Can a Superchips programmer be added to a truck that has an Edge Comp box installed? I have a buddy with a 99 5 speed, comp box, 120 horse injectors, adn a water/meth kit and wants a little more. I did not know if we could hook my programmer to his truck and run them both at the same time or not. Anyone tried this?



Thanks
 
dont do it... .



they both add timing, you might get away with it on a SO(which its what yours should be) on an HO just asking for trouble

The thing about power adders is, they don't add up, 2+2<>4. Why not? Because you can't get power twice from the same place. If you have a device, like a Comp, that gives you the maximum power increase from timing advance, adding another device that advances timing doesn't help (could hurt) because the power gain from timing advance has already been used. Adding fuel via wire tap or injectors encounters similar overlap.



You say your friend want a "little more" power, how much is a little more? If I'm running a stock truck at 200 HP and add 50HP, that's a substantial 25% increase. If I'm running a highly modified 500 HP truck and add 50 HP, that's only a 10% gain, not so impressive. I think you friend is up against the old equasion of more fuel + more air = more HP. He's done all the "easy" stuff. Now it's up to bigger injectors and bigger turbo and all the requirements of all that pressure. Drivability and economy go to heck, but what does he really want?
 
yup got a superchips available is the only reason, i wanna do an ez stack eventually, but i wanna see what the chips will do. thanks!
