A lot of people bought it. But I can't say anything, cause I bought an edge evolution. And it doesn't do half the things they said it would. All it is, is an expensive water temp guage that makes your tranny shift rough.

It said that it would display transmission temp, and engine oil temp, and allow custom tuning options for engine and transmission performance. It was supposed to allow changes in speedo to account for larger tires, and blah blah .....

It's probably a resister in a fancy box that takes the place of your IAT sensor, like the "diodes" they say "other fools" are selling on e-bay....

Don't give these guys your money.

Haha, one of the feedbacks said it shaved 1.6 seconds off their 1/4 time. It amazes me that it's legal to make these kinds of claims on bs products. Oh well, that's why you do your homework before buying something, espescially from eBay.

I like how it doesnt actually say what exactly it does.

Maybe its just me, but i need a good reason to spend my money even if its only 10bucks or w.e

I grant that a mistake was made in the manuel and on the EGR website about trans temp.
Nowhere was it ever stated that engine "oil" temp could be measured. There is no sensor in the engine to allow this measurement so the tuner cannot be programed to do so.
The tire and gear corrections can be made.
Fuel changes and spark adjustment can also be made as well as trans shifting changes for firmness and rpm shift points.
Trans firm shifting can even be removed from the Levels if you take the time to learn how it's done.
Whoever is saying these custom changes cannot be done, is dead wrong.
Nothing like grinding your axe on someone else.
