Need help with performance chip

[BakerEdition]

Matt, Thats what I have been averaging...no keep in mind I also am a very easy driver with it as well...no rabbit starts...I have my Edge set for level 3 performance and have made adjustments to the timing and a few other items through the edge....I use 93 octane gas...cost about 9.00 more per tank but I go a extra 50 to 65 miles...so if you do the math...the 9.00 is worth it. I get between 22 and 23 highway with the cruise set at 75 mph....I have ordered a adjustable fuel regulator to increase my fuel pressure...yes the computer will adjust for it during regular driving, but when I hit the throttle it will give me the extra pressure and fuel it will need to perform even better...I want to change out my exhaust but almost am afraid to because of the fuel mileage...When I got this thing I would only get 35 to 40 miles to the first 1/4 tank being full...now just as of today, we drove into Nashville and had dinner at Jimmy Buffets restaurant and I got 115 miles to the that 1/4...so it does work...don't know what else I can tell you...ask if you have anything else.

SO I have a question does the edge programmer have the option built into it to run dual exhaust/Headers? ive been told that I need to reprogram my computer once I putthem on to take advantage of them. So im thinking of having a custom tune done by a local shop, that way they aren't using "generic" setting. but if the edge programmer can do it I may pick one up

I got the CS and I'm still trying to find the best settings for fuel economy, because I really haven't seen any improvement. I have it set on level 2 and I changed the shift firmness to 15% but that is about all I've messed with.

No option that I am aware of....you may want to call Mark Haywood at Edge products and ask directly....the only thing i see wrong with a custom tune is your stuck with it....you cant change anything or tweak anything...the edge allows you to adjust different parameters.

Let me know if you want some help with this...mine has already paid for itself in fuel savings and really jumped my performance...you can but that shift firmness up to 25% and will no problem....Let me know what year you have and I can provide you the setting mine is using...
