The Evolution CTS3 includes all of the great features, benefits, and extended coverage from the CTS2 product line, all while adding a sleek, new exterior and cutting-edge screen. The best look in the industry delivered via a revamped, slim case design and a 5" full-color capacitive edge-to-edge display with true swipe screen technology. Not only is the display sharper, but the higher resolution screen delivers a tremendous pixel ratio and top-notch graphics. New screen layouts, faster processing speeds, and WiFi update capability are just a few things that set the Evolution CTS3 apart from all other competitors.


The Evolution CTS3 reprograms your vehicle's stock computer through the OBDII port of the vehicle. The Evolution is used to save the stock files from the vehicles computer and then upload the Edge calibrations into the vehicle's computer. This product comes with multiple power levels custom tuned by a whole team of engineers, and can be installed in minutes without ever popping the hood. The Evolution greatly increases horsepower and torque and not only does it re-tune your vehicle, it stays mounted in the cab of the vehicle and features real-time, monitoring of vital engine and vehicle data for a complete gauge package.


If you're looking for a product to improve throttle response, that extra power when towing, race down the track, increase fuel economy, or to just improve the overall driveability of your truck then the Evolution is the option. Not only do you get these increase performance features but you get a monitor that offers a clean simple solution for gauges like EGT (exhaust gas temperature), boost readings, transmission temp, load percent, percentage of fuel left, and more with the expandability to even add more with our EAS (expandable accessory system) or Edge's backup camera.

Average Customer Rating:  4.3 out of 5 stars   (9 Customer Reviews)

Quality product, installs easily. Gave the Colorado a little more HP and torque.

Tuner is working fine. Did have one issue where it gave me an error then went blank. I contacted Edge and talked to a tech. Just needed an update. Now I update the unit about every couple months. No issues since.



by:

Easy plug and play 87 octane tune gives better throttle response and shifts reprogrammed the speed limiter a bigger speed on a Chevy Avalanche and it worked perfectly plug and play install took 10 minutes which was mostly running the cable to the OBD port

Very buggy the unit would have constant crashes just with going through the menus. NEVER TRUSTED IT to actually make a change to my truck.



by:

It works! Seems rather flimsy. To go from screen to screen is pretty complicated. (Although I'm not the most techno Savey person either!) But in the end it did improve my mileage by a solid 3mpg! So that makes it worth having! I have it on an 07 chevy Duramax used for towing, for that it does a good job!

  • Is Angle of Edge Camera License Plate Bracket Adjustable
    The camera kit associated with the Edge part # EP39YR is the license plate camera kit part # EP44YR which does not have a left and right adjustment but can adjust up and down. If you needed to adjust camera to left or right you could use washers to push the bracket out on the one side.

  • Programmer Recommendation for 2013 Chevrolet Silverado 5.3 4x4
    It's hard to say why your old MAF was allowing the truck to run faster. It could have been that the sensor was off and it was causing the engine to run too lean which can damage the engine. It could have been that they flashed the PCM to a newer, safer tune that makes less power while working on it. A lean air to fuel mixture will make great power, but if you go to lean you run the risk of detonation which can cause massive problems. Best option is a programmer like the Edge part # EP39YR...

  • How Does a Edge CTS3 Improve Towing and What Else Will Helps Improve Towing?
    The Edge Gas Evolution CTS3 Performance Tuner # EP39YR helps improve trailer towing by providing your 2010 Chevrolet Colorado with additional power. It will also help to firm up shifts allowing for the clutches to not slip and wear as easily. To help make driving safer when towing I recommend adding a Weight Distribution Hitch # EQ37060ET. This helps to keep your truck level when driving for better steering feel and braking. It also integrates trailer sway control to help keep your trailer...

  • Replacement USB Cable Recommendation for an Edge Evolution Programmer
    I spoke to my contact at Edge and he informed me that they don't offer the cable you are looking for, but all you would need to do is go to an electronics store such as Radio Shack or even Wal Mart and get a miniature usb communication cable.

