Edge Juice w/Att - What level are you running for what?

[RETODD]

Lots of info out there both good and bad but feedback is much better.

Just installed mine in a TOTALLY stock 07 LBZ.

What do you use the various setting for? I tow a 6500lb travel trailer, 6000lb enclosed sled trailer, burn around the city and take long non-towing trips to he mountains to ski.

Just looking to what everyone else has figured out regarding settings.



Thanks,

Todd.

Ran mine on level 2 and 3 all the time pulling sleds in the mountains level 3 with my fifth wheel level 2. But I had 4 inch exhaust on mine to help keep the EGT's down with AFE stage 2 intake.

Run my dodge on level 3 all the time, except pulling the 28ft sled trailer(when loaded) or the 27ft holiday trailer when i put it to level 2.......... Gets better gas mileage on level 3 than on level 1, which is the "mileage" setting.....rarely use level 4 or 5, or 6(crazy eddy)....

I've only had it in for a week and not problems...so far I've been running on 3 and love the new snap !! Have not had it in long enough to calculate fuel economy changes..good or bad...but man...what a difference!!!

Have a 2002 Duramax with fresh air kit.
Ran my juice at 2 or 3 most of the time for roughly 5 years.
Made good power and a noticeable difference when pulling a loaded sled or travel trailer. Became a problem this spring when it started to eat my Cam Sensors on the truck. Currently disconnected and I miss it.

Mine doesn't have teeth!!! What do you mean by this SB?

Some kind of short in the Juice System. Life goes on.

I agree with Summitric, the level 1 "mileage" mode is not very effective at gaining mileage at all. I have an 04 2500HD Crew Short box GMC with the edge juice/attitude, and I have 4" MBRP downpipe back stainless exhaust, and am wondering what the best bang for buck cold air intake would be, and if it would help with mileage any more (4" exhaust helped a little bit, but helped significantly with lowering EGT's - about 200deg when pulling). I just don't want to spend 300-500 on a Cold Air Intake, and then not have it pay off (plan on keeping the truck for a while). Thoughts?

Yip...thoughts >> Same boat!!...I'm seriously looking at a new intake system but have not finished the research...I'll post on thedieselpalce.com and see what other have experienced. So far I love the Edge and want to do the exhaust but unlike the Edge cannot remove the exhaust for warranty issues and have heard that DPF/CAT delete voids warranty.

First...I installed the cold air intake.... Ran it for 6 Months, Then did the 4" stainless blow pipe...Again over 6 months (Was kind of not sure on the enhancement thing) .... Finally give it the big Banana ! So far all good, I just donot run around with full stroke !

Initial reaction is that I seem to be getting better fuel economy at 3 with a large gain in power...so far so good!!!:d

Hey GB...sorry to hear about your experience...I did a ton of research before I bought the unit and installed it. Yes...there have been issues...some can be directly attributed to the mod folks have done and some to inherent driving styles plus the mod.

My goal here was not to race my truck or kick azz of the line, it was to gain the some of the power the Dmax is hiding...but most of all to reap some economy benefits while doing that...I realize there is risk with any mod one does...thanks for your feedback...Todd.

If your 04 is an LLY.

The stock LLY mouthpiece is a known "weak link" in the air induction system. It is under sized and restrictive to such a degree that it causes turbulence directly in front of the turbo impeller. Turbulent flow = loss of efficiency. This loss of efficiency is at it's worst during high load situations that require a large amount of airflow to the turbo. The problem is compounded even further when increased performance is desired via a tuner/programmer. Adding boost pressure over stock requires more airflow through the mouthpiece, which makes the effect of the turbulence greater, causing it to impact efficiency even more.
Replacing the mouthpiece with a larger and less restrictive version will correct this shortcoming, giving you back the lost efficiency of your turbo.

Dieselplace.com has lots of info.
