EFI live can do everything... there is no point to stacking with efi live, if you want more power you can tune it to do so

EFI live renders the "stack" useless because of its massive abilities to tune just about every parameter the engine allows, if you want just a small tow tune all the way up to a 2500hp drag truck, its the last electronic upgrade you will ever need for the ECM

so Im gona go with bad, stick to EFI live, ditch the edge

Ok man I appreciate it does efi live have preset settings like an edge or is everything manual tuning. I don't have a problem with the manual tuning just don't wanna hurt anyting on my pickup. Also does it come with a "manual" with the tuner.

EFI live is custom tuning. If you havent done it before I would probably leave it to a professional

there are plenty of shops out there that do custom tuning

duramaxtuner.com is one that quite a few guys like

You can also get a DSP5 which is a switch that allows you to instantly change between 5 pre-programmed tunes, from stock to pure race tunes that are higher quality than the Edge ones

I have an '02 Duramax as well. I also have an Edge J/A performance chip that is giving me fits right now...Everytime I shut down my truck the chip does a cranial reset. When I start the truck it gives me a warning and wants me to push enter. When I push enter it works perfectly...unfortunately it has given me just one more warning! I daresent push enter...any ideas??

you should call Edge, they should be able to help you with your problem, it sounds like it could be an electrical or electronic issue
