Finally, some Juice with Attitude
Tuesday, May 27th, 2008
Edge Products changed the whole diesel performance market with the release of the
Edge Juice about 3-4 years ago. Before the Juice, Diesel owners were limited to the Superchips Microtuner, a programmer that was introduced during the Civil War(in all fairness, the Microtuner is still a good programmer). The Edge, when combined with the Attitude Monitor is still probably the best combination for Diesel owners.
The Juice itself is relatively easy to install. I mounted mine on my drivers side battery. The Attitude Monitor is where some of the trickiness comes in, mainly with the EGT Probe installation. However, if you offer free beer to a couple of buddies you can whip out the rest of the Attitude Monitor installation in just a few hours. The Installation is well worth the effort. Sure, there are faster ways of adding mass power and performance to your vehicle but nothing monitors your vehicles safety like the Juice and Attitude combination.
If you throw Edge a few more dollars they will even give you an unlock code to release even more performance with the “hot” mode. The Hot mode does not really give you more power, but it does keep the maximum power consistent through the RPM band. I would only recommend the Hot mode for racing.
If you are wondering about which chip to get for your Diesel pickup, I highly recommend the Juice. The Juice is great for Towing, Racing, Cruising and even Fuel Economy.

I do love to weak and tune everything I have (not just cars), but I have to confess, I’m a total layman when it comes to tuning. Sure, I know what EGT is, and I know where the pistons are, and why cool air helps your performance and so on, but I have no clue if you go really deep down, especially in the electronics area.
