Level one is Transmission only, level two is for towing and level three is performance. Level three is where the transmission shudders. Level two will still bring a big smile on your face. Troyer's custom tunes are better than Edge's canned tunes that's the reason I'm going to upgrade and I haven't heard of any issues with any of his products.
It all depends on how much you want to spend. Edge is a cheaper route and it's a great tuner, but it's not the same as what you'll get with custom tunes.

Well boys, the Timing option popped up as available this time, so I must have taken a wrong turn somewhere. With the Airaid, Volant 3" SS exhaust and premium fuel, I bumped the timing up 2 degrees and it seems happy so far. Seat of the pants dyno says WOW. I paid $379 delivered for mine, so no current complaints here, with exception of the transmission shudder in stage 3. Does anyone fear this vibration could actually be or cause a REAL problem?

It could, I don't know for sure but it can't be all that good. That's the reason why I'm running level two.

c i didnt know about what stage was what but ive heard that somewhere

how is the stage increase form stock, to 1 1-2 and if you had from 2-3?
how much of a wow would say?

I have not tried level 1, level two alone will make you happy, it gave me a smile from ear to ear. Level three is even a little better than two. I would be running it all the time if not for the shudder issue.
Before I bought the Edge I bought a Hypertech III for my truck. All I can say about the Hypertech is it was a big waste of my money. I paid 285 for it and sold it shortly after on ebay for 200. Luckily I found a used Edge to offset my loss. Level two alone is well worth the expense and you may not even have a shudder issue with level three like some do. I would have to guess that it must be a small margin of us that do experience it or they would already have a fix.

Ty

so the edge is pretty much the best tuner out there?

For the money and if your not going to go heavy on mods it's not a bad tuner at all. If you want every possible bit of power then you should look into a custom tuned tuner.

Hey sorry I haven't had a chance to get a shipping quote for you yet. Been a little busy the last few days. The wife through her back out on thursday so we were at the hospital until midnight and that's not the best time to try to get a prescription filled. Sucks to get old I gotta go back to work tomorrow so I'll have to go to the post office on thursday or friday.
