You are right in your assumption about the Edge being for stock engines, but that is talking about intakes. The exhaust is not a factor.

Edge does not work well with an aftermarket intake since the Edge tuning is designed for the factory airbox. It knows nothings different and can't make adjustments. The exhaust isn't going to effect much and nothing in terms of tuning. Now if you had long tubes and no cats than yes there would be some things different in the tune but even than not much.

The transmission only setting only alters the transmission in a sense of where it shifts and how it shifts. As far as not seeing power on Lvl2 or Lvl3 there is a problem. There should be a LOT more power there compared to Lvl1 or the factory tune. I suggest you send Bill an email in the mean time since he's so busy. Do what I said as well, it couldn't hurt anything.

Yep, you should feel about 20 to 25 HP. Enough that you wouls never want to go back to stock.
