80-90 hp, and its not that it will break but rather the clutches will slip.

if you lost that crappy edge programmer and went with EFI Live and got a true 100hp tune it would feel a lot faster with minimal additional risk. The 4-5 shift is the shift that in most all cases limp the 1-2,2-3,3-4 at 100 extra rwhp are generally problem free.

you could shop around on the forums people often sell used EFI Lives, also look for the V1 I have the V1 and wouldn't upgrade at all no need.

Yeah plenty of OLD FELLERS use the V-1:joker:

Cant he just find someone nearby with efi, then just buy the $100 license? You just wouldnt be able to swap tunes as easily.

I know a guy that is in your area

Had edge on my truck for about 3 months of running around town, never dragged on a track. Typically ran on 4. After 3 months, clutches were black.
