Edge!!!! WOW!!!!

To start, Im new here. I have been a long time follower and have gained loads of knowledge reading these posts. Anyways, I have an 04 FX4 Scab. Leveled with three inch body 35" toyo M/T's on 18" machined and black XD Rockstars. Exhaust is, well.... custom.LOL. Removed the rear two cats, no mufflers and an x-pipe trued out. After four years of owning my truck, I finally broke down and bought the Edge. (Which I lucked up and got for $200 on ebay!!!) Anyways, I was blown away by it. I messed around with the programming and ran 3 0-60 times under 7.5 seconds. This thing was a slug before, but would pull a house down. This is by no means flying, but I did a stock run at around 11 seconds first. I am pretty amazed at this product. I plan on sending it to PHP and seeing if that makes it even better. I decided not to go with the CAI until custom tuned because all I have read about the 04's running lean. I did do the "Gotts" or "DWV" Mod and cut the silencers off when I installed my edge. So far no issues. I added a couple pictures in my alblum, but they are not of the best quality. Oh, and just to throw it in there, I had to replace my motor last year, not fun, but the drive train has 105,000 miles, and the motor...... 12,000!!!!

I have been scouring the classifieds for about a month. Finally found a gryphon on here tonight. I am waiting for the gut to respond. HOPING I was first to PM him.

I am getting 35 BFG's on Friday so I will need it.

Enjoy it! Welcome to the site!

Hambone: I don't think the f250 gryphons work on 150's. But I could be wrong.

FYI i'm pretty sure PHP is no longer converting regular Edge programmers to their software. Pretty sure you have to buy a programmer from them. I could be mistaken, but i'm almost positive i've read that a couple times now.

They are no longer converting the monochrome Edge for 97-03 models due to the cable issue.

If you plug in the Edge and it recognizes your HEX code, you are good to proceed. If it does not recognize the HEX, it will do nothing and you will have no damage.
