Hi everyone, I was one of the uneducated consumers of a Bully Dog triple dog GT tuner, at the time I was new to diesel trucks and just purchased the name that everyone tosses around. Later I found out that for my goals the Bully Dog would just not suit my needs so I unmarried it and now just use it for it's gauges. The reason I am revisiting tuners is because I am in the process of having a transmission built and figured this would be a good time to get a tuner that better suits my mods. 

 

I just found out that BullyDog is finally accepting custom tunes and I can actually upgrade to the software that will allow my tuner to accept custom tunes for free and then go to one of their registered local tuners and purchase a custom tune (not sure what tuning prices are yet). Now, in contrast to all of that Smarty has also released their Touch screen display model tuner which has peaked my interest but I wanted to hear what everyone here has to say about all of this. Is it worth the time and money to try out the new Bully Dog Custom tune software? Even though the software is free I’m sure that dyno time and tuning fees will be in the $400-$500 range or should I just move on and go with the Smarty ($935 for the hardware with 10 pre programmed power options and future dyno tuning capabilities)? :popcorn:

I e-mailed you some good info Ed, I think you will find it helpful. :thumb1:  I see you are from homestead Fl. My wife and I have been through there several times in the last few years, nice area we love all the produce stands, it feels like home with the small town Ag industry just like here in ND. :cool:

 

Between AH64ID and his extensive insider knowledge of the touch and me just learning but figuring it out fairly quick we can walk you through it and Brian from Smarty is on here almost daily as well.
