Man made us suffer through that start up with you 🤦🏽♂️ lol thanks for the nice review, convinced me to make the upgrade myself as well. Hated that touch screen with a passion.
I seen with your CTS2 you had the pillar mount which is what I have on mine. Did the CTS3 attach to the same mount or did you have to get a different one.
A shop offered me this product and that it’s emissions compliant… I’m guessing they aren’t going to remove parts from underneath the truck? Is it worth getting it if they aren’t going to give my truck a weight reduction as well? I talked to them in person and undirectly made it clear what I wanted
I have the original edge insight cts on my powerstroke and was going to get another one for my explorer sport. I ended up using my phone by getting a Bluetooth adapter and the torque pro app. Does everything I need it to for about $30.
I have a 2017 6.7 that was previously tuned with the weight reduction already done. I just ordered the edge evolution. Will this throw my truck into limp mode because of the weight reduction?
I just installed this cts3. I drive a 08 ram 2500 6.7. I have noticed the bost does not work if you have efi live. The only other bad is it has froze up on me twice while driving and since there is not power button i had to pull over and unplug. Besides that it is very nice and easy to read.
I've noticed the mpg being severely off with the efi live tunes on a 07 with the 5.9 on the edge Must be something with the tunes. Always showing me getting like 30 to 40 mpg. Makes you feel good even though you know it's wayy off
40mpg?? Can I get your tuner’s name? 😂. Yeah the instant MPG thing on the edge isn’t very accurate. Heck neither is the overhead on the truck! I typically go off engine load. 20-30% load is the sweet spot for good MPG.
@@JustDiesels Anarchy level 2 tunes and CTS 2 and you'll be getting 40 mpg EASY! 🤣 But hey Thanks for the info I'll have to set that parameter instead of the MPG one
Bummer about the efi live issues. Safe to assume it won’t control a csp5 then? What alternatives are there for guys that have efi live and want to have external monitors for a 2008 2500?
You mean a front camera only? I did it on my OBS/Cts2. Doesn't matter where the camera is, just have to wire the lead into the "Drive" instead of the "Reverse lights".
I bought the Cts2 right before they came out with the 3. Pissed the Edge sales guy didn't mention that it was coming out. Also, we all know the MPG isn't accurate at all...makes me wonder if all the other features are accurate?
I do not. I kinda put that in a separate category since EZ is more about the tuning than the gauges. My Insight is strictly a gauge system with no tuning.
I have a cts2 with all kinds of probes and add ons like turbo timer, etc. Can I keep all of those when/if I upgrade to a cts3? Or do I need to get all new ones?
@@JustDiesels Cool thank you! Also, you wouldn't happen to know if new trucks have an EGT probe already installed or is that something that is an aftermarket installation no matter what?
Does this have the option to have toggle buttons/switches? For example if I were to be running a nitrous setup would I be able to have a switch to toggle the power and a push+hold button to toggle the purge solenoid and whatnot?
My dad has a 2000 dodge ram 3500. It makes more power than stock even though it doesn't have a tuner on it. We are thinking it has had the ECM flashed to make more power. I dunno. My dad's truck is a oddball truck
I have a edge insight cs2. I’m wanting to get the new cts3 or 2. Is it just plug and play? Can i just buy the monitor for it and use all the same cords?
Is that the srt-10 pillar mount? Bought one for my 2006 cummins and the pillar mount from edge but it doesn’t fit properly Did you hough to trim yours or am I just doing something wrong?
@@JustDiesels Thank you I figured it out after I sent this comment. It looks amazing and a much cleaner look then all those glow shift gauges I had in the truck
This is a gauge only setup. They also make a tuner with the same display and gauge capability, but that’s not what I installed. I’m running EFI live for tuning instead.
Still running the BD X monitor I installed in ram 2004, then moved to my new mega cab in 06. Boost, egt and trans temp. Coupled with my quadzilla rail and fuel pressure combo gauge. I used to run the edge juice w. Attitude but that thing was clumsy. Maybe someday I’ll go with the CTS. Would be nice if I could combine that with a good stereo head unit maybe a split screen like my bmw 328D.
