Horsepower on 4.6 V8
My 2008 5.4 is rated @ 300 hp. I now have an Edge programmer and Magnaflow exhaust and I would be lucky if I'm pushing 305 hp now.

i have Sniper custom tune by my self. no wait times its 425 bucks for the program and interface but you can tune 2 ford gas from 96-04 maybe even more now. i went half n half with my buddy so we each only payed 200 bucks for a custom tune. its very simple drop box's for everything and sniper has awesome customer support. we had an interface prob and within a week they sent us a new one free. made a world of diff in my truck. shifts firmer and holds out the RPM longer on WOT runs. no more CEL from EGR or rear o2's just feels like a diff. truck. i love it. wish i woulda got it sooner.
heres my F150 thread on it.

See easy drop box's
if you look around you could prob get a better deal but 350-430 is avg price.
Here is snipers site.

Any Idea what kind of gains from the Sniper, just wondering how they compare to some reputable tuners.

on the sniper forum one of the guys that works for it said with the right version and mods in a tune alone they have seen 15-25RWHP and 20-45 RWTQ. but remember this is all the mods and then adding a tune to bring it all together. they said they see even more gains when people send them there tune and they use the commando tuning to fine tune everything.
Sniper sells dodge tuning stuff too. cant speak for them but it seems its very easy to make power out of a chevy or dodge. seems hard to squeeze HP out of these fords. and dodges sound so sexy with an exhaust i have no idea why they sound so much better but they do.
