Why are you "bumming rides"? You should have returned the truck to its stock tune before sending the Edge in. It's still drivable - just doesn't have quite the horsepower or torque.

It is back to stock, and that means it thinks it has the stock 3.73 gears and 31" tires when in reality it has 4.88 gears and 37" tires. Thus the undrivarability factor.

What? Last I heard it was taking 6 weeks to get a tune from PHP.

Your sig says "NOW" tuned by VMP. Did you once have PHP? Can you comment on any difference if that is the case?

I just did a rough calculation. If you increased your tire size from 31" to 37", you effectively decreased your gear ratio to about 3.10. To get back the "stock" gear ratio effect, you would have needed to install 4.47 gears. You went higher, to 4.88, so you have about an 8% error in speed, distance and part throttle shift parameters. I doubt that is significant enough for you to not drive your truck.

Interesting Jack, sounds like more math than I care to get involved with Anywho I dont think Ill chance it, its not a big deal getting a ride, it becomes more the volume or rides I need to get between 2 jobs, school, and various other activities. Plus I may have striped parts of the truck down and shoved it in a paint booth already Lots of modifications to the truck going on while I wait as patiently as an impatient person can

For future reference, the invoice was emailed to me. I then logged on to intuit (link sent by PHP) and paid the invoice.
