Am I safe to run Edge Ez on #3 for Daily Driving?

***stampedediesel*** · 11-07-2009, 10:25 AM

I know this has probably been beat to death, But a quick answer would be greatly appreciated.
I have an 06 CRD with the G56. Cat delete, K&n filter and ATS arc flow air ram.
I am not a hot rodder but want a little more goose. I have been running #2 except while towing.
Are there any adverse effect running #3 to any parts(ie Lift pump, Fuel rail, Injectors)?
Thanks so much, and yes I know that Smarty is the answer, just keeping what I have for now.

I am a pretty easy driver. I shift at 2600 religiously. Every once in a while I shift a little higher. Is that what you meant? I know some guys that drive hard shift at 3k all the time.

Just don't expect your injectors to last as long with the ez up all the time. personally I would get something different that changes timing, fueling rather then pressure. As long as the fuel is clean you should be ok for awhile. If you don't have better filtration I would get it before I turn the ez on at all.

I agree with ^^^^^^. For daily driving level 1, maybe 2. But NOT 3. Too much pressure has been a known cause of cracked injectors. Play on level 3 but DD on 1 or 2.

Edge recommends level 2 or lower for daily driving. Level 1 for heavy towing.

Agreed, I would not DD on level3. Your injectors will hate you for it.
