If you could get back to me i'd really appreciate it, thanks~
The smaller box is a timing only box,it is not adjustable. It is rated at 75hp. Not to steer you away from our products but if you already have the edge ez, there's really not much point to getting ours unless you just don't like the edge ez. They basically do the same thing with just different tunes. Now ours, even though I say 75 hp that is the max. The way the box works is that it reads the boost from ecm and compares it to throttle position and adds timing accordingly. In other words, the full power is there when you need it and in reserve when you don't. It starts adding timing somewhere around 3-5 lbs just enough to give you increased economy, spool it up to say 10, 15 or more and you'll get the feel of it in the seat of your pants. Hope that helps answer ur question

Agreed on both parts. Unfortuneatly that is above and beyond my control. I just test and give input, no decision power what so ever. I was orginally told we could have them out by dec 7th, didn't happen because of a supplier issue. Now we build the test boxes in house, then farm out the mass production to a seperate company, that is where the hold up is from my understanding, I know mark is getting pretty ticked off, he's been using the same company for yrs, not sure what's going on exactly. The boxes andinteranl hardware are done, waiting on them to mass produce the harnesses so we can get them out. We also were on hold for awhile till we found a 01 truck to test on, finally found one, just waiting to get the adaptor harness which is supposed to be delievered by one of the engineers today, so hopefully things will get rolling so we can get this out to you guys

yeah youve got a point. although that was not my intention, it seems to be taking forever. im actually getting frustrated with it myself. I dont understand why we have to wait to get the entire order in before putting what we do have up for sale. Beyond me. ill talk to mark some mroe today, maybe we can find a way to speed things along

Don't get me wrong here, that wasn't aimed at you. Through the years on these sites I've seen hundreds of these big announcements and most every one of them works this way. All for different reasons, but never the less.

I know, its cool. Ive seen the same, thats why i kept my mouth shut for the 17 months of planning and developing and testing this box went through. I had my doubts at first, but if this thing ever does hit the market, I think itll raise the bar and do so without some of the negative aspects some other products have had. Honestly, i think thats why Mark is taking this so slow and not rushing the supplier too much, hes put alot of time and money into this box and does want buttons falling off or some other defect popping up. Just my personal feeling on that one based on some conversations with him.
