To do it right, I'd recommend you contact Troyer, VMP, or PHP and get something custom. Have you even looked in our Tuners forum?

Fine. Go ahead and ignore me, I guess you don't want me to try to help you.

doug, look into custom tuning from PHP. last i heard it was like $25 for the trade in (for the gryphon, recased edge), then $50 a tune, can fit up to 3 custom tunes on it. it will improve your truck much more than the edge did, and they write your tune to support any mods you have (exhaust, intake, etc)
