No, thank you all for your help. I appreciate the input. Well, if the only difference between a CS and the Gryphon is the screen then I guess I'll stick with the std. Gryphon for now...... Eventually, I will end up with the CS though once they get the AVMPG figured out. Gotta have the bling! Mines pretty accurate though. I remember speaking with EDGE and them telling me they were getting rid of it. I was like why?? Mine works fine. Besides.....if I had the CS and put on any type of background you know my g/f will start asking why I don't have a picture of us for the background. maybe I'll just stick with the Gryphon after all. I'm going to stick with the stock coils, but at 60,000 miles I'm going to have to switch to NGK Iridiums. I'm anal, stubborn, and stuck in my ways I'm not that old though .......I'm only 27 lol maybe thats why I'm not married! My idle is stock. That was one of the first things I thought to try when I first got my EVO was turn down the idle. Well, you can't. You can only turn it up. I adjusted my shift points and TC Lockout points to the max(s) a few months back when I finally read the online manual for the Gryphon!! PHP should be writing the user manuals for EDGE b/c I don't think they even touch on half the stuff you can do with the EVO and it's pretty vague! I'm an inquisitive little gear head aren't I?? As far as adjusting the gearing I've got 3.55 in it which is stock and actually went with bigger tires to drop the RPM's at Hwy Cruising speed 65-70. Running 33" tires don't really want to go bigger to drop the RPMs any further b/c 35" tires are EXPENSIVE. Then again lowering the gearing would probably bring 4th into play a lot sooner. The only times I feel it shift into 4th is when I'm passing someone at about 80 Mph. I need to switch one of my PID to the Gear indicator and see whether or not I'm even using 4th. If I'm not then lower gearing would definatley help by bringing the taller gears into play a lot sooner! Any other thoughts??? I'm all ears!
