Very nice. Now go run that truck through some water and tell me if the S&B intake is dry on the inside 
I think I will end up with a S&B because of all the dang water and mud that ends up in the engine compartment

The truck feels like it actually has power. The Edge made me feel like it was tweaking the computer to all ends of the world and about to blow apart on me! 
I'm trying to see if Justin still has the stock run on his computer so he can send it to me. I'll post it up when and if I get it.

I feel confident with someone who knows the SCT tuning and is very familiar with the engine though. Not sure I'd spend the money to dyno just anywhere as those more familiar probably can get it tuned better, safer, and with less dyno time.
. I took a chance with VMP but Justin did a great job and I will be going back there after some additional mods. Just wish I had gone there with the mustang when I had it.
