have to get rid of the edge? :(

Well, I have a 98 f150 with a 4.6 and its procharged. I have an edge which is now useless, but I want to get it tuned. I have been searching everywhere to find a place to get it dyno tuned, but I can't find anywhere. I am located in San Antonio, TX if that helps any. If I cant find a place to get it dyno tuned, what else do I need to buy or who do I need to talk to? Guidance pwease

Well, I have been told that you can not used the canned tunes on the edge alongside with a supercharger. And I dont know anything about the edge other than how to use it. I guess someone could overwrite a tune in it or something, but idk . I might have to buy a different tuner?

This you can not, I wanted to take this way out too in my SC'd Harley but you can only get a custom tune if your trucks supercharged.

Dang! IDK where to get this stuff done. All I know about tuners is that the edge looked cool in the little pod thing. Now I cant even use that become of the triple guage pod pillar thing.

I have not contacted SCT! Would they be able to make tunes for me from a distance? I thought that the person that tuned it would have to actually be able to see how the truck was running if its supercharged. I dont know though

Have you been calling them fools?

I'm not speaking for Bill@PHP in any ways now.
But he likes to tune the sc'd trucks live.

But the 97-03 edge units cannot be upgraded any more.
So.........
Try to sell the edge in the classifieds.
Take that money and put it towards an SCT device from VMP or JDM.

Or...
keep the edge and use it as a "gauge only" while the other tune from the new programmer is loaded.
 


Quick Reply: have to get rid of the edge? :(
