Thinking of buying used Edge Evo cheap...
HELP> Thinking of buying edge evo cheap.
What do I need to make sure of?
Will I be able to use it now that it's been in another truck?
I'm told it's been reset back to factory

Make sure its set back to stock. If its locked it'll cost another 75-80 to get it unlocked.
Also make sure its from a 2004-2008.
The 97-03+04H use a different cable.

It should.
If it has been returned back to stock/factory then you should have no problem using it in your truck assuming it is in good condition. My tuner is one of the best mods for the money I ever did. I bought my edge used and upgraded it later to a Gryphon.

After sending it in and having it upgraded did you notice a big differance?
I wanted to go Gryphon right of the bat but for the money I could at least enjoy this sooner. Then upgrade it later.
Only Performance mods I have are a AirAid Cold Air Intake Tube K&N and Magnaflow exhaust.

I ran the edge for a few months before I upgraded and yes there is a difference. The 87 custom performance tune on the Gryphon feels every bit as good as the 93 canned performance on the Edge to me. The 87 custom tow I got was better and if I just run it around town I get another couple of miles to the gallon with it.

Well I did buy it. For what I paied for it I'll be able to upgrade it later and still come in less then if I would have started out with a new edge or a new Gryphon!
BlueJay sorry about the double listing I just really needed a quick responce.
In the case of the MIT, certain trucks (strategies) have been known to tend lean with those. Hence if you plan on running the Edge on a perf tune ( which leans it out even more), you may need to have yer A/F's measured.
Ditch the MIT, do the Gotts mod and/or go custom ASAP. That way you'll ensure you are safe. No other way to tell sans measurement - not SOTP, butt-dyno, lack of a CEL,hearsay, moon phases or tea leaves...
If I misread what you said and you actually have the full Airraid WAI, you MUST get a custom tune or stay stock, as the Edge canned tunes are simply not designed to allow for a CAI/WAI. Does not matter that you have an '06.
On the Edge - soon as ya get it, load the software (from their website) and check for/apply any/all updates.

FYI - those are not perf mods, as none of the above will offer any 'perf'. They are what I classify as 'feel good' mods.

The MIT tube just replaces the original air intake and keeps the stock filter box.
Who would of thought that mod may influence a lean condition on certain vehicles?
It's just over glorified Gotts mode that doesn't have the silencers.
Just was wondering that's all........

You takes yer chances , or not. Direct A/F Measurement is key.
I don't take chances, which is why I invested in the means to do direct measurements.

Yes, really; one of several dealing with this and the 'shade-tree' intake mods. ==> https://www.f150online.com/forums/2230502-post10.html

I'm not running true duels so figured I'm pretty much stock there just louder.
And the intake looks nicer....
I did notice a slight MPG increase with the two though.
