I don't have a custom tune but I can tell you that not one person on this site with one would ever, ever condone anyone getting a hand held rather than a tune. Be sure to get a spare ECM and TCM and have the tune placed on those so you can swap back should you need to make a dealer visit. Blackbear performance seems to be the going favorite around here.

thanks for the replys i am in the autoparts biss.and getting ecms should not be to hard to get. but will i notice a big diff. i did notice a diff from the edge programer but i want more i still have to much torque mang. i would like to have less can i get that from a custume tune thanks.seems like truck lags out of hole.

Yes, you will notice a huge difference. You can have the torque management removed and will see much better response from your truck, especially with that 6 liter.

Custom Tune > Edge

 

Nuff said.

So is there any reason you can't use both (custom tune + the edge pod)? I kinda like the look of the Edge...I don't want to f-up my computer by trying to put in conflicting tuners...

I'm pretty sure Edge sells just the pod and gauges without the tunes installed. (Or maybe it was Summit selling their branded version of the Edge.) You wouldn't want to install a canned tune over your custom tune, thet would be like taking a step backwards! And you sure wouldn't want to pay for an Edge with the tunes when just the pod with gauges would probably be half the price!
