That's subjective, but I personally see no need for an Edge. The X4 can read and clear codes, but my Torque Pro app on my phone can do that too. The Edge can read live data, but so can Torque Pro. Edge can record logs and such, so can Torque Pro... all I needed was a tuner that could write custom data and the X4 did that, and there were actually probably cheaper tuners I could've gotten for that purpose.

Isn't the insight just a monitor not a programmer?

Yes. Get the edge Evo, besides being the cheapest almost. It also monitors. You can get it off eBay with the dash mount and free next day air shopping for $320. Then it can be updated to the gryphon. I think that's how it's spelt

yeah that's one thing that I really like about the evo. i also love the dash pod that makes it look like it is part of the dash!
