Default Edge or quadzilla??

I just bought a 2002 6spd dually and am wanting more power. I already have a cold air, exhaust and an edge EZ on it. But I want more! Ive heard great things about both and am just not sure which one to go with. Opinions are wanted. Thanks.

Edge juice witha attitude can go up to 150HP with hot unlock setting and Quad Adren can go past 200hp with custom software available to download. The edge makes the fueiling smooth and the quad can be rough

My vote is on the quad. I am running the aforementioned custom tunes. They are a little rough when you accellerate slightly aggressive and allow the speed to catch up to your throttle position without letting off... Its like a little surge. If you let off some it doesnt do it... The roughness is NOT unbearable at all.

A big plus for the Quad is that it has Droid and Iphone integration... Turning your droid or iphone into the gauge display and tune level control!!

They also have fuel pressure switch and warning settings for almost all monitored inputs!!

Love my Quad w/ Pulse

I noticed you do NOT have a fuel system listed (Airdog or similar) that should go before the tuner. You will over fuel your stock lift pump... Not a good idea.

Also you wont need to worry about high level tunes until you stud your head and or o-ring it. Youll pop that gasket quick. Trust me, i have first hand experience!

...the quad sounds nice, didn't know about the iphone integration, got myself an Edge a while back from Diesel Parts - DotComDiesel.com and happy with the performance still.

edge juice cts trade in the ez for it. quad is not all it's cracked up to be. my edge added 180hp to the rear wheels as tested on the dyno one day.

thanks guys! I'm planning on getting a FASS titanium, 125 hp injectors and a bigger chip at the same time. I'm kinda leaning toward the quad, I've heard they're realll agressive.... and I kinda like that! haha

The quad ca be VERY aggressive. You will need... triple disk torque convertor, billet input shaft, upgraded valve body/trans, and at least a laminated flex plate. Trust me...I made those mistakes If you have the standard trans...dual disk clutch.

if you go quad just hope the thing is not doa then they send you another one also doa all the big power trucks are still running the edge because the quad just blows a lot of hot air.

well I cant decide, I have the 6 speed tranny, but i dont really like the new edge juicer, I like the older one with the insight monitor the best but theyre hard to find. And say i went with the adrenaline, what kind of tuning would i need to put on it?
