Sure it adds great power otherwise but why have a truck that cant drive on the highway. I pulled them both and overdrive sounds great again. It gets better gas mlg. Am I missing something? I am going to ebay this junk otherwise unless any of you want it. I have asked people these questions before and no one seems to have an answer for the edge and airaid hitting 1800 or 1900 rpm and sounding like a starved cow. haha Have a great day!

thanks guys. I am not sure what I am going to do. I am running the edge now without the airaid using bluejay432000 's settings and it acutually runs really well. Not sure I want to invest more money into this. I honestly just got it to save money on gas. It just gets addictive when you feel the power. You want more. haha I have an 04 f150. Can I program it without buying another edge or just put this one on it and buy an xcal3?

They are both in a box in my garage, but it is that plastic intake setup, not the Edge tuner that causes it. TP custom tuning got rid of the drone on my trucks but the Edge tuning did not. My 2 cents here, get a 3" AF1 and use that with the Edge. Other than the AF1, I haven't seen any other independent tests for these intakes on an F150 other than bogus manufacturer claims.

thats kinda what I was thinking. I wasnt going to say it first. They look identical. haha You guys are teaching me a lot here. haha I just got back from another road trip. I ran the edge on 2 and 3. Edge works really well. I never got to experience it with that damn airaid installed. I wander if I couldnt make it into some kind shovel for yard work or maybe a beer bong. haha j/k (I do not drink)
