From what we have heard, the thottle responce fix alone is worth the price of admision for this ride. I guess the extra HP and trans tuning is just a bonus. Not to mention the cool functions like 1/4 mile times.

I had the edge in my truck for a full week and yes the throttle response correction is worth every penny that you pay. I leave mine on stage 2 with no mods and the truck is like a whole different beast. Shifts are 100% better and the throttle response is unbeleavable. I am a very happy owner of this product. Highly recomend it.

Wow! Finely got mine in the mail, UPS sucks!

My thoughts on the EVO. On setting 2 (towing) it turns the truck into a car removing any sluggishness stock had, makes the truck sound meaner and the shifting snappy. I haven't tried the other settings yet, that will be today. Easy install, lots of display settings, alerts you on adjustable temps, rpm, and speed levels, and records different information for later viewing on your computer at home.

I'll give it a 7 out of 10. 10 being a Supercharger, 4 being air intake, and 5 being exhaust.

I second Dexsure on the 7.

I have mine in tow mode, timing +1 (87 octane and EMPTY), shift firmness +3all, raised shift points a little, changed tire size.....much more responsive, passes great.

I am not sure if the edge for your truck, is the same as the edge for our trucks (since this is the 04+ forum, and yours is 97-03).

Just to be clear:
With the edge you have 3 files available.
1 - Tranny tune
2 - Tow file (Includes Tranny tuning)
3 - Performance File (Includes Trans tuning)

Within the files, you can select to firm up the shifting or soften it from the default.
Within the files you can choose to adjust the timing/octane up or down to find your trucks max usable timing....every engine is a bit differant.
You can adjust tire size and gear ratio changes.
They are free to update with the newest releases of the software from Edge.
They include the pod in the price, unpainted in a black finish. You can choose to clean and paint the pod to match any color you wish with commonly available interior vinyl paint from your local parts store.
They include the USB cable to perform updates free and inside the box.
They have adhesive backed velcro for mounting to the dash inside the box.
Edge is very interested in customer support and customer service and have NEVER left a customer hanging without thier EVERY attempt at getting an issue fixed. I have personally sold over 300 of these units and have seen only one truck that was resistant to working with the unit....Edge got it fixed and the customer is truckng onward.
There is no product on the market today, or coming in the nearly forseeable future that combines the benefits, features, quality, cost, and looks of this product....there is no competition for the Edge Evolution for the F-150 today.

We appreciate you guys calling us and asking questions, and I look forward to talking to more of you. It is because of the folks on forums like this that allow us to offer the great prices that we do...if we were not selling them like hotcakes...we could not afford do price them so aggressively!

If any of you have further questions, please feel welcome to call and talk with me, or feel free to call and speak directly with Edge. Edge can found at www.EdgeProducts.com and we....well, you all know how to get us!

I hope this helps educate some of the new-comers to the forum, there is a huge ocean of tuners and aftermarket parts and suppliers out there, sometimes you just need to talk for a bit about what your about to consider getting. Thats what we are here for.
