I just went with the best of both worlds and have been happy ever since. . .I know if I was to crank things up my turbo would become a chunk of molten metal shooting down what is left of my exhaust combining with the chunks of pistons, valves and everything else inbetween. during the process my clutch would fly apart effectavely yanking out the flywheel and snapping the crank like a twig.

my how I love living on the edge.

Nick did you replace you Tq conv. or what? is it still doin it now or does it have have factory replacement.
i have not done anything with the situation yet..... to be honest i am not sure if its REAL bad yet, or if its even the torque converter but what ive read about it seem to be the problem. now that i am running no chips, i dont have the problem... but when i just had my powerpuck on it seems like all the extra power just made noise when i hammered it, almost as none of it got to the wheels. i should be getting my returns in 2 weeks and the day they come in is a mark for the day i order the smarty and when it comes in ill just have to see if i have the same problem[:-]

I will be taking my truck into the dealer to have the CP3 injection pump checked out, because I can see that it is weaping. I will be removing the Smarty and returning truck to stock before taking it in. I will be sure to let everyone know if I have any problems with the dealer.
