I know that when I was looking for a power adder, several guys say that they stack an Edge with the Power Pup. I was wanting to ask what kind of temps you all are seeing with that stack and if anyone has towed with it (as I am sure you have) and how heavy you were loaded. Also what settings were the Pup and Edge on? Any cases of tranny slipping? Thanks in advance for the info. It will help with my decision to add or not to add an Edge!:ro)

When adding additional HP first thing you need to be concerned with is "sustained" EGTs. Most will never recommend towing with over 50 or so additional HP settings in order to avoid a hill climb and a good load so as to keep EGTS in check.Your playing with matches and gasoline here
I have towed with transmission mods and the 125 HP Hot Juice in the EGTS will climb very easily with a light load 5 to 7 K.
The tranny stock can/will slip stacking any programs to exceed the 90/100 HP plateau.

I know several people who have stacked the Edge with the Pup and had good results. The draw back is the transmission.. You will need more trans than stock to handle that type of power. I would suggest going in the other direction first and doing the transmission and then adding power..
Got Juice?

Towing before the Twins on a Full Stack was easily over 1800F!
With the Additional Turbocharger.... I can Tow over my gross WR(not recommended)
at full power.
Mind you, the trans is also done

Kinda what I thought then. I think that I will just get anEdge and play with that solo and see which one I like better. Not too keen on having to beef up my tranny right now. (if it ain't broke I can't afford to fix it) Thanks for the input though. One of these days......):h
