What feedback do you want?
Why are you interested in the edge? Know somebody there or getting a good deal on one?
Jake's Performance
PTC
FTI
All make great converters and have options from budget line stuff for $300 or $350 up to billet super wicked crazy fast stuff for $1000+
I don't see edge being any better priced...but I do see them as having less track record and less proven setups than the previously named group.
So...why not go with one of those 3...just curious

Define a great deal? Is it used? Is it new?
I don't see any info listed on your original post...is this a th400, a glide, a 4l60e, 4l80e, 6l80e? What trans?
How much power, what vehicle, what gear ratio, tire size, etc
The converter is like the camshaft. It needs to work best for the whole combo.
Edge doesn't have the track record. You're not going to find as much feedback because they don't have as much quality experience as the others I've listed.
and just for clarity...I don't work for any of them, I don't get any kickbacks, etc...I have purchased parts and converters from all 3 for my customers and myself. All 3 have been great to work with and have great products. That's the only reason I recommend them.

Part of the forum is recommending whatever would be best for people...but if we have to give the simplest answers we can...then I will ditto your response.
"I've never used one so I can't speak for them"
Aside from a brand name you need a converter for your application. Being that it's a good deal usually means it's used (bad idea) and not likely for a turbo mustang with an ls engine.

Verdad Gallardo The converter is new, and was designed for a 408 ls with nitrous. edge offer 3 free restalls so I was planning on having it changed to my combo. Basically a friend bought it and sold the car so I can get it for essentially half price. The mustang weighs 3000lbs with a th400 and 3.55 gears. Power should be right at 1000 bhp. Because of the power I dont want to run a cheaper $350 converter.
Balloon plate, billet cover, tig welded fins, furnace brazed internals, hardened input splines, and a mechanical diode in place of the sprag(or spragless) with that power.
