I'd look at the Edge EZ over a puck. Glad to see you have the Fass and gauge.

Depends on how much power "a little more" is. You are going to get more power out of a quad adrenaline or an edge programmer, smarty, the list goes on, when compared to the power puck. One thing you won't see with a power puck however is outrageous egt's since its such a mild tune. If you don't plan on turbo upgrades the 50 injectors and power puck may actually be a good bet. Otherwise theres much better programmers out there.

Not that I want to look like a deal breaker, but I bet a EJWA would give the same performance as a EZ and 50's. You will get better mileage with the EZ and 50's, but probably more power with a EJWA, or even better, an Edge COMP.

The problem with adding a high power chip is high egt's and roasting the trans. If you don't want to do a turbo and trans, keep it to the edge ez or puck. You will kill an auto trans, or a clutch in a manual with the EJWA, quadzilla, or smarty.

You could just do a set of rv injectors or 65's or 75's. I got great mileage when I used to drive with just my 75hp injectors and no tuning.
