I bought mine about a month ago... it was super easy to install and looks great. I set it on the lvl 2 (towing) and saw a 1.5-2 mpg improvement. I just did a quick trip up to the DC area and saw that I was getting an AMPG of 20. I bought is mainly to improve my fuel economy. For me, the performance was the side effect I have noticed a definite improvement in the "get up". I have not tested the performance setting... but will shortly. I did the math on it and decided it would pay for itself in roughly 6 months... I would say it is worth the price. I bought mine from autoanything.com... they had free next day shipping and a $25 MIR... they were also the cheapest place I found. let me know if you have anymore questions... I would be glad to answer them.

it serves a better purpose if you use it as skeet. Get an SCT tuner.

cheap and nifty doesnt mean quality programming. SCT custom tunes are actually written from scratch, anything that comes from Edge is nothing more than a file hack.

Default my 2 cents

heard way to many good things about sct that even if it cost more it is worth it..... do some google searches for tranny issues with edge... i have heard of them even on this forum.... you get what you pay for... seriously... not trying to bum you out for your purchase but you gotta ask questions and then be smart enought to decipher the truth from bull**** and then make an educated decision... i had a chance to buy an edge locally for 100 bucks....said no way...

well, if i were to get an sct it would be the live wire but i dont forsee it because i live in california and its not legal here. not only am i not supposed to use it (which i would) but im not even able to legaly buy it here. the edge evolution is legal here but is only supposed to be for off highway use
