stacking chips questions

I have a 2001 duramax and i have the Edge ez amp on stage 4 stacked with the predator chip. It runs VERY well. Is this a bad combo for the engine?

I do not know anyone that stacks chips on Daxes. There is no need to stack on a Dmax when you run a good chip. There is to much of a change of adding to much timing as stuff like that. If I were you I would sell both of those and get a PPE or EFI live. My choice would be EFI live.

it sounds like there may have been something done to your ECM. Are you sure that you are going to the ON position on the key and not accessory (have to ask...Im sure you are since it worked on your buddy's truck). I know with some trucks you have to pull fuzes....do you have onstar??? I don't know if it was an option on your truck.

So, you were able to put your truck back to stock with the predator? try unpluging the edge (it is the inline box right?) and plug your harnesses back in and try again. I don't know much about the edge ez, but I know that edge juice w/ attitude stacks just fine with the predator.

Personally I am using the TST powermax and diablosport predator and it works pretty good. The TST came with my truck, so I haven't decided to get rid of it.

I know on my prog,ya have to reflash the truck back to stock,before ya can use on another truck,I beleive most tuners today are VIN locked; means ya can not use the same tuner on more than 1 truck at a time,always go back to stock before using a tuner in a diff machine..
