If you could only have one?(24v guys)

Im just curious. My cousin just bought an EZ for his 02 5 speed CTD, but he may upgrade later, and im just curious... If you could only run one box,a nd no injectors; would you guys who have ran both rather have JUST the Smarty, or JUST a comp box? Also, will you gain much from stacking the EZ on top of the Smarty? Or will the EZ not add any benifit to the smarty? Just curious, and felt like making a post. My cousins EZ hasnt gotten here yet, so we're ready to get that on, and see how it runs with that.

I'd say the SMARTY. I have an Edge Comp and I Love it and all but if I could only have 1, it'd be the SMARTY. My truck has never been so responsive.

I have both and I'd have to say the Smarty. The combo of the 2 is great, but the Smarty is awesome for the "get you rolling quickly" type power. The comp is better for top end power.

I don't own a smarty but from all the good talk about them I'd had to say the Smarty.

I love my comp, but for only one, I would go with the Smarty. I am still amazed at being able to check my truck for codes, not sure what the dealer charges for that, but I doubt it would take very many trips to pay for its self. Luckily, I havent had any codes but I am trying preventive maintenance so the repairs dont sting so bad. The Smarty is very versatile across the board, several completely different functions all in one.

Smarty for improved drivability.
Comp for top end.
If I had to choose..... Smarty!

if you want just all out power increase...comp

but for the versatility, many settings, checking codes, tire size calibration i think, put in the cold weather high idle...its a good buy...plus the low end gains dont hurt either. god i hope someone buys my stuff soon so i have money for the smarty
