Fuel filter...change it often. My PPE does the same thing at 3000 rpms when the filter has about 8k on it.

I have the Edge in my truck and I like it. It all comes down to what you want.

before you do the PPE,your problem isn't a tuning problem it's a fuel delivery problem so do a set of lift pumps and the PPE fuel rail valve shim kit and you'll have plenty of fuel for the higher levels on the Edge plus your tranny isn't liking all the extra power so plan on a tranny upgrade also but i would go with the PPE just for the fact it's better.thats why they say you pay to play.

I am with everybody else do the PPE and don't look back. Compared to the edge I had it's night and day. I do agree with tyreboyz that it sounds more like a fuel delivery problem than your chip.