Does the cts3 come with the 3 pre loaded tunes for the vehicle where you can actually tune? I want to use the performance tune that comes with the cts2 but would upgrade to this if it had them.
The user interface on the Edge is so much better. Edge really stepped it up to make an awesome visual layout. Everything else on the market is pretty basic.
Let’s say I wanna do an Egr delete, I was really interested in the CTS2 Evolution since it already came with tunes. Would the CTS3 do a regen and allow me to do so without throwing my truck into limp mode? If not, would it allow me to use an EFI live tune and monitor everything semi-accurately?
My CTS2 is not only slow but now the tab up top you use to change power levels wont open. It beeps when i touch it but it never opens. Its fully updated. Anyone have any ideas?
@@JustDiesels I've been looking at the CTS3. It looks very nice and way improved. I seen a couple different versions of it but couldn't quite tell what the difference was. If you have a second could you help me know what the difference is? I've done a lot of reading on it and can't find what the difference is between the different CTS3 models.
The Backup camera is no longer an RCA plug. At the time of writing this, Edge says they have a solution coming. The other connector is unchanged from the CTS2 so it's plug and play. Since my back up camera goes to the head unit on my truck, all I had to do was plug in the Insight and set up the parameters for my external gauges on the new unit.
It has no tuning capabilities, but it will change the power on demand setting for the smarty JR (which is just a APPS sensor adjustment within the existing tune.) It doesn't actually load a new tune.
I got the cts3 for my 06 with the egt probe and it auto detected the probe. It works ok initial setup will take a hour plus to set parameters for each gauge.
Yeah I’ve got EGT, fuel pressure before the Cp3, and trans temp off the pan. I had already set all that up on my CTS2 so the 3 was just plug in and go!
@Just Diesels my Cummins is deleted and tuned but don't know what tune it has since I fairly new to the diesel my question is can I still run cts 3 whit my truck?
If you’re talking dodge it’s because there’s no oil pressure sensor. The gauge you see on the dash is dummy gauge based on temperature. There’s only an oil pressure switch
Awwww man!!! You dissing "Gale Banks" the king of diesel now.... Just kidding bro lol, good review , I get it.... I wounder if you can get cts3 and bank's idash??
It depends on the tuner! For example mine can control the power level on my smarty jr within a tune, and I think they’re compatible with a few others as well.

Picked one up when they came out to replace my CTS2 that I sold for $300...stoked that I did! Worth every penny!
This is great info. I appreciate the effort you’re putting into creating quality content.
Thank you!
Another great episode!! I have a CTS2 and you're right, it takes FOREVER to start making it useless as a backup camera.......might be time to upgrade!
Be wary though, the cts3 requires a $100 cable to make your rca camera work
@@sasquatchfirearms427 True but I bought a regular RCA cable and camera and it works fine, it's just slow to start up.
I have been waiting for this detailed and educational video. Excellent and Thank u!!
Happy to help!
Yea agree the others on this are
old guys giving to much of an in depth review. This sold me on a CTS3
Did you put a CTS3 on your 7.3? Any videos of the cts3 in that truck, how you mounted it, what parameters it covers ect?
What brand is your aftermarket radio? Do you have a video on that?
Man I feel old. I had the OG CTS on my old duramax and prior to that I had DiPricol pillar gauges on my VP44 truck.
Killer video Andrew, keep up the good work!
That was awesome. I just bought a 06 RAM Diesel and it has a CTS, PROBABLY 10 years old, definitely going to upgrade to the CTS3
Man made us suffer through that start up with you 🤦🏽♂️ lol thanks for the nice review, convinced me to make the upgrade myself as well. Hated that touch screen with a passion.
Awesome video dude! Hang on to that Kreft shirt because it’s a collectors item now
Man I've been looking at these, this is a huge help!
I seen with your CTS2 you had the pillar mount which is what I have on mine. Did the CTS3 attach to the same mount or did you have to get a different one.
Same exact mount actually.
