Stay with Juice/Smarty or go Adrenaline?

Okay I really want an Adrenaline. With my Juice on 6 and Smarty on 8 the truck runs nice. My questions are these. Is stacking Smarty with the Adrenaline showing HP gains? Will the Adrenaline alone build better power than the Juice/Smarty combo. I really like all the info available throught the Attitude Monitor. Not sure what to do. Sounds like if you have an Adrenaline it makes Smarty obsolete or useless. Help!

go with the adrenaline. hands down no comparison and ive only tried the regular tunes. I cant wait to load up the aggressive ones. Sold my juice 3 months ago waiting for this box and it was worth the wait. still got the smarty under the seat of the truck for readin codes. The adrenaline is everything its cracked up to be.

I guess that is my question. I don't want a $600 code reader. If I can come close to the Adrenaline with the Juice/Smarty setup and stacking Smarty on the Adrenaline shows no increase then I'll stay with my current setup. To go to the Adrenaline it sounds like you get a lot less info from the ECM as far as monitoring goes and I'm not sure I like the look of the Adrenaline Controller. If however smoeone can tell me that the adrenaline builds better power than the Juice/Smarty combo and there are some increases when stacking the Smarty on the Adrenaline, then I would like to get an Adrenaline.

Buy a $100 code reader with what you save from the Smarty/Juice stack, get better performance and still have enough left for a good intake...
