It does not have a boost fooler.

What do you mean by, 'where does it go in the truck'? The instruction manual shows where all the connectors are, and gives options for mounting the attitude display. (not trying to be smart, just don't understand your question) If you do not have a manual, you can go to Edge's website, they have PDF downloads there.

I believe that you should have a boost elbow to make better boost with that kit...

It has a boost fooler built in. You just need to hold your wastegate closed somewhat to build the boost. Depending on your turbo, that can be a j-hook or elbow, or just wire it closed and remove the wastegate....

I have a factory turbo . I have the elbow installed that came with my edge attitude the elbow hole was alot smaller than my factory one but i have it on the turbo now.


But i seen a plug in boost fooler that is electronic.
I was just wondering where the connector go because its electronic and it kind of looks like the map sensor connector.

That's what we're dabating now... I do not know if it does, I thought it did not.

Call Edge. They'll tell you.

If it is the edge juice with attitude display it does do boost fooling and yes it connects inline with the map sensor.

Ya know what, that's right, it does. I remember a lot of folks going round and round about if the boost pressure on the monitor was correct since the edge was fooling it.

My bust.

Yes, not hard at all.

Probably the thing most people have a problem with is tapping the pyro. Not hard to do with the right drill bit and tap. You can have it done at most mechanic shops if you are not mechanically inclined.

Installing the pyro is pretty easy if you have the right tap. There are pros and cons either way to drill the hole, but I just had the truck running at idle and drilled away. Pieces are blown out the exhaust, no problem. Make sure you drill in the right spot so you get a good point for the pyro pickup. Honestly, that's the hardest part installing the Edge....

madhat, I was in -211 for about 6 years in Yuma.... It wasn't hell, but I could see it from my backyard....
