I am all of the sudden getting black smoke, and no power from take off. Bone stock 2500HD 14,000 miles, except, K&N, and edge/***. This is happening on level 1. Also what are all of you running for the best fuel economy, for everyday driving. And one more thing I changed the oil and filters (fuel and oil) yesterday, and this happend about 80 miles later. All you Dmax owerners are a great help. Thanks to all ahead of time:ro)

Back the edge down to stock and maybe even better, unplug it and put the connectors back to stock and see if it still does it.

I had same problem, but I had stage 2 tube popping out of the rubber boot. Happened twice and finally put stock tube back on. When this happened, straight air was being sucked in turbo because the tube separated 1/2 inch. No MAF signal and fuel mix goes haywire. Stock tube stays intact. I think the tube on the AFE stage 2 I have isnt bent right.
Other than that i run level 2 on a regular basis and turn propane on for fun.

i second removing the edge to see if it still has the issues. after reading all the issues with the edge that owners were having. i would do that first.

Check all of the boots on the turbo and make sure they are tight. (IE: the rubber thingys coming off the turbo.) Also...if the fuel filter was changed make sure they didn't knock the air tube coming from the air box loose.....that would give you a similar problem as what hotrent1 described.
