Works pretty good. I get a mile to the gallon better. When I tow a 13000 lbs fifth wheel camper it really does a great job. More hp and 1.6 mile to gallon better. Now the truck doesn’t shift gears as much.



by:

Just got programmer installed with dash pod, I haven't driven for any amount of time with the programmer running, but the programmer was easy to set up. It has a ton of functions to customize programming, I'm looking forward to using for towing 33 ft fifth wheel. The installation was fairly easy on an 03 GMC Sierra.



by:

Not a huge difference, towing my 28' travel trailer, but I do appreciate the firmer shifts and ability to see more engine parameters on screen. Over all, happy with the product. Easy to install and use.



by:

Great increase in Power, great improvement while towing. the only drawback with the 2005 F150 that I have it on, with the tuner in "performance " mode, the engine will randomly go into fail safe mode, throwing codes for the throttle body...but leaving it in Tow mode is great, and does great with zero problems.



by:

It works as promised... our water supply never froze during subfreezing temperatures



by:

Amazing product. 80 hp gain and boosted fuel economy

  • Troubleshooting Edge Programmer that Wont Power Up When Plugged Into Vehicle
    The problem you described sounds exactly like a blown vehicle fuse. Since Dodge changed where the OB2 port gets its power, you will need to check the fuses for either the underhood light or the dome light fuse. If you find a blown fuse that is causing the problem you just need to replace it and you should be good to go.

  • Troubleshooting Edge Programmer that Won't Power On When Plugged into Vehicle
    Have you tried seeing if your cigarette lighter auxiliary plugs on your truck are still active? That power circuit is often times the same power circuit for the OBDII connections and when it fails programmers won't power on.

  • Optimal Transmission Setting for Edge Evolution 85200 CTS Programmer for Everyday Driving
    I reached out to my contact at Edge for his input and he suggested sticking with Level 2 (Economy) for everyday driving. It will give you some horsepower boost but more so keep you within reason. He mentioned Level 2 for everyday driving and Level 1 (Towing), especially if you're towing a trailer 6,000 pounds or higher.

  • Troubleshooting Edge Evolution CS2 Programmer on 2005 Ram with Cummins Diesel
    The Edge Diesel Evolution CS2 Performance Tuner - Color Screen - CA Approved # EP85301 is a fit for your 2005 Ram 3500 Cummins Diesel. I reached out to my contact at Edge and they said the switch not on is normally due to another programmer being previously installed on the truck. They did have issues with the 2005 models specifically, so they recommend contacting them directly with your serial number of your tuner so they can look up the files to help further.

  • Troubleshooting Edge Evolution CS2 Tuner That Will Not Turn On
    Since your Edge Diesel Evolution CS2 Performance Tuner # EP85301 is not powering up, you could try hooking it up to another power source such as a laptop or another vehicle to verify if the issue is with the tuner itself or your vehicle. If it works on another vehicle then I would check your fuses and the circuit going to your connector where this tuner plugs into. If it does not work on other vehicles either then it could be the power cord or a faulty tuner perhaps.

  • Edge Diesel Evolution Plugged In, No Screen Just Beeping Sound
    Per Edge uploading the latest software update for the Edge Diesel Evolution CS2 Performance Tuner # EP85301 is your best next step. That update is availble on their website and once the Fusion update is complete, your unit should go into a recovery mode and power back on. If it does not do that then you may have a faulty unit that would need to be replaced. Included is a video overview resource for the Evolution as well.

  • California Legal Programmer Recommendation for a 2011 Ford F-250 Diesel Powerstroke
    For your 2011 Ford F-250 with a 6.7 Powerstroke diesel I would recommend the # EP85301. It is a great option though so it would work well for you.. This programmer will boost the efficiency of your motor a solid amount without requiring you to upgrade your exhaust. This programmer has an economy tune that you would want to use for everyday driving and a tow tune that would maximize efficiency while towing.

