See if you could speak to Andy, I dunno about extra power after a dyno...been using LMS for 2 years on 2 cars now all remote, the one time I put it on a dyno it was spot on vs a car with a dyno tune from 6 months prior.

The only time I can manage a hard shift with my tune is in S mode after using the paddles, otherwise all of the shifts are smooth. 93 aggressive on 93 gas over several thousand miles. Was never harsh until I tried paddles.

Proof, attached.

I went from 21s to 20s which implies I got new wheels too. Tires saved me 6lb per corner, the wheels saved the rest. Look up the lightest 20" for the Edge on tirerack, just over 22lb per corner vs stock 41lb. Tires were 245/45/20 which is a bit out of standard spec, should be 245/50 but that adds 4lb each.

Keep in mind, heavier wheel and tire mean performance loss. I just went from stock 21s to aftermarket 20s and shaved off 96lb! Feels like an extra 50hp with the butt dyno, will test it at the track on Wed. A lot more tire choices in the 20s too.

20" Advanti Catalan DST on 245/45/20 Conti DW

Drove car yesterday, summer tires are softer and more comfy on bumps, the size of the grin when punching it was comparable to that after the tune. German cars were once again the choice to beat on the road. Will try and hit the track on Wed to see real performance, hope to get in the low 13s.

Car currently has 3 out of 4 wheels installed,h ope to drive it tonight. As far as sensor coverage, never tested, been shot and never ticketed. Pretty sure it's sufficient.

In other news, stock 21s setup weighs 72.6lb per corner, replacing it with a 48.6lb setup on summer tires in 20" size at a cost of just over $2300.

2 sensors front grill, 1 above license plate. I should mention the rear won't reach without the extension, I was pretty pissed when my mechanic applied do it and see what happens mentality instead of planning and measuring first.

That website, to me, does not seem credible at all, and lacks any real information for 2017 beyond what is already known for 2015. English clearly not the first language and content is missing, a waste of time in my book.

Keep it in S mode if you never want to be in the wrong gear to have fun again. Gas mileage will suffer, smiles per gallon will climb indefinitely.

I am running the same tune and outran a Jeep SRT...i was more than a little surprised. Welcome to the dark side! I got a group on Facebook which right now is 100% LMS tuned Sports, join the club! Group Name: Ford Edge Sport - Got Boost?

Leave it long enough for them to figure out how to have vehicle to accept any size tires and have accurate speedo, that would be useful.

I was only at the track once so can't brag much. If LMS does update that tune do let us know. I am plotting a 20" drag pack, switching to OEM tires makes me spin crazy in first gear, awd and all. Winter scorpions never spun so obviously in same size.

Corey, thanks for all that testing. Wish I was there but it's a 1200 mile road trip for me which I did run once to make sure LMS was the real deal. Are you running on 20s or 21s?

Turn traction control off, brake torque just a bit, easy half second improvement.

The new number to beat is 13.14, fwd. Mods tune, intake, exhaust, BOV. Identity of driver is top secret till he hits the 12s.

Go to TireRack and compare what everyone else is getting for same tire, lots of info there.

They can go the easy way and simply deny service

Ford will be able to tell that a software change was made which is why it's always good to get a tune from a safe tuner like Livernois. There are 3 LMS tuned Edges at the top now on dragtimes.com

15 here no issues at 2,500 mi

Easy, actually. Comes with instructions but here are the basics. Buy the tuner, plug it into the car port under steering wheel, goes in only one way. Turn power on to car without starting engine and read the codes LMS requires. Send the codes in with the email telling them what tunes u want, 87, 91, 93, towing. Once tune is ready you install their software on your PC, connect tuner to PC with USB and hit update. Wait 10-15, disconnect when done, go back to car, plug it in, accessory power mode and 2-4 clicks to choose what tune you want installed and then u wait for it to finish. Fairly painless and you can try multiple level tunes if you so wish. Or you can call up LMS and have them hold your hand.

Nice, thanks

Are you saying the mirror lights are stock? Mine are not even visible unless you stare at them from bottom up
