I should be hopping on the dyno this weekend (As long as my brother doesn't blow up his 05 first)

Couple of questions: Anyone have any thoughts on which level for a smarty only run? Any thoughts on which level for a smarty + TST run? 

 

And for the fun part! Guessing

Give your guess for: Smarty only and smarty + TST   My sig is up to date!

how is the miss now?

Consistently getting worse.... And now I've got two crossover tubes leaking near the head. I think it's time for a new set!

Yup! Brand-new from Cummins

Yup... I'll pull the valve cover loosen the injectors, pull all the lines and clean the tips, Then reinstall. Hoping it'll clear up at least some of this miss.

If they would've been overfueled the same rate as this, No contest.They were set up to chug all day, day after day at that ancient rate capacity.10 seconds of burst is a completely different story. Semi trucks would rarely have the throttle pushed to the rubber mat.I got a 903 cummins that was typically set up for anywhere from 275 up to 375 horsepower.. mine is on 320, Continuous duty..When they were stuck in Coast Guard pursuit vessel, they were fueled for 1500 HP, 2880 ft. lbs, and 3000 rpm momentary duty. 45 minutes was what the limit was at this rate. (kinda weird, shoot... after 45 minutes, what's the difference?) LOL< probably out of fuel then!!'overfueling' isn't necessarily just the level of what an engine can withstand before damage to the engine occurs... It's just any amount of fuel over and above the rated capacity.vehicle manufactures ( semi truck, ag tractor etc) look at the total package too. driveline,transmissions,clutches, frame.. everything must be able to handle the torque coming out of the engine... day after day..Engine manufacturers know exactly what level an engine will self destruct at any level, over a certain time frame...... and keep us (joe public) well away from it...

I agree. Just talking base numbers of an engine that was jammed in a pickup truck.

I drive a tri axle 379 Pete with a tri axle low boy on occasion with a 600 cummins twisting an 18 speed. I always wondered what that would be like turned up. It's damn fast, and will pass anything loaded or not- it's scary actually that you can make 60k pounds empty move like that.

Have you towed much with this set up yet? I know I asked you before, just wondering if you've had the chance to give the set up a good work out lately. I'm pretty well set on the PS.

You can't have mine... Talk to Eric at Vulcan Performance! Comes with o-rings!

OHHHHHH Are you sure you don't want to ship them to me!?!?!? Haha just messing. I'll give Eric a call because he sponsors this forum. Mike what do you have to say about the smarty curve?? Been waiting for you to throw your  in...... 

 

Diesel4life nothing too big yet.. Just a couple of snowmobiles. I wont until tractor pulling season starts up again. Might pull a 4 place snowmobile trailer this weekend with 4 sleds and a bunch of gear maybe 5-6k. If only the cab was bigger!

All I can say is the Smarty I got from Bob Wagner was back in 2006 when I borrowed it. It was great on the low end but got very flat on the upper end with or without my Edge Comp. Then I remember all the dyno runs and people stacking Smarty with other modules and always complaining about Smarty being flat on top. So the only thing I can say is something has changed. I'm not sure what but its change in the software. I really wish that Smarty UDC would happen for the 24V's then I would be all over it. Because then I could build a good base software for the Edge Comp to ride on.

Totally agree Mike. I want a UDC!

I think the smarty is deceptive though since it's such a smooth curve. I want to do a comparison with my comp vs smarty revo. Alone the smarty is not a comp, but it runs very well and my cruise still works with my 125s and 62/12.

You're absolutely right Mike... Check out when the REVO was made 

Does he have the crossover tubes in a set of 6 on his site?? All I can find is the individuals without O rings.... http://www.vulcanperformance.com/SearchResults.asp?Search=connecting&Submit=

Cruise doesn't work with the comp?? It is deceptive!! I had no idea I had 372hp when I tow! Guess that explains why I can fly up the mountain passes with the snowmobiles and others struggle 

And UDC isn't going to happen through smarty. We are a forgotten about generation

It works, but I have to dial it back to 3. I should try it again. I'm currently running smarty only with the comp off.

Call Eric directly and ask him.

Weird... Mine works even with the TST on 9

 

Thanks Mike I will do that this morning! Hopefully he can 2 day them for me
