Edge EZ or MP8 to stack with BDTD

I'm currently running CL and am looking to stack a pressure box, which would you recommend, the MP8 or the Edge EZ and why?
What's the differences between the 2?
Thanks
Will

It should work throughout the powerband due to the increase in pressure but may shine up top more due to the increase in overall pressure. I love stacking my Quadzilla but it depends on what you want out of the stack... I like the adjustability, upgradability and rail pressure gauge. I also used a powerpuck before and like the Quad much more. The power is more noticable all around but mainly on the top end. MP8 also has a great reputation.

The adrenaline should be very nice or quad x2's may get cheaper due to ppl wanting adrenalines and is just my recommandation due to safe daily driving pressures ive seen, its similar to the EZ but in my mind better due to benefits. I think all pressure boxes are nice as long their safe.

Btw just some rail psi numbers for you. The difference btween pl00(stock) and pl04 on quad my rail pressure at idle changes barely between 6-8000psi, crusing difference will be about 2000psi never exceeding 22000(rarely even 21000) and WOT can peg the gauge at 26000psi-pl04 or 24500psi-pl00

No problems with the Quad? Their rep lately seems not so good, but I'd like to get something with a RP gauge built in as long as it's dependable. Heard lotsa bad things about their FP RP all in one gauge.

Does the XZILLARAIDER 2 just do pressure? I think a pressure only box is what I'm looking for.

Bully dog PMT has rail pressure gauge built right into it and you can still have the crazy larry that I know you love.

Not really interested in the PMT, I like my analog gauges just adding another means a steering column mount etc, not to mention a RP gauge is $300 US, way more by the time I get it up here.

MP-8...most adjustable...and does what it claims. I have it on 2 trucks...for a total of 200k...not one issue. Do mot use it ovewr 50% unless you have a rail gauge and are watching closely.

The Quad sender that is bad is only on the Fuel PSI/Rail PSI guage as i was told by Jeremy at Quad. I have recieved good support this time around(first time i got rid of it due to customer service). So far everything seems good for the guage and i've had it about 2 months.

I would do it again if i had to the gauge has proved to be very useful but i only already have boost so no need for that and with the right harness you can have coolant temp. also. The quad is uploadable so since you have a BDTD you can run the pressure only tunes which has 4 levels which isnt as adjustable as MP8 but i feel is safer for everyday driving. Although the Mp8 does make great power. It really depends on what you want out of it. For me the Quad X2 is more than enough but kinda want to try the Adrenaline. That may suit you better since it gives adjustability and the 2nd gen guys love them.

I feel like a cheerleader now, but im thinking about trying Bullydog again i miss the low end power feature and stacked should feel beastly i never had the chance....

The X2 sounds cool cuz of the gauge but I'd be buying a programmer that does timing, duration and pressure but only using it for pressure, kinda like getting a TST and only using the pressure part of it.

A guy can pick up a used MP8 pretty cheap, the X2's and TST's are a lot more new or used I'm guessing?
(course the built in gauge would offset the price I spose)

How accurate are the built in RP gauges?
