Unhappy need help with edge tuner

hello, i have a 03 PSD 6L
i only have a cat delete pipe/ gauges
i have programmed with the edge evolution , and when i power down hard 3/4 to full pedal. sometime over half..anyway it cuts in and out bad .. kinda like its running out of fuel.. i changed filter (fuel) and still doing it. if i am on hwy at high speed it does not do it intill it kicks down then it does it.. also when i am at dead stop and push down 1/2 pedal it also does it.
like its missing (if i had a gas engine i would say bad plug wires,etc)
so any idea whats wrong ?
thanks

Unhappy runs good on extreme

ok, update on tunner, it does run fine (kick as burning rubber) on extreme mode.
(100hp) but on tow mode (60hp) it runs like crap. so it cant be running out of fuel then or it would not run good on extreme. so this is weird

Yep same as mine....that makes me belive that it has to in the programing of the tuner and not the truck, I dont know for sure just my thought???? yes it did the same exact thing with 2 different tuners

Exclamation resetting truck pc

ok, the other tuners . list them so other people and i with 03 PSD stay away from them.
i kinda think its the truck, meaning not the truck like just my truck, but if tuners do this maybe its the program / computers on the 03 that have a problem.
also the other tuners.. did it do it in all the modes ? or low mode like the edge did ?
another thing is that the data stream worked before the other tuner took a crap. so if this tuner is not seeing thdata stream did the other tuner break something on my computer? it should work, is your data stream working ? or could it be the my truck has the lastest ford flash and its blocking it ? i did take my truck in about a month ago for work. worked before that. i dont want to leave my truck in extreme mode..( affraid of blowing head gasket)
i think i will ebay it.
its a sham i cant use the 60hp setting my boost is getting up to 35lb on extreme mode and stock its around 25-28
i dont have a boost gauge using the data stream on egde unit(boost works and oil temp thats all) i was think of return to stock tune and unpluging truck batts for 10 mins to see if it reset the computer on truck then retune
what do you think ?
do i have to unplug both batts for this ?
thanks

No I havent tried unhooking the batterys to reset....good idea let me know if it does anything....Ebay the tuner would be my best advise mine lays in my back seat doing nothing ,like you I dont want to run it on extream setting for fear of tearing things up...what I wanted mainly was improved MPG....I have herd that the SCT work well but I havent done much checking on them....if I get another I will do more reasearch than I did on the eveloution, I had figured that edge was a good company with a good product but I think they are missing something here...one thought I had was my build date on my truck is 06-03 one of the last for 03 I think they were making some of the changes then that they did in 04, maybe the truck is programed as a 04, but I downloaded my trucks info onto the tuner and sent it to edge so they could figure it out but they couldnt
