At first it's his truck, then it's not
No real facts on a specific problem
I would guess he hasn't taken Bob up on the guarantee
If he is for real, everyone has stepped up to help him "wake up his turd"

#ad


My guess is it's a fourteen year old who dreams of a PSD and is having a little fun,
either that or when your born dumb, it lasts a long time...

OK - Someone reported the thread, so we have to get on track here.



AWard - It is a bit confusing to follow your issues, if you first say that it is your truck

Then it's a friend's truck and you sprinkle information in kind of like powdered sugar over a doghnut.



Most everyone here is willing to and interested in helping. It's hard to shoot in the dark.



The comment when the post was reported is tht this thread is here just ot get a rise out of people. When you make a post like But whatever... yall keep bickering, i really find it all funny, I have to agree with them.



Calling the smarty a dumby is kind of like calling a dealer a *******. It's just not in good taste. If you have an issue with the product that you bought - Take it up whth whomever you bought it from. If you want help with a problem that you are having - Please give all the information possible.



It'[s difficult to get help from soneone who you have just told that you find them amusing.



To all - If you feel that you have sufficient informaton to help, then please do, or request more. Please Please cut out the back and forth banter.



There is good technical content here, so I don't want to pull the thread.



I will watch it from here and see where it goes.



Thank Y'all

My brother has a stock truck 100% & he didn't want to give Smarty back after installing it. The trucks power is smooth all the way through the powerband..... no jerking when the turbo comes in, but smooth power right off idle. This is what the smarty does in a nutshell on a stock truck. You can tell that the powerband with smarty is widened... . especially when it is installed on a modified truck meaning injectors, box etc. I'd say that the tuner is fine, but as stated by Bob Wagner..... it is a product that can be sent back if you are not satisfied. Contact him & you will get answers. The way that the problem was presented here is rough & talking about Smarty on this sight is like talking about our kids. I Love my Smarty & cuddle with it sometimes..... sorry. :D

Just a note to all who may use this tactic of masking profanity. I realize it is just an example, but rules is rules. :D Check out this thread from the head man here. I figured I would throw this in before it goes there.
