P.S. atleast on the older Evolutions they werent switch on the fly
Well so far i like the Edge. Havent pulled anything yet with it. I like the way the truck shifts vs the TS 6 POS chip. And its like it has a Engine Brake now when u get on the brake vs the TS chip when u hit the brakes rpms drop all the way down to damm near idle. I put it in race mode on the way to work and it was hauling the mail.

I put it it extreme mode at lunch time today and wow!. Its shifts 5x better than the TS chip. I got 286k miles and it feels like a new tranny and converter. If i put the TS chip on 101 or 140 hp feels like tranny was jerking around trying to shift to many times. I LIKE THE WOT SHIFT POINT OPTION. Thats cool sence u dont want to sling to motor up to 3400 rpms to shift at WOT. .

it's not a engine brake. the TC is just staying locked. IMO edge is junk. just like smokey freedom said.

Well it works good in my truck. Better than the TS chip I had. It's not a race truck anyways it my tow truck to pull my race car to the track. If I want to go fast ill jump in my race car.
