smarty

i know this has been over done but is it really worth the 640.00 for the smarty if you already have a drag comp? what benifits does it give?

IMO, no. If you already have a Drag Comp, then you've already got all the electronic enhancement you can really use.

I love my Smarty, but it's not for everyone, and I don't think you'd benefit from it at all.

I agree with Hohn, I recently sold mine and went back to a DC. I still think they will work well for some folks, it just wasn't doing it for me. I am much happier with the DC, I like the smooth power and adjustability on the fly.

Current thinking is that the HO can't make power from an injector larger than about 180hp.

I'd stick with the 150s, myself, unless I had a good reason to know I was getting a good bit more power without much more smoke.

Not really, imo.

You might be served by trying to find ways to burn the fuel you have more effectively-- like nitrous or twins....
