are the '09's able to compensate without running lean????
that 5.4 sure likes the tune

At this point the tuning will not compensate for the addition of a CAI but the good news is now that the 09 apps are finished we are ready to start working on specific CAI files for the F-series gas applications so that you will be able to run a CAI without issues in the near future.
As I receive more info on this option I will be sure to post the data.

Wow, according to those dyno results the stock tuned 4.6L 3V makes more HP and just 1 lb/ft less torque than the stock tuned 5.4L! Can that really be right?
That's nice and all for the 5.4, but that's awful for the 4.6. I know the 3 valve 4.6 hasn't been out long for the F150, but it's been out since 05 on the Mustangs. I'm sure your company can put a little bit more effort into it.
Ok, I just reread the charts and retract that statement. Seems the little 4.6 is giving the 5.4 a run for it's money.

Specifics on the AFR is something we prefer to keep confidential for competitive reasons but I will say that we are reducing the fuel ratio's to a more precise alignment with the air to minimize waste.

And that is fine. I have done custom tuning on my own cars and have used different products to do it. From what I have seen the factory tunes are almost always rich for safety reasons. And most tuning devices/programs lean it out to give a dual benefit...power and mpg. But some products go too far with the leaning out and cause drivability and longevity issues. I have not used your tuning products so I don't know your usual setups which is why I asked.
