Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Which box???

[dieseldon02]

O. K. , time for me to buy a box, and was wondering which one would be the best? Edge comp, Bully Dog,.....

I use the truck as a daily driver, and pull a 26' race car trailer on the weekends. Trailer weights in at 10,000lbs.

I have gauges, and a Summit 4" exhaust with the muffler. (still trying to get my wife into the idea of stacks}. Also have a BHAF.

Any help or info would help. Thanks, Don

Can of worms you've opened. But, my $. 02, I like my Edge Comp for the variety of adjustability, in all 25 different settings. I usually use only 3, 1-5 for day to day, 3-4 to play a bit and raise a bit of smoke :-laf and 5-3 or 4 to "Kill" - just have to watch those EGTs. I don't tow anything, ever. Other folks have the Edge Comp and tow I'm sure someone else will respond soon.



Happy Bombing

I have the Edge-Comp and just bought a Smarty Running them together gives an enormous amout of flexability for me. I can run the Edge by itself or load the ECM up with Smarty # 8 and the Edge or just use the Smarty.



I have been to 23,000 lbs with the Edge. I have 163,000 + and still have my original clutch. Driving style is the big saver for me. But we do have fun at times

Man I would go with the Smarty and the TST stacked. This combo rocks!!!!

Smarty??? Who makes it? Where can I get one? Also, is this adjustable like the Comp?

I run a comp box and tow a heavy 5er. my vote is comp box!!

It makes killer power at will

I have the Edge Drag Comp and love it. I have drove a 00' with a TST and it ran good but my Edge had alot more low end power and snap.



I have heard good things about the catcher and tst or edge combo. I guess it all depends on how much $$ you want to spend.

Smarty is a device that downloads modified ECM software. It is an evolution of a product called "Catcher".



Spend some time reading here all about it.

I have a vote for the Comp. Adjustability is great especially when towing versus blowing away rice rockets
