my buddy has a 05 2500 and currently has a mbrp 4" tb exhaust and a edge juice/w att and is very dissapointed with the mileage he is getting. is there a better tuner/chip out there to squeeze some more mileage outta it? thanks in advance
Hmm I actually heard thay the edge gets some good mileage gains! I heard some dont make a difference. I know that my PPE gets me a decent 2MPG gain.
Is your buddy getting any mpg gains from his edge? What kind of mileage is he getting?

PPE or Quadzilla Stealth 2 will help with mileage compared to stock, but there are alot of things that affect mileage.
Does the guy have a lift and big tires? We had a Dmax in here last month with 37" tires for a Stg IV Suncoast kit, and while we were at it he had us do a gear swap. Swapped the 3.73s for 4.56 and he picked up about 4 mpg.
Does he drive like a racer everywhere? That sure will kill mileage
Tires inflated properly?

The best two we have found are PPE and Quadzilla. Gains are different for each truck as there are a ton of variables that play a role. If he drives like a mad man, he will lose mileage. In order to gain better mileage, you need to drive accordingly.
i just got my ppe in the mail today, going to install afete work, hope to see a gain

I had PPE hot +2 and now have EFILive. It was the best move I made in terms of MPG. I just went on a 410 mile trip and got 23.3 MPG according to my DIC. The hand calculated amount will be above 20 MPG because I have 1/8 of a tank left with 410 miles on it so far.
