Vigilante or Edge

Looking for a 2600 stall 9.5 unit. I can get the Edge for 525.00 and the Vig for $699.00 Pro's cons? What do you guys think?

I'll go Vigi hands down.

I run two of them on my own cars and have a friend running a third.

They are proven and they work.

Edge, custom built to your car's specs not some off the shelf one-size-fits-all converter.

I ended up ordering the Edge. After talking to both companies it seemed Edge had more of an idea what was going on. Time will tell. Should be here next week,
