Newbie here and I don't want  to beat a dead horse,BUT,! Here I go. Have a 2000 3500 dually, 5spd ,4:10s 185000 miles. This thing is useless,very disappointing TRUCK,but I like it!  On the same roads,pulling the same loads that I did with my 401 powered Jeep Cherokee. This TRUCK would never keep up! I have replaced the lift pump, injection pump, all the filters, clean the fuel system out, rebuilt the turbo, replace the gate valve. I have good fuel pressure, plenty of boost. Sucks fuel like it's free. Everything except for gate valve is stock.No exaggeration,,, it Hardly pulls my 1car trailor.Ready to burn it! I got it to carry my truck camper an tow my trailer with JEEP on it at the same time. Not gonna happen  HELP

Truck looks good.

If truck really has less than 100k I thi k I'd sujest a quad programmer first. If truck had 200k I'd say I injectors first.

That's a good looking truck

Yes it all goes to the site. I only get a cut of what left over after bills are paid. If the income is low I lose a paycheck or its really skinny like April of $20 for the month.

Check cost me a 250 mile round trip to the bank to process. No longer have a local bank. Then I need to transfer the funds from my personal account to M73M Paypal account.

 

When you use the debit card. I don't have to drive 250 miles to a bank and back and then I don't have to transfer funds. Its directly deposited in the Paypal account. Much easy for the bookkeeper to keep up with.

Thank you.  All indicators I have including title check/car fax & seriously looking it over for tell-tale signs before buying the mileage is accurate. So you think I should change it from a Smarty3 tuner to a Quad (I  assume you mean quadzilla)  ?

Everything I read about Tuners Smarty3 was the choice for best and/or practical mpg, etc. (Until I bought it & had it installed then I found 2 respected opinions mentioning the Quadzilla as a possible better choice.  

My list is so long now of wanted maintenance & upgrades.  Dowel, electrical interference (converter lock), transfer case support (supposedly a mount that fits GM will work in a direct fit), cooling system bypass, transducer etc for the Tranny  and on & on.

Smarty S-03 is very limited tuner. No adjustable timing or fuel maps for larger injectors. It was design around a stock injectors. Quadzilla has full fuel table control and timing control to fit your fuel system. Like Smarty S-03 limits to 19° BTDC for timings for most settings. Like Quadzilla and 7 x 0.010 @ 320 Bar injectors I run 24° BTDC timing which cannot be done on Smarty S-03.
