That's because if you have not sent the Juice in for service or if you do, they will recalibrate the pyro to read correctly. In my eyes this is a big problem. You running at what you think is 1100 deg and you are actually at 1500 deg. An 04.5 stock will get up to 1300 very easily.

If you are seeing these numbers on "0" then your Juice is doing NOTHING and it is all the doing of the truck.

Your second post was a bit silly when you asked if anyone on here had heard of the Juice with Attitude. You have been posting about your hot running truck for a long time. You should read some of your older posts as a refresher.

my juice has been in for service. received all the "updates" about six months ago. they went through my unit. rarely saw 1100-1150 egts before it was sent in and rarely see those temps now.

i agree- if you are getting those readings on 0 or level 1- it is your truck

Your truck sounds way off to me, I've been running the Edge for a couple years now and haven't had any of the problems your talking about. The Edge either needs to be sent in for reprogramming or something is wrong with your truck, yet I noticed quite a gain in EGT's when I sent my unit in for the "hot unlock". It would be cheaper to sell the edge and buy a smarty, otherwise you'll be spending some serious cash with intercoolers, water/meth, and turbos trying to cool your truck down.

I had to get a mechanical boost controller because of this same issue. I could hit 50+ with the Hot Juice/MP-8 stack on the stock turbo.


There is a reason there are 237 members in the SAC. Bandwagon or not, it does live up to all the hype.
Thanks for the info on the juice. But my ban wagon point is, this guy is asking for help with what he has an not for what he should have! Yall smarty owners are always jumping into someones problem with what could give them another problem! An yes i realize there is 237 members in SAC but im sure there are 3 times as many people on here with something else and half of those 237 people have another box stacked with it!

as for him going another route, how is that going to help if he is seeing these egts with the juice on 0?

sallyman1, i think you are stacking and dont know it. Can you get someones programmer and see if you can program your truck with it? Does your truck black smoke with juice on 0?

my truck YES does blow black smoke with edge on level 0. even before i got my edge (stock) my truck would roll a little bit. Not much but you could see it in mirror. (only when u lay into it of course)

My truck was in dealer a few eeks ago and I got them to scan my ecm and reflash it with all the latest updates and they did. So it cant be stacking or they would of noticed something and told me. plus reflashing ecm would erase that right?

When i pull my 10,000lb 34 foot travel camper at 60 mph in tow/haul (or in overdrive) I can see 1050-1250 EGTS constantly. is this normal with a load like that. If i climb steep grades which theres alot of here in Saskatchewan, then i see about 1450 when i get to the top of the hill and my engine temp is around 215 F by then. Is this normal as well?

also to add as a side note that i bought my edge juice USED on ebay from a guy locally in my province. he stated that it worked good on his truck and that he had a 2004.5 as well. When i recieved it in mail i didnt hook it up to my truck to try it , I immediately sent it in to EDGE in the states for the Turbo Timer and Hot unlock. i also told them to go threw and check harness everything. I actually got a whole brand new harness/edge box/screen from them. Pretty good deal/service i thought i like edge for that. they even sent me 2 pyros already incase it was a bad pyro.

Maybe i should of boughten a brand new edge i dont know??