  • Is Horsepower And Torque Affected By Octane Level Of Fuel When Using Performance Programmers
    I called my contact at Superchips and asked what the breakdown for performance is when using the Flashpaq Performance Tuner, part # SU2845. There are 5 settings you can choose from and they are set for the octane level of the fuel you are using. They said for the lowest level of increase using the 87 octane fuel you could expect and increase of about 33 horsepower and 24 torque increase. They said that is dependent on the engine you have in your truck. You can check the VIN and if the letter...

  • Will Edge CTS3 Programmer Fit 2011 Chevy Silverado with 6.0 and Basic Bolt Ons
    Yes, the Edge CTS3 Programmer part # EP39YR that you referenced would fit and work well on your 2011 Chevy Silverado with a 6.0 liter V8. It also will work with the basic modifications you mentioned as well. As long as you don't go beyond what you mentioned the Edge will work well.

  • Transmission/Oil Cooler Recommendation for 2012 GMC Yukon XL
    I'd recommend a combination transmission/oil cooler like the Derale # D15902. The cooler would mount just behind the grille in front of the radiator. The transmission circuit would tap into the return line from the radiator to the transmission, and the oil circuit would tap in via a sandwich adapter that installs between the oil filter and the filter landing on the engine. The kit includes the cooler, the hoses, the fittings and the sandwich adapter. Also recommended is the # D13035 fitting...

  • Mileage Increase with Edge CTS3 EP39YR Programmer on 2015 GMC Sierra 1500.
    A programmer, such as the Edge CTS3 # EP39YR will give you a slight increase in your 2015 GMC Sierra 1500's mpg. Typically, the mileage improvement is marginal, usually around 1-2 mpg. The actual increase you see will depend on several factors, such as the overall condition of the vehicle's drivetrain, driving style and the environmental conditions in which the vehicle is being operated. There really isn't a product on the market designed to drastically increase a vehicle's mpg. This product...

  • Horsepower Gains for 2014 Chevy Silverado 5.3L with Programmer, Cold Air Intake, and Exhaust Mods
    To determine an exact amount of power gains for a 2014 Chevy Silverado 1500 with the 5.3 liter motor it would have to be placed on a Dyno to calculate its new output. When you add performance products to a vehicle, the gains do not necessarily stack. What I mean is if new exhaust adds 10 horsepower and a programmer adds 20 that doesn't mean that you added 30 horsepower; only that you increased it by up to 30 but its likely less. So we can provide a ball park figure but putting the vehicle...

  • How is Active Fuel Management Turned Off or On with Edge CTS2 Programmers
    On your Edge CTS3 programmer # EP39YR press the home button and scroll down to settings. Once you are in the settings menu, you'll be able to scroll down and see the option for active fuel management. If you don't see this option, you need to update your programmer as this wasn't a feature always supported. But with current updates it was released.

    I checked with Edge and the correct CTS3 Performance Tuner (with 5" screen) for your 2001 Chevy Silverado 2500 with the 6.0L gas engine is the part # EP39YR. The Edge Evolution CTS3 # EP69YR that you referenced is designed for the diesel engine and won't work well on your truck. This tuner will absolutely provide benefit to your Silverado. According to Edge, with this particular engine you can expect gains of up to 21 horsepower and 30 foot pounds of torque. Its integrated Mileage Coach...

    We have many great options for programmers for your 2002 Ford F-150 but Edge Evolution CTS2 part # EP39YR that you referenced. Instead, I recommend the Superchips Dashpaq Performance Tuner - 2.4" Color Screen - Gas - Ford Item # SU1060. It will get you similar gain to an Edge Evolution.

    The Edge Gas Evolution CTS3 Performance Tuner # EP39YR will give you some more towing power for your 2015 Chevy Suburban 1500 4x4 if you have the 5.3L V8, but it is worth noting that the results can vary with conditions.
