Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Holy Smarty

[Double J]

DoubleJ - the sticks have not arrived yet so I don't have them in. If I make it back to town for the 14th I will do my best to be there. I think you will be safe as I will not have time to put the sticks in even if they have arrived.

That combo will surely test the stock input. Good luck. I'm worried about my output with just the addition of Smarty. So much more power so early in the RPM range makes me kind of nervous building boost at the light... . SNAP

DoubleJ - I too am worried about it. I may run a much lower smarty # for drag racing, either that or turn the comp way down. Either way the output shaft has a short life expectancy... . my only problem now is finding the time to drive 2500 miles to get a new one installed (before I break the curent one). Catch you at the track on the 14th if I am in town, if not I will catch up with you before you leave AK.

Darkhorse, I believe we spoke sometime ago about some other topic. I am over near Sheboygan. I think you are near the Mississippi??

Yes Todd you'll need more air,i'm happy with my B1-2,Phat shafts seem to be the choice now,B-1's were when i bought mine---proven,reliable and work well. Mostly everyone that has the II turbo's seem to like them,there are plenty of choices out there--do your homework and don't make the mistake i did and buy a turbo without really asking alot of questions and stating what your ride will be used for. I bought the wrong turbo the first time and made a bad choice(PRE TDR DAYS)but live and learn i guess. I just got back from the diesel shop that is putting in my new intercooler and silicon hose kit---i felt that even though my Smarty is locked up inside the truck i still decided to go and pick it up from the shop. The owner of the shop says with my mods and how well it is kept and looks it tend to draw alot of people to have a look inside---DON'T WANT MY SMARTY TO GROW LEGS,LETS KEEP HONEST PEOPLE HONEST!!!

Once I have the cash for a better clutch I'll have to get a smarty. I need to get it before my buddy does. Hmmm.
