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.
Hm.. I guess I will have to get me a SCT then. Hopefully I can get it tuned quickly.

I think that is Cajun for "you must have a custom tune if you have a supercharger".

Carolinaboy - YOUR Edge CAN be "converted". It's the pre-04 truck models that are not going to be converted anymore.

As far as calling them, just keep trying. They're extremely busy and it's hard to get through.

I would have it dyno tuned at a reputable performance shop.

Thats what I have been looking into doing, and jerame pointed me in the direction of a place called Murillo sports to do that. I just called them, and they say that I would need to either 1.) get a tuner capable of uploading their dyno tune (either through buying one of theirs or buying a chip from them) OR 2.) go buy a tuner and have it when I take the truck to be dyno tuned. They did mention that the edge wouldn't work for anything though.

If you are going to use Murillo or a place like that for a real dyno tune, for best results and support I would buy the programmer from them.

Should've asked them when you were talking to to them on the phone.

Edit.
Found it.

All depends on their rates.
