Edge EZ

[wsurf]

I must plead ignorance. I'm new to this and really enjoy all of the experts out there. But what is an "Edge EZ". From what I read it sounds similar to a performance chip. Any explanation on what it is and how it works would be appreciated.

I am not even close to an expert, but I have been lurking for a couple of years trying to decide which truck to buy.

You are correct.

The Edge EZ is a performance box. They have gotten way to complicated anymore to call them a "chip".

If I'm not mistaken it is a "pressure box", that raises fuel pressure in the common rail and also uses an "elbow" to raise turbo boost.

There are also boxes that modify timing and injector duration to obtain power gains. Edge is supposed to release one of those in a month or so.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

yup. The EZ was introduced with a pressure increase only to get something to market quickly. Their new box (and the diesel dynamics equivalent) will be (in my opinion) a better choice for mild bombing, simply because it does not raise rail pressure. The new box can be "stacked" (put on in addition to) the EZ box to obtain timing, durration AND pressure modifications. That should have performance similar to the current bullydog box which does all three today (and sometimes sets codes from what I hear... )



basically you get performance gains by changing the combusion timing and by adding more fuel. additing fuel can be accomplished by increasing duration (time the injector stays open), or pressure (more fuel per unit time).
