Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Smarty / Juice stack - question

[NavyDoc]

Does anybody have personal experience with this stack?



The bottom line on it as I understand from online reading is that the Smarty bumps the low end and the Juice (which I have on my truck) is more top end.

The theory of the stack is to bridge the gap between them and the combo gives the best of everything.



I know from running the Juice on level 5 all the time, my top end is very good with an ATS 3000 turbo. Bottom end is not as strong as top, but still much much better than stock.

Some of the lack of low grunt is certainly due to the transmission not grabbing and locking the TC, but seems more than just that to me. ?Smarty to the rescue?

I have ATS ex manifold and intake and 4" single mbrp. No injectors yet.



Any input welcome.

Hey Doc!!

I would be more worried about your possible stock? Trans holding up.

I started with some light adders in the begining and it didnt take to long before the trans crapped the clutches.

I am researching transmission options right now as that will be the next thing to be upgraded - the smarty stack may happen at the same time (if it pans out that what I think I understand is mostly true). Trying to understand all this stuff is complicated, but very interesting - and sure is fun smokin mustangs:-laf
