What do you want it to do? Just HP?

On my LLY I had really good luck on the predator for a programmer, others do not think it adds enough power but it was better then the Hypertech or the Quadzilla for me.

You will hear some not so great things about Edge.

keep it under 70hp for dailly driving, you can live dangerously and put it higher, i used to run my quadzilla on 215, i just watched out for the 4-5 shift to try and keep it from limping, i did limp my stock trans alot though cause i didnt like losing
