If you're looking for an all in one gauge unit with aftermarket programming, then we offer the Edge CTS and Edge CS (re-branded as a Gryphon) and offer our own programming for them. We can do mild HP programs that are suited well to towing as well as daily driving programs that add 65-80 HP when you need it.

The programming is $25 per tune for a stock truck. We no longer offer alternate standard tunes unfortunately.

To check for a chip, simply pull the PCM out and inspect the rear of the PCM. There should either be a hole and a flat edge of a circuit board showing or there will be a black plastic cover about 1" x 2.75" . If there is an open hole with no chip protruding or there is a cover over the hole in the PCM, you don't have a chip.

Not to say that the truck hasn't been reflashed, but there is no chip in it. You CANNOT use a flash programmer such as the CTS/CS with a chip installed without ruining the PCM.....so make SURE that there isn't a chip connected to the PCM.

Here is a picture of the PCM case by the parking brake assembly. You will need a 7mm socket to pull the case bracket off and a 10mm socket to pull the PCM connector off.

Here are some instructions for you:
