Default double stacking chips?

hey i have a 96 powerstroke with a edge evolution and i talked to a guy who does diesel tuning and he told me i should double stack chips, so i was wondering if anyone knew what chip i can or should double stack with the edge evolution i have already?

You can get a Tony Wildman Chip or TS Chip and you won't need anything else.

The edge evolution gives your truck the fuel it needs if you could find some sort of hypertech or a chip that makes the timing better it would run better. The ts plugs into your firewall computer

so the ts is a bad choice if i want to double stack chips? some guy who does diesel tuning told me i have to get a chip the plugs into my firewall comp. and he said if i get 2 prgramers they will beat each other up trying to send a recieve info so im wondering if i should even double stack chips i cant seem to find the right one to do it with.

i was thinking the bully dog or the ts chips but if they are bad choices i wont use one of them with the edge.

the evolution makes my truck smoke a little bit but im looking for alittle more of that diesel smoke and alot more power so if thier are anymore ideas on what chip i should put in alone with the evolution i would appreciate it. thank you

Like you found out since the Evolution reprograms the stock computer, you need one that that actually connects to the truck. What parameters does the Evolution change? Once you find that out you can get another chip to comploment the Edge. Just don't run them together if they both do timing. To much timing = problems.
