Yes you can. When you go into power programming you can select return to stock and it will restore everything back to stock with no trace of it being there. Then all you have to do is remove the ODBII cable and the mount and your good to go.

Just make sure to run the truck 100+ miles or so (i think) so that it will read normal. I yanked mine out when I went in for the inspection sticker and they didn't pass me because the codes showed that they were just reset. I had to go back a couple of days later and no problems. I then found out that I could have just left it alone and there would not have been any issues leaving it in level 3 tune for the inspection.

From what I understand the truck will record the the computer was reset but not what was changed.

What if they re-flash my PCM, even though i have set my truck back to stock, would I be able to re-connect the Edge???

Yes. The edge stores the stock program present when you reprogram the PCM. It must be stock before the dealer does a flash. If you have the Edge program installed and the dealer does a flash you have just turned your EVO into a paperweight.

Custom tuning. Edge Evolutions only have the canned tuning, Gryphons have canned tunes and you have the option of getting custom tuning also.

If you get you existing EDGE "GRYPHONIZED", you will have a custom tunes to take full advantage of your particular Mods
if you dont have the EDGE, dont get it then send it; just get the GRYPHON (same price)