Man debating to pull the trigger on the cts3 for my 2022 F250. Can you tell me if it removes the speed limiter?
A shop offered me this product and that it’s emissions compliant… I’m guessing they aren’t going to remove parts from underneath the truck? Is it worth getting it if they aren’t going to give my truck a weight reduction as well? I talked to them in person and undirectly made it clear what I wanted
This product has no relation to tuning or emissions. It’s simply a digital gauge system to show you what’s going on in the engine!
Do a video on your stereo, what’s the setup?
I already have it up! Go check it out on my channel!
Answered all my questions man! 👍🏼
Glad I could help!
I have the original edge insight cts on my powerstroke and was going to get another one for my explorer sport. I ended up using my phone by getting a Bluetooth adapter and the torque pro app. Does everything I need it to for about $30.
andrew what head unit is that in your truck? is that a 10"?
Can you remove the CTS3 easily and put it in your glovebox for overnights in sketchy areas?
Yeah it just unplugs!
What radio do you have??
I have a 2017 6.7 that was previously tuned with the weight reduction already done. I just ordered the edge evolution. Will this throw my truck into limp mode because of the weight reduction?
If your truck has lost exhaust parts, you need a different tuner. That said, the Edge Insight CTS3 is a great way to have gauges!
Is the CTS3 comparable with 2nd gen OBDII trucks? I couldn’t find a 2nd gen specific model on the Edge site.
Yep! Completely compatible to read everything the engine reads.
Brother if you can, do a review on the Race me Ultra tuner or the MM3! Good content.
I just installed this cts3. I drive a 08 ram 2500 6.7. I have noticed the bost does not work if you have efi live. The only other bad is it has froze up on me twice while driving and since there is not power button i had to pull over and unplug. Besides that it is very nice and easy to read.
Upgraded from the original little grey edge juice with attitude.

What alternatives are there for guys that have efi live and want to have external monitors for a 2008 2500?
@just diesels- have you tried doing a comparison between this and the smart touch? I’m on the fence between both,
This is definitely going to be better.
I was confused when you started swiping the CTS2. I had no clue that it even had a swipe feature 😂
Yeah that's how bad that screen was haha
Thanks for the review looks like a great product, you said it has rear camera compatibility can that be altered to include a front camera instead?
I imagine you can make that work, but I’ve never tried it!
You mean a front camera only? I did it on my OBS/Cts2. Doesn't matter where the camera is, just have to wire the lead into the "Drive" instead of the "Reverse lights".
Hey what kind of stero is that in your truck
I bought the Cts2 right before they came out with the 3. Pissed the Edge sales guy didn't mention that it was coming out. Also, we all know the MPG isn't accurate at all...makes me wonder if all the other features are accurate?
Other features are off the truck’s computer and built in sensors, so yes they’re accurate.
Which pillar pod mount are you using in your truck and where can I get one?
The mount is from Edge, and the pillar is the OEM Mopar pillar sold on the Geno’s Garage website!
Have you had any experience with the gauge setups from EZLynk? If so how do you think it compares to the edge?
I do not. I kinda put that in a separate category since EZ is more about the tuning than the gauges. My Insight is strictly a gauge system with no tuning.
But you can get tunes added on!!!
I have a cts2 with all kinds of probes and add ons like turbo timer, etc. Can I keep all of those when/if I upgrade to a cts3? Or do I need to get all new ones?
Yep! Everything just fires right up on the new display. I have the exact same thing.
Does this gauge tell when the truck DPF is in regen?
It depends on the truck, but on most yes. Basically if your truck’s computer reads dpf regen, this shows it to you.
@@JustDiesels Cool thank you! Also, you wouldn't happen to know if new trucks have an EGT probe already installed or is that something that is an aftermarket installation no matter what?
Does this work on international truck?
Does this have the option to have toggle buttons/switches? For example if I were to be running a nitrous setup would I be able to have a switch to toggle the power and a push+hold button to toggle the purge solenoid and whatnot?
It does actually, but they’re all digital switches.

What is that ipad looking thing coming out of your radio spot?
