Hot Unlock-hot or not?
I have a feeling the results were always the same, they just didn't advertise it. I checked with a few buddies, and there manuals didn't have the "updated" increase in power either. Only the most recent manual that I have seen has the statement about the increase.
I have heard this many times as well, and even from a few Edge employees. None of my EJWA's can keep up with the Comp box I have.

Weird. I called edge with questions regarding this and I was told by one of the techs that lvl 6 does nothing on a manual trans truck, and in an auto truck only changes shifting patterns. Exactly what he told me about this year truck. He said it fuels harder on commonrails but not 2nd gen 24v trucks.

how does edge do anything to control the shifting patterns? It doesn't plug into the trans or obdII port. and yes level 6 makes a difference on a manual truck my dad has my old hot unlock level 6 edge juice with attitude on his 99 and it makes smoke actually on stock injectors and pulls harder. I am not sure what edge guy you talked to, but I think he had his head in the wrong place. I know it makes it fuel more aggressive on the bottom than what it does on level 5

it hits awesome!!!!! definitely tonnes more jam than stage 5. i am very happy with the added power but the egt's spike to the limit pretty quick...and i have way more pedal to hammer on. "with great power comes great responsibility" i guess. all i can think of now is bigger exhaust and a bigger turbo? what else can a guy do to keep the heat down? i also wonder if this problem will get worse if i put 110hp injectors in?