  • Are the Mileage Coaches Available on Edge Programmers Accurate and How do they Work
    The mileage coach that is on the Edge programmers like the Juice with Attitude part # EP85301 for your 2008 Dodge Ram with Cummins is accurate. It can read how much fuel your vehicle is consuming and then comparing that to what speed you are traveling it can calculate mileage quickly. If you are on the highway cruising along at a moderate pace the mileage will be pretty high. It's the starting and stopping that tends to really consume the fuel.

  • Horsepower Increase of Edge Programmer Installed on 2006 Ford F-250 Powerstroke
    The Edge CS2 programmer part # EP85301 is normally good for up to 80 additional horsepower and 200 ft lbs of torque on a totally stock vehicle. With basic bolt ons the power increase is hard to specify exactly but typically the bolt modifications work great with the programmers and you gain right at the same power on top of the power increase of the bolt ons. Now you did say you have a upgraded turbo which if the turbo is a different size than what your truck came with you'd need to look...

  • Troubleshooting Error Code 150 on Edge Diesel Evolution CS2 Performance Tuner
    I spoke with my contact at Edge regarding the 150 error code you're receiving with the Diesel Evolution CS2 Performance Tuner # EP85301. He stated that this error code essentially means that the tuner has lost communication with the ECM (engine control module). He said that as long as your truck is fine (it can start and run) then the error code can usually be cleared by simply unplugging the tuner, letting it sit for a few minutes, and then plugging it back in. This should allow it...

  • My Edge CS2 Tuner Comes On When Engine Is Running, Is This Correct?
    The instructions for Edge Evolution CS 2 Performance Tuner # EP85301 state that the unit will power on as soon as it detects that your vehicle has started, so this matches what you are seeing. The instructions also state that you will be able to turn your key to the on position (without starting your vehicle) and then press enter on the tuner to power it up. I attached a link to the instructions along with a demonstration video for you to check out.

  • Horsepower, Torque and Fuel Economy Gains from Using Edge performance Tuner EP85301
    Performance tuners that fit your GMC 2500 can indeed deliver benefits like increased towing power and torque and they can also help improve mileage performance. All of the tuners that fit the two different engines available in your truck are shown on the linked page, such as the Edge # EP85350, which works for the 6.0L V8 gas engine. Tuners have different programs or tunes that can be loaded into your truck's computer (where your original tune is stored for safe keeping). You can select...

  • Are Edge and SuperChips Programmers The Same Thing
    Superchips and Edge are both made by the same company at this time as Edge just recently bought out Superchips. The programmers and tunes are different though so if you really don't like Superchips an Edge programmer would be a great choice still. If you have gas engine in your 2008 Dodge Ram you would want the part # EP853350. If you have the diesel you would want the # EP85301 instead.

  • Edge Performance Tuner Settings in 2004.5 Dodge Ram with Cummins 5.9L Diesel
    The Edge performance tuner that was stolen from your truck has the vehicle's original engine tune stored in its memory. To return the unit to the stock tune you would either need to have the computer flashed by a dealership or locate and re-install the tuner to re-load the OEM settings stored in it. Given your truck's sizeable output power I think you should still be okay doing occasional towing and your daily commute with the truck engine set in the economy mode. This tune does not add...

  • Programmer for 2002 GMC Sierra Diesel to Maximize Mpg and Torque While Towing
    The Edge Evolution CS2 you mentioned would be an excellent choice in programmers, if your Sierra does NOT have either the LB7 or LLY engine with manual transmission. The Evolution CS2 has several pre-loaded tunes, including tunes geared toward maximizing fuel economy or improving towing performance. The Evolution CS2 can increase your torque up to 210 ft/lbs. The Evolution CS also features the Edge Mileage Coach, which displays information about various parameters that will provide an...

  • Choosing Programmer or Gauge Monitor with Cold Air Intake on 2010 Dodge Ram 2500 Diesel
    A cold air intake is a passive system, and wouldn't really be dependent on any input from a programmer. Either the Insight or the Evolution would work well with the Edge Jammer CAI. You'll get modest HP gains by adding the CAI, but the Evolution # EP85301 (approved for use in CA) can provide an increase of up to 95 Horsepower which will provide a noticeable increase in power and efficiency.. The fundamental answer to your question will really depend on your desired outcome. If you decide...
