I have a question. If I set it on 90hp with timeing, will I need to worry about EGT's with normal driving? And is there a way to monitor Boost and EGT's without buying a $500 monitor. And If I did buy a Monitor how will it work with the Smarty?
Ok So It's multiple questions not question

2. You can use any monitor or gauges you want. They all hook up independantly for the smarty. It's connects to the OBDII port to do the upload and then you unhook it.
To monitor everything whether it be with a monitor or gauges, your boost will connect to the intake. Just remove one of the bolts and replace it with the boost tube connector.
For the EGT's you'll have to drill and tap your exhaust manifold.
The rail pressure connects to the MAP sensor and Fuel pressure sensor

Bob, how about sending me a Smarty to "play" with. As a dealer I am not allowed to suggest programmers. But I can give my personal opinion about the subject, if I am asked. I am not a fan of Bully Dog products and Not big on the Banks. Have not seen any problems with the Edge with attitude. Today a 2004 3500 came into the shop on a trailer. A friend of mine has a shop and this truck belonged to one of his customers. The owner had plugged in a Bully Dog and after the download finished, he said that it gave an error message saying to call Bully Dog's help line. The truck would not crank. They told him to take it to a dealer. The BD had erased the ECM memory. I had the truck running in about 15 minutes but only because I knew a way to figure out the original software version. Without that info, there is no easy way to reprogram the ECM. If I had of had to get a new ECM, the warranty would not have paid for it because when I sent the bad ECM in, they would have know what happened...
