You send your Edge to them and they reskin it, convert it to a Gryphon and then they write custom programs to load in before sending it back. One, two or three programs, what you requested. The programs will be written to make best use of CAI if you have one and any other mods. The custom tunes do add a little more power but more importantly, they improve shifting and downshifting.

I ran Level 3 with 93 octane most of the time with the Edge. I got an 87 Performance tune and a 93 Performance tune. I run the 87 Perf most of the time.

Hey Bluejay,

I currently have the 87 perf tune, is it worth the money to get the 93 perf tune also? I love my 87 tune, just wondered if the 93 tune makes that much of a difference.

It gives just a bit more get up and go, plus you hear the air flow in the intake a little louder. If I didn't have one and had no plans for racing, I would not bother with it. I have run it a few timesbut the 87 gives me everything I need at less cost per gallon.
