I have the edge tuner in my pickup. It has a performance, towing and economy tune. Performance must be run with premium so it don't play with it much, I did manage to have all 4 wheels smoking at once one day out near a certain forum moderator's house. The towing setting really makes the truck stiff, totally changes the shift points around. The economy setting gets me about 1-2mpg's and i think it outperforms the stock factory tuning. Was around $300 - $350ish. The edge tuner for the psd's are $429.

i should check further into CAI's... still leaning towards the volant or roush, likely the volant. they have very good satisfaction ratings.

No, He never said what stage it was. I think it was around the $400-$500 range.
