Okay the learning curve is getting steeper. Hearing a lot of mixed ideas from reputable sources. Transgo say just having thier shift kit professionally installed will hold anything my edge w/attitude will put out. I called edge and they tell me the Bullydog kit will allow me to run on the #5 setting. Several replies to emails are telling me that I need to do a stage 3 at minimum. Which makes no sense, because people are going to the drag strip with stage 3 kits from suncoast and also pulling sleds. ALL i want to do is be able to run it on the #5 setting and not have to worry if i decide someone should be in my mirror. It has be to a huge difference in the amount of stress the transmission sees when the truck is not pulling a load.
