I got an edge evolution about three weeks ago and am very happy with it. Found that I had to go to a 3" downpipe and 4" from cat back to use the extreme mode or I would bog on the hard start from a stand still.

that black smoke is wasted fuel, plus you better have some guages if you wanna blow all that smoke, atleast a pyro.

Yeah it is wasted fuel but u don't need no gauges. My friend has a 97 powerstroke and he has a Van Aiken chip and blows alot of black smoke no gauges or anything and he had never hand one problem with it. Also other friend 2000 Dodge 3500 wit a edge juice lots of smoke and no gauges.

I have to desagree, if you dont have gauges (at least a pyro like said above) you are looking for troubles, sooner or later ($$$$)

Its better to get a chip, Tony Wildman. And you should get guages!
