Default TS or Edge w/ Juice?

I have a stock automatic 2003 7.3. I ordered MBRP 5" exhaust... now i am wondering what would be better for me? the TS PERFORMANCE 6 Position Chip or the Edge Performance Chip w/ Juice? If i get the TS i know i have to get gauges cause Edge comes with the monitor, but if the TS is better, i dont have a problem spending the money on gauges. I want to get the most horsepower without slammin gears. I also wanna make the road dissapear with coal.

Look up Power Hungry Performance or Murf Racing, both are sponsers here...

Post up on the sponser section and they can hook you up...

I would go with a TS based chip IMHO they are the best platform to get custom tunes from!

Regardless of whom you decide to go with, DO NOT get the Edge Juice. If you are looking at an Evolution CS or CTS, that's fine. But to put the Juice module in consideration against a chip or programmer is comparing apples to oranges. If you had a manual-transmission truck, the Juice would work just fine but it does nothing for automatic transmission functions and has the ability to cause transmission damage.

I am knocking around going with an Evolution CTS, but how is the Striker MD supposed to compare to it? I know it just hit the shelf but I was hoping someone would have something on it!?

Default TS chip

I will second what Lange 503 said about KT Performance. Kenny went out of his way to make sure I got my chip in time to install it and test drive before vacation this summer. Super nice guy who seems to know what customer service is. That is something that seems to be over looked these days but not by this guy.... Oh yyeah and PHP has great tunes unbelievable power and coolled my tranny temps a bunch...

It's the same kind of deal as the Edge Juice. No transmission functionality. Stay away!!
