Service manual

Evolution FORD 7.3 Liter

If you have used another tuner/programmer on your truck, you will need to

program your truck back to stock before using the Evolution.

Failure to return to stock may result in PCM failure or engine damage.

Congratulations on purchasing the Evolution by Edge Products, LLC, the leader in truck

performance and power gain technology. The following manual contains information and

instructions on the proper use of the Evolution. Please read carefully before proceeding to

program your vehicle.

Note: Read the product disclaimer and the Getting Connected section before

programming your vehicle.

Note: At the back of this manual, we have included commonly used acronyms. This

should help while using the Evolution.

Note: Please use the following table to note your truck Hex file after you program the

vehicle for the first time (see page 16 for details).

Truck Hex Code

Programming your vehicle may expose existing defects in your vehicle’s

PCM that could disable your vehicle. It is advised that you do not

program your vehicle in remote locations in case of vehicle failure.

About the Evolution

All Edge modules and programmers are built to operate with OEM

calibrations. When you take your vehicle to a service center they may, by

your request or otherwise, update your vehicles calibrations. Therefore it is

important that you return your vehicle to stock before taking it in for

service. Edge updates its active products (i.e. those currently being

manufactured) to work effectively with updated OEM calibrations.

However, this process can take some time as Edge is not always made aware

of calibration changes made by the OEM. In the case of discontinued

products, Edge cannot ensure that your unit will work effectively if you take

your vehicle to a dealership and you are given, by your request or otherwise,

a new calibration. This is only for discontinued products.
