Another "just got an Edge" thread
So I finally decided to pony up for a tuner. I liked the XCal but decided to try out the Edge. I hope I'm not disappointed. Its going to take a lot of willpower but I think I'm going to leave it on the stock tune for a couple days and do some datalogging. I want to see what affect the performance tunes have on temperatures, etc. Hopefully I can wait long enough, I really want to plug in level 2 and let 'er rip.

i just got mine in the mail thursday night - updated the EDGE - plugged into the truck - programmed to level 2 - off i went
WOW
i can't stress enough how impressed i am - was worth every penny!
gas just dropped 25 cents here in the past 3 days - i think i will try 93 for my next tank and advance timing on level 2 to +2
btw: i mounted in the ashtray - nice and stealth!

Thats looks good for us Mountain Folks but Edge was tested up in mounatins?

I am running 93 octane and the timing is bumped to +1.75 with no pinging. I first had it at +1.0 and the tail pipes were showing black residue as if it were running too rich, so I bumped it to +1.75.
