and fuel you all the way to 3500rpms,and give you more fuel down low,do you have a secondary fuel pump?with the setup your talking about you may run out of fuel if you dont.try one out on #8 and you will be happy,with my truck with just the injectors and comp and pusherpump i can get the fuel presure to go to 10 psi,with tthe smarty on #8 and comp on full, i see 7 psi wot,so the smarty takes lots of fuel too,with your sticks and comp and smarty you will need lots of fuel.

working on it...gotta sell my other stuff first so i have the cash for a smarty

i have tried a smarty on #8 already and i was sad whent he guy had to take it back out after letting me try it. it was an animal. comp on 3x3 from a 40mph roll in 4th gear on dry pavement it started spinning the tires and the axle was hopping so i let out. thats a BAAAAADDDDD combo if it makes an 7600lbs truck break traction from a roll on dry pavement

We'll find out how well it works (again)...mine is on it's way.

If you want to try it out sometime, let me know and I'll give you a heads up when I get close to College Station.

It's a good thing you already have a Catcher, otherwise I might suspect that it would get loaded in your truck and get "stuck"
