Edge evolution ????

Hi I have a 1995 ford F250 powerstroke , it has an aFe stage 2 intake and 3 and a half straight pipe and 262000kms. I am looking to put the edge in it but i dont want to grenade my motor i tend to have a heavy foot . I am worried about the kms on the truck and how the injection system and the turbo will take it. So any horror stories or have you had good luck . Thanks!

Get yourself a set of gauges and learn to drive by them... You might loose a tranny with that many miles, but thats just going to happen.

I would recomend a chip over a programer myself... Contact Bill or Corey at Power Hungry Performance, they can set you up with a chip, or even a custom tuned Edge unit that will be night and day better then the stock ones.

check up in the sponser forum, Power Hungry Performance...:tu:

thanks i dont know if i can go through power hungry performance because i am in british coloumbia canada but i will try and just exhaust temp gauges??? :humm:

Id get Exhaust Gas Temp and Boost Gauges.

i had an edge evolution on a 96 PSD i had. it was a built auto loader. that chip wasn't worth a dam on tow. race and extreme did ok. but overall i think it did better on stock. i would go with a 6 position chip.

auto loader tranny...

If it is an auto get a trans gauge, boost and pyro. Id also recommend a bigger trans cooler the stock one is tiny. ANd its the weakest link.

I had an Edge for my Duramax. It was a piece of junk with all kinds of quirks and bugs. And my experience was better than most people I've talked to. I will never use their products again. It seems to be a trend that wherever you go there are always people with bad experience with Edge products, often putting them in dangerous situations with the vehicle shut down and unresponsive.

Myself and I think cowmilker has has got inline with now due to his recent experiences have become the biggest anti edge people on our particular forum. Beware of what you get. Edge is known to produce more power, but lots more problems to go with it. Its not uncommon for it to mess up the PCM and you have to have the dealer reflash the computer because it wont entirely release the program. They cause lots of strange problems due some more research on it before you buy it'll be worth the effort. The programming they use seems fine in the gen2 7.3's but not in ours it just screws up your truck it has to several of our members here. So much so that nobody here really recommends them for anything except to be sold to some other uneducated sucker. Just a word of caution.

I also have the Edge Evolution on my truck. It failed on me one time in my driveway.if you want an EDGE, I will sell mine to you for 250.00 and put the money into a real chip. I must recommend not to buy the Edge though. Just my .02.

now, php i do understand you REprogram edge evos.. and to me that says it all. REprogramming means fixing the original problem... the problem being the factory edge tunes.
