Who here has had a edge PYRO fail?

Tommorrow my truck is going into dealer regarding air to air leaks and turbo .


I heard one guy replace his edge pyro 3 times with brand new ones before he got one that worked. Edge I think sent me one in the mail so ill hook it up when it comes regarding my HIGH EGT and low boost.

Mine went bad in a few months. I called them and they sent a new one. I have since went thru one more with my analog guages but they were used so no telling how long it held on. I just keep one around for when one goes bad.

The tip broke off of mine and took out my stock turbo at 30psi. It was ugly.

You just call edge and they send you a new themocouple free? I think mine might be bad as it don't read high enough.

The 04.5 truck should not have a line to crimp?????


I have said this before and I will say it again. 1400 deg is not uncommon if you stab it.

I suppose he's crimping the hose between the actuator and the solenoid.
