Ok, i know this will sound stupid, but what exactly are Gryphon and Edge programmers for other then HP and Torque gain?

 

AZfx4 has one ask him... i thought it was only customs tunes but might control shift points?

 

Has I believe 12 different parameters you can watch. Like Average MPG, RPMS, MPH, Engine temp ect ect. Serves as digital gauges and you can even set an alarm on them so if they get to a certain temp you don't want to reach it will go off if your not paying attention which is cool.

You can control alot of different things. You can mess with WOT, shift firmness, rev limit and a bunch of other things. Go to www.powerhungryperformance.com and read there or Edge's website. It tells you a bunch of stuff.

 

How accurate are those read outs??? I want to do some towing with mine and I wonder how accurate the trans temp gauge is.

 

Since it's reading directly from the PCM/ECM, it's as accurate as the transmission fluid temperature sensor is (bad in, bad out).

 

Are there settings to where you get more performance or better MPH?

 

Sure - they're called custom tunes. Best performance will be the 91+ octane performance tune. Of course this tune should not be used for towing or with 87 octane.

Unless you are extremely informed on Ford's engine/powertrain management system it would be very dangerous to attempt to improve on an experienced custom tuner's settings (such as PHP, VMP, or Troyer).

 

has anyone used them with a pre-97? last time i checked the website, i think all you could do was readjust for tire size

 

I wont really be wanting to use a power setting as much as the MPH
