Yeah, just set it to trans only and we can deduct from there. Although, it's not a scientifically valid test... We can make our own conclusions though
Even the trans setting only will give you a better 0-60 over stock as the shifts are so much more quicker. No more long drawn out sleepy shifts! The only way to do it at this point, I think would be to do your own 0-60 prior to the installation and go from there. Won't be as accurate, but if you want numbers, that would be the way to go.

I am interested in the power increases. A comparison between the trans only and the performance setting would give you an "idea" of the total power gain since the shifts are the same ( i think). It is only bench racing after all...

Oh well, i will have to wait for mine to come in to test....

I agree. Can anyone post some real world "before and after" numbers? Gotta say I'm really excited about this product.

Thanks!

Are you selling the one that you tested, if so did you not like it?

That's the craziest thing i have heard in a while.... You will Beta test an unproven product on your truck and then sell it because of warranty concerns??!!! If anything was going to go wrong, it probably already would have. Dont take this the wrong way, but something's not right with this picture...

Yeah, that really does sound strange. If there is something not so wonderful about the edge product....I sure hope you would speak up before many of us who bought one actually recieve ours. Being that I, for one, bought mine based heavily on the beta testers testimonials...which come to think of it have now pretty much gone silent. Hmmm...

Did you call or email Edge tech support?

I got mine in today and it worked fine on my truck. I set my truck back to stock to try it on my buddy's truck who has one on order and it gave the same error message, that it was unable to support his PCM.

I will not discuss Smeezys business but I did talk to him about it before the group buy and everything was legit.
