I would like to be able to read the code and find out what is causing it. In the future I will be going with an intake, wicked wheel, MBRP exhaust and a TW chip. But that will not be done for a while.
I have found a couple of options:
1. 2 gauge issapro set (~$250) + AE Scantool (~$340)
Pros: Good guages, scantool can be used on other cars I work on. Allows full diagnostics
Cons: More expensive, no power adders
2. Edge Evolution ($480)
Pros: Does gauges, pulls codes, give some basic power
Cons: from what i hear not the best for power. Digital gauges.
Which do yall think, or is there another option? Something I am missing?

I am guessing that you just bought the truck. If so.....
If you are on a limited budget, and I assume you are because 500 isn't much when it comes to modding a 7.3, and your vehicle is 9 years old, you better save that 500 for things like, ball joints, up-pipes, oil and fuel leaks, brakes, glow plugs and relays etc. etc....
Unless you know all of these things are good, you better save it for those repairs because they will eventually need it and they are all expensive repairs. Just a warning.
