thanks

well thanks i'm actually looking to hear from a F150 owner 1st hand that has one I mean you guys have nothing good to say and that's fine but 2nd hand info isn't really what i'm after....if someone with a late model 5.4L has one then I'd just like some feedback.

its just another scam. like a throttle body spacer, they make better paper weights than gas savers

the reason you cant find anyone who has personally tried it is because most people have the good sense not to waste their money

if there was any kind of magical device that could improve fuel economy they would be on every vehicle right from the factory.....period. but if you want to waste your money go right ahead and buy one.

within the last two weeks they had one on Horsepower TV and did some dyno runs with it and with out, they showed a litttle gain in hp and a small gain in what they called gallons per hour ..IMO I wont be spending the $$ on that one ..

Fitch

well I obviously cant report on anything mpg related i've only driven about 40 miles so far, but I will say one thing, upon leaving the lot of the 4x4 shop that I had install it, I could tell a difference in the smoothness of acceleration and I don't have my Edge connected right now, but the smoothness and consistency accelerating from dead stops reminds me of before I had the Edge and then running with it connected made for much smoother consistent accelerating and throttle response. No chance in power that I can tell. I can't explain why or how but it's obvious and someone else that rides with me frequently commented it seemed smoother as well.

the small small gains they showed are probably running conditions, there is no way you can dyno an engine twice and get the same exact numbers.
