Default Edge Evolution Torque Converter settings thread

I have been doing a lot of searching on the inter-web and have seen very limited discussion on how to properly adjust the settings for torque converter lock and unlock on the Edge Evolution. I just bought mine yesterday amd after my first go around mixing up some settings on Level 2 I have noticed that by setting the lock on 3rd gear to -4 and the lock on 4th gear to -6, it caused the truck to downshift up large hills where as before this never happened. I also noticed the torque converter dis-engaging much slower than before (causing revs to hang a bit). I have changed lock on 3rd gear to -2 and 4th gear to -4 and also changed unlock on 3rd gear to +2 and unlock on 4th gear to +4. I will report my findings. In theory, lock will happen on acceleration and unlock on deceleration. I need unlock to happen sooner and lock to hold off a little longer.

There has been many people wondering about changing these settings, so hopefully I can provide some direction.

Well after a second tune of putting the lock on 3rd gear to -2 and 4th gear to -4, AND the unlock to +2 on 3rd gear and +4 on 4th gear, the rpm's still hung. I set them all back to zero and all is well. I will try setting the lock to a positive number, most likely +2 on 3rd gear and +4 on 4th gear to see if it stays in a wider power band longer. Probably waisting my time on these settings, but there is little to no discussion on this on the internet. I think to many people are afraid to experiment with the torque converter settings on their Edge.

I will say this, my truck did not like a +75 or even +50 adjustment on idle RPM's. It just kept fluctuating over and over, never holding a steady idle. Set it to zero and it idles smoother now than ever.

Another side note, 100% green and 81% red, no blue and the brightness at 2 from blacking out the screen seem to match the odometer green perfectly.

Okay, I have the rev limiter set at 5500 and 1-2 and 2-3 @ 5200 and 3-4 @ 5100. I will lower them a bit to see if that changes.

I actually hit a 0-60 in 5.96, the Edge rounded up to 6 seconds flat.

I run level 2 with custom settings:
WOT is 1-2 @ 5100, 2-3 @ 5100, 3-4 @ 4600
Rev limiter @ 5500
WOF is at +1.75
Timing @ +.50 (I run 91 Octane)

I do have true dual exhaust, Gotts mod with AEM dryflow filter, tune up of plugs, rebuilt COP's and all filters in the last 3K miles. Also cleaned the throttle body and MAF. My truck is an 07 with the 3.55 gears and Supercrew 2wd.
