Yes, maybe it sounded like that, but not. I saw in your sig, the sticks. I was trying to answer to Big red_11, and I only mention that your point about the PHP chip with not to smoke, compared with the DP and TW was important for me, because I havent heard that. thanks.

Good luck,... because with the edge your gonna need it. Myself and I think cowmilker has has got inline with now due to his recent experiences have become the biggest anti edge people on our particular forum. Beware of what you get. Edge is known to produce more power, but lots more problems to go with it. Its not uncommon for it to mess up the PCM and you have to have the dealer reflash the computer because it wont entirely release the program. They cause lots of strange problems due some more research on it before you buy it'll be worth the effort. The programming they use seems fine in the gen2 7.3's but not in ours it just screws up your truck it has to several of our members here. So much so that nobody here really recommends them for anything except to be sold to some other uneducated sucker. Just a word of caution.

I'm putting an x3 on that.
Get the real deal. Not a fits all manufactured setup.

Chips from DP, TW and PHP are all burned to what you have installed in your truck.
Not just a one size fits all setup.
