Thank you for all the responses! How much does an edge EVO tuner run? Also how can you get tunes for it? Are they already on it, or can you get someone to create a tune?

Thanks Sanny! I'm going ot mess with it a little when I get it, I don't see my self getting too crazy.
As far as tuners go, you can probably pickup a used on for no more than $250 with a custom pod for your dash.. if you're looking to go new, it'll run $300 plus. From my understanding, these will come with what they call "canned tunes" but you can purchase custom tunes for like $50-$75 from what I've read.

X2 on the edge. Prolly the best upgrade I've done. Look around in the for sale section, there always for sale. Average price like states above is 250$ shipped with dash pod. They come with 3 canned tunes that are great. Can aways get a custom tune from Power Hungry Performance for around 60$.

I was just looking on eBay for one. $250-$300, which doesn't seem bad at all by the way you guys talk about how good it is. How difficult is it to instal it?

Like a leve .5 haha just plug it up to the truck, hide the wires, mount just snaps on and plug to tuner. Then go to programming and load whatever tune you desire, follow on screen instructions and your done

That's nothing. Thought it'd be a pain to instal it. Also if you want to get tunes made do you send the tuner out? Or can the manufacture email the tunes to you?

I'm 90% sure PHP (power hungry performance) is the only person that does custom tunes for them. They do email them to you.

So today I finally had a chance to get more pictures of my truck. It's starting to form rust around the wheel welds, which I knew about when I bought it. I know this is a common problem on the OBS, but does anyone else have the same issue? I do live in Pennsylvania and they put a ton of salt and brine down in the winter. Also my interior is disgusting, the arm rest is a complete different color and there is a pretty big hole in the drivers seat. Also today I had to put in new exhaust hangers, since the two dry rotted and I took off the running boards. Makes a huge difference. Also does anyone know if I can get new corner pieces for my cowl? My one side is gone and my other side is broken and makes noises while driving at highway speed.

What brand is your fuel door?
