EDGE Evolution intitial impressions
WOW!!
What a difference from stock! I have it on level 2 because I have a full tank of 87 and I can't wait to get the 93 in the tank for level 3!
Easy to install, instructions are easy to follow and very straight forward. First thing that I noticed is the transmission lag is almost gone. I hit the gas and it responds very quickly compared to stock.
I know this is still a big heavy truck and not a sports car, but it really feels like a completely different vehicle. I'll probably go through the custom program and gradually change some perameters, but for now i'l get through this tank and enjoy the difference!

Prior Planning Prevents **** Poor Performance
Mounting is easy, I used the velcro instead of the 3M double sided tape. If need be I can remove the entire housing and unit.

I'm just quoting the manual. I'm sure you can run 87 on level 3, but it says "required", so I'll be a good boy and follow the manual for now.

Guys - I really wish I had something to add here.....but am so excited to receive my Edge unit - I can't resist posting....Nick....running 87 octane with the Level 3 Performance tune - no pinging? Sounds like there is a bit more power to be had by adjusting the timing with the Level 3 Performance Tune - IF you are going to use 91 octane??