I have a edge insight cs2. I’m wanting to get the new cts3 or 2. Is it just plug and play? Can i just buy the monitor for it and use all the same cords?
It all comes in one box.
Is that the srt-10 pillar mount?
Bought one for my 2006 cummins and the pillar mount from edge but it doesn’t fit properly
Did you hough to trim yours or am I just doing something wrong?
That is the SRT pillar! You just have to orient the adapter in the correct direction and everything works!
@@JustDiesels
Thank you
I figured it out after I sent this comment. It looks amazing and a much cleaner look then all those glow shift gauges I had in the truck
Have you calculated your MPG before and after if running it in economy mode?
This is a gauge only setup. They also make a tuner with the same display and gauge capability, but that’s not what I installed. I’m running EFI live for tuning instead.
Where did you find your 4th gen mirrors? All i can find is 4th gen mirror with lights or cheap marker lights
They're from 1aauto. Here's a link: www.1aauto.com/2006-dodge-ram-2500-truck-side-view-mirrors/y-mo-c/2006-1464-23

Explain how the CTS3 is cheaper than the 2?!?
Me with pillar gauges and the monitor 😈💪
What about Smarty touch compared to the CTS-3? Smarty advertises fastest start up
The user interface on the Edge is so much better. Edge really stepped it up to make an awesome visual layout. Everything else on the market is pretty basic.
Does the cts3 have audible notification alarms for something like coolant temps?
Yep!
what radio/head unit are you rocking?
It's an Apline Halo9 horsed unit. Got a review here: ruclips.net/video/3oThBMpl4QI/видео.html

Cool. Im gonna have to upgrade to the cts3 then. The cts2 kinda sucks hahah
Backup cam is far from plug and play. Their "solution" is a $100 adapter for rca to usb mini. Its a joke. Edge should have just kept RCA.
Can you use efi live w/ dps5 on this platform for Cummins?
Yep, 06+ which is what’s on this truck for tuning.
How did you get it to have your tunes change on the fly
It has no tuning capabilities, but it will change the power on demand setting for the smarty JR (which is just a APPS sensor adjustment within the existing tune.) It doesn't actually load a new tune.
Did you get any of the add ons? Looking at one for my 06 ram 2500

What about custom tunes?
This is not a tuning device. It’s gauges only. I run EFI live with a csp5 switch for tunes
@@JustDiesels so I need to get efi live and use this as a monitor
If only Edge would respond to my email request for additional info. For me, not a good sign if you can't get a response to an inquiry.
Just remote start and the screen will be ready when you get in lol
What tuning options does the cts3 have
None, it’s a gauge only system.
What pillar mount is that
It’s the OEM SRT pillar from Geno’s Garage!
For what ever reason edge still can't display oil pressure.
Never understood that since the truck clearly reads it. Thankfully adding the external sensor is super easy!
On my cts2 it shows my oil pressure
If you’re talking dodge it’s because there’s no oil pressure sensor. The gauge you see on the dash is dummy gauge based on temperature. There’s only an oil pressure switch
Yet my Chinese scan tool gives oil pressure in the live data.
Awwww man!!! You dissing "Gale Banks" the king of diesel now....
Just kidding bro lol, good review , I get it....
I wounder if you can get cts3 and bank's idash??
Yes.
For almost $500.00 it's a awfully expensive touch screen monitor
I prefer gauges
Do you know if I can put a tuner on and control it with the cts3
It depends on the tuner! For example mine can control the power level on my smarty jr within a tune, and I think they’re compatible with a few others as well.
Must be nice to shit on 2010-2019 trucks .....
Does this support egr and dpf deletes?
Can you put custom tunes on the insight cts3?
Nope, just gauges.
Can you change tire size with the cts2?
38s on 2018 ram 3500 deleted
Can you still run different tunes on the fly even with the cts3 just to monitor vitals
This is ONLY to have gauges, no tuning!
You can get tunes on these…
Does it come with the probes to get egts, trans temps, and fuel pressure etc?
No you add those depending on what you want to monitor.
