Edge Evolution with BD tunes

Hey,
I have been talking with a 7.3 performance shop and they told me about a special BD tune that you can get on the edge evolution that is supposed to be super clean with some of the best mileage gains and power. Has anyone used this or does anyone know anything about it. I also heard edge has another tune that was similar but had a little more torque. I will be getting a tuner sometime this summer and would just like to get as much feedback on the best tuners for the 7.3 before I make a decision. The reason I like the new evolution is how it is mounted on your dash, can monitor egts, etc, etc, and its is cool looking. Bottom line though, I want the best mileage possible. Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks. One more thing I like is that edge will install tunes for free, you just send it in and they take care of it, you just cover shipping. It seems like every other company wants to get payed for every tune. A rare thing these days along with a great warranty.

I have a 01 excursion with the evo 2 and its good. I also wanted it for the guages and trouble code clearing and reading. It works great for that. I dont like that it takes 6 min to load a program. Most everyone on this site says to get the dp tuner. I figured I could have mine loaded later from dp with there tunes but now realize that I need to change programs on the fly so im getting the dp tuner f5. I also drove my truck like a race car for a week and smoked the trans so now I drive it nice in race mode and get great mileage. I think the evo2 is great and it will be perfect set in stock mode running the dp f5. Its the same price as guages and lets you read and clear trouble codes and you can choose from many types of guages like oil temp or volts ect. Dp has a great mileage program and if you dont have a bts trans or other beefy trans you cant really use a 120hp program anyway. hope that helps!

Tuner

Hey,
That does help. I will look into the dp. I just want the best mileage and wont be doing any burnouts or anything. I just installed my jobe performance intake today and the gains are pretty good. It was a pain to install though and I had to make some custom adjustments. It was a bad day!
