Good stuff isn't it!? I think the improved throttle response and shift characteristics are worth the price alone!! I burned through a tank of 87 in a little less than a week, then put in the 93 and loaded the 93 tune... Woohoo!!!

What tune are you running?

This is definitely the best mod for the money, quite possibly the best mod for these trucks period.

I agree 100%. I do alot of towing because of my toys so I got the 87 tow, 91 tow and 91 performance and I have been running 91 in my truck for the last month waiting for my tunes so natually I had to run the performane tune first.

Talk about TP envy. I know you are one happy camper. I'm running the 87 out of the truck now. Will it hurt anything for me to start running 93 before I get my tunes? My Stage 1 expected arrival, 9/6/06.

How much 87 is left in the tank? If its below 1/4 of a tank you will be fine, just don't put any more 87 in it.

For Whodatt,

Excellent, glad to hear it - it IS indeed worth the wait, and it just inspires us to no end when we see these kinds of posts - that makes all our hard work worthwhile - thank you!

For NASTY-FX4 - NEVER try to judge a performance modification on whether or not you can spin the tires in these 3-ton trucks, that's just not the way to do it - there are far too many variables, especially the actual rubber compound (and there are many different compounds on the same tire right fro the factory) to ever have that be consistent. For example, some guys with 35" can light them up, while others with stock 32's cannot - it just depends on the available traction, really.

Now as to power gains - figure that you are going to see roughly about a 10%-13% increase in horsepower, and about a 13%-18% increase in torque - our 87 octane tuning typically gains 25 horsepower at the rear wheels, for example, on the 2004 & up 5.4 3V F-150's, and our premium gas tuning even more. this will also depend on the quality of fuel being used, and any other mods used - there are some intake kits that really kill low-end torque, for example.

the most important point to remember is that our tuning is the single best bang-for-the-buck performance enhancement you can add, as nothing else for the same or less cost will do as much for the vehicle's performance - now that's not to say that it's going to turn a 3-ton truck into a rocketship, as one might think by how some of the posts read, but it is the best bang for the buck, and that is why so many people come to us, as we have specialized in the performance tuning & modification of these vehicles for 15 years.

If you'd like to go over any of the details, please feel free to give us a call at our number below.

And for whodatt - be careful out there, don't get any tickets!

Thank you very much Mike, this is by far the best mod so far for my truck. Do I have to put the stock tune back on to get this grin off my face every time I start her up? lol

Now why would I do a dumb thing like that? hehe
