I have an edge too, but I have to say I would toss it into a pile of dog crap for a TW chip.......Finally got a chance to ride in one this past weekend. Another second off my 60 time OVER the edge in high tune. thats A LOT. look for my edge for sale soon on ebay........LOL

so is this problem on a cali truck?

In the Edge area where you are requested the year of your Ford, 1996 & 1997 were omitted from the application list.
I found this interesting because you wondered if it (the Edge/PCM failure) was a '97 PSD issue or maybe a Cali issue (I think)

What I would like to know is if I am safe? Had the evo for a few months now with no problems. Will it stay that way or can I expect my PCM to go south on me any time I change programs?

This is just a WAG. But it you were to go that route i believe you would have the problem. Your truck is a cali split. I just really think this is where the issue stems from. 97 can be single or split injected. PCM's are not the same.

Yours is a 94. You are good to go.

Rest assured that I have no intention of buying and or installing an Edge chip. If and when I do "Chip" it will be TW or DP. I don't need Edges Curse.
