New HKS SSQV4 Released at UpscaleAutomotive.com!

HKS LAUNCHES The NEW GENERATION SUPER SEQUENTIAL BLOW-OFF VALVE, THE SUPER SQV 4 (SSQV4).

In 1994, HKS introduced the first Sequential Blow-Off Valve featuring a unique, pull-type, sequential valve structure and a differential pressure control system. This advanced pull-type relief system allowed for stable operating ranges from low to high boost pressures. Since imitation is the highest form of flattery, HKS has once again redesigned the physical aspects of the Super Sequential Blow Off Valve to thwart off the counterfeiters.

Reliable functionality of the SSQV4 is unchanged and utilizes the same mounting flanges as all previous generation SSQVs. This assures compatibility with all optional HKS SSQV inserts, recirculation fittings and recirculation kits.

The HKS SSQV4 features include a nickel-plated, die-cast metal secondary valve, which is swaged to the primary valve, a stainless steel C-Clip and spring to increase sealing and durability.

The HKS SSQV4 is available for purchase at UpscaleAutomotive.com!

Edge Products Now Available at Upscale Automotive!

Edge has a power-packed product line with a large range of applications. All Edge products are completely plug-and-play so installation is never an issue. Edge is well known for their Diesel and Gas truck tuners that support base maps and custom tunes. They also offer the Insight line OBDII & sensor monitoring units. So even if you're not in need of a full featured tuning unit, the Insight is something you should check out!

Edge Display Options

Evolution CS: The Evolution CS in-cab controller, monitor and digital gauge display features a full-color, high-resolution 2.4-inch, button-controlled screen. The CS features a rugged case, user-friendly buttons, an easy-to-navigate menu, and a light sensitivity meter that automatically adjusts the brightness for improved viewing for day and night driving.

Evolution CTS: The Evolution CTS in-cab monitor and digital gauge display is a full- color, high-resolution 4.3-inch touch screen device. The CTS has all the features of a CS but also comes equipped with a video-in port allowing users to connect to Edge’s state-of-the-art back-up camera (sold separately including night vision and locking license plate mount) or any compatible off-the-shelf backup camera or video source.

Legacy: Edge’s first generation programmer display, the Edge Evolution Legacy can display and clear diagnostic trouble codes and adjusts speed and rev limiters. Incredibly, the Edge Evolution is the first programmer to keep on working once the ECU is flashed. By leaving the Evolution attached, it will also provide 0-60 and quarter mile times.

Edge Products
Insight: The Insight is an easy-to-install standalone multi-gauge display which can read out OBDII information or connect to a myriad of aftermarket sensors. The insight also acts as a Scan Tool, Back Up Camera Display (camera sold separately), Warning system, and Performance measuring system.

Evolution: The Edge Racing Evolution model features seven power levels that provide jaw- dropping horsepower and torque gains of up to 250+ additional HP and 450+ ft. lbs. of torque. The Race tuner provides custom-built tunes designed for race or competition vehicles that have modified free-flowing exhaust systems. Horsepower and torques numbers varies depending vehicle year, make, model and modifications.

Juice with Attitude: Juice with Attitude is Edge’s most sophisticated and power-producing module to date. The Juice with Attitude dramatically improves driveability, towing capability, mileage and power. The Juice plugs into the truck’s factory connections in a matter of minutes and communicates directly with the engine’s ECM, from which it receives vital engine data and fuel system information. This communication enables the Juice to provide smooth and precise power under any driving condition. The Attitude is the in-cab controller that controls the Juice and provides constant real-time updates on the truck’s vital information. Using the Attitude, one can choose from five different power levels and shift on the fly. The Juice with Attitude produces noticeable gains in horsepower and ft-lbs of torque — anywhere from 20-70 additional horsepower and 60-120 additional ft-lbs of torque to the rear wheels. It is the premium power module, controller and gauge package. The Attitude functions as a comprehensive gauge display by monitoring exhaust gas temperatures (EGTs), turbo boost, transmission slip and engine coolant temperature. The module even has built-in safety features to protect the truck, such as audible alerts and automatic defueling to prevent excessive EGT, boost levels and transmission slippage. It also displays 0-60 and quarter-mile times, adjusts for non-stock tire sizes and displays clears diagnostic trouble codes. Additionally, this is the first ever Internet-updateable module that Edge offers. Simply put, the Juice with Attitude is the simplest upgrade for the most driveable horsepower on the market.
