| You will be fine with the edge juice/attitude. the predator is pretty good, but if you want to run any higher than the 40 hp tune you will have to get an egt guage. You can tow with almost any chip out there as long as you don't go higher than a 60 hp tune and take it easy. I have towed 8000 lbs with a 45 hp tune and had no problems.

| There are alot of good tuners out there i dont know a whole lot about the lb7 tuners but the edge w/attitude is alomst alwaysa good choice for just the guy who want more towing power and something to kill a mustang when out on a sat night  , ppe makes some awesome downloaders as well as tst but you will need gauges with these!

| I would suggest the van Aaken SmartBox E Standard Box. They just released a digital gauge to go along with it that controls the box also. It is a great product and yo can get them at a good price. |
