Well I finally broke down and went ahead and ordered some goodies for the truck. In about 4-5 weeks I should be the proud owner of 87tow, 87max and 93max Troyer Tunes and a brand new 3.25" AirForceOne intake. Now the waiting game begins......

 

change the 87tow to 93 tow. You could just return your truck to stock for "87 tow"

 

I don't really tow very often, but when I do, I'll just fill up with 87, tow, then run the rest of the tank out with the 87max, then switch back to 93max. I don't really see a need to burn 93 when towing anyways....

 

to make the most power for towing-phil

 

Interesting. I just ordered the same thing yesterday except I go the 87 performance, 93 performance, and the 93 tow.

If you haven't had the pleasure of talking with Mike Troyer then you are missing a treat. What a knowledgable and honest individual who really cares about his work. Not to mention he is quite the salesman.

I can't wait to get the tuner and the AF1 in. I am hoping that I can use my Edge Evolution for the guages that it provides and use Mike's tunes. Not sure if the Edge will allow this or not.

 

I don't see why not.....

 

If the Edge doesn't work, you could sell it and hook-up a ScanGaugeII. I just hooked mine up the other day and love it!

 

Hi NCSU_05_FX4,

Congratulations on your tune & AF1 combo order - that's going to wake that truck up very nicely!

Each person's selection of tunes needs to be based on what *they* want and how they use their truck - for someone not doing a lot of frequent heavy towing, having an 87 octane towing tune is perfectly fine, especially in these 5.4 3V F-150's, as the power gains on 87 octane are still very significant - it's not like the 1997-2003 5.4 2V's, where they gained twice as much power on premium as they do on 87 - if not more.

Now if someone was towing a heavy load with any frequency, and over any distance, then yes, I'd advise going with a premium gas tow tune - but if not, then just enjoy the increased power for towing on 87 octane fuel that is easily had with the 5.4 3V engines.

Anyway, congrats on your order, & we'll get it out just as quickly as possible!

 

Just called up TP and found out they're sending my tuner today so I they can check the computer code. My sticker says TEM7, but that code seems to get reflashed by some dealers without any documentation. Anyways, the wait is almost over, woohoo! :santa:

Update: Tracking says the package left Roanoke VA and is headed to NC!

Update II: Package arrived in Greensboro NC at 11:52 AM, almost there!

 

That sounds like real good news

 

UPS tracking says my gear is on a truck for delivery! Hopefully they'll drop it off before lunchtime so I can run home and check it out!

 

A-N-T-I-C-I-P-A-T-I-O-N....

 

checked at lunchtime... nothing yet......


Update: It's arrived!! Roommated just sent a message saying UPS just stopped by, think I might have to cut out of work a little early!

He got it from Troyer Performance...same place I'm getting mine from...
