Hey there. Just a heads up I would probably look at doing a cold air intake system and definately your exhaust. If you can afford to do the dpf delete I would jump on that. Always with more power you add more heat. So meaning your exhaust temps rise as well as engine temps. The smarty does help lower your egt's but regardless if you are adding piwer to it I would for sure do yourself a huge favour and go buy an edge cts monitor as well so you can monitor all of the important stuff. I own a smarty jr and set it on level 2 the 60 horse setting. My truck is a 5.9 mind you not the 6.7 so my power is not as yours is stock. Sadly one weak point in these trucks is the transmission and they are costly so monitoring the temps may help give piece of mind. Do not overpower yourself because it feels good to have the extra. In the long run it can break the bank. But for sure the smarty is a great choice . I believe best for dodge. Good luck
