Help please

I just bought a 06 F150 KR and was looking at getting a good tuner and intake for it. It is the 5.4L and I am my Ford dealer is going to add the rousch dual exhaust on there as soon as it gets in. I was looking at the Edge Evolution because of the ability to change it right away since I will be driving about 43 miles to work everyday now and still want to be able to tow my boat on the weekends too without having to do a lot of changing and waste a lot of time. I had a superchips micro tuner for my 98 and didn't change it much because it took a while. I was looking at the AEM Brute Force due to it not needing the filter to be oiled when cleaning. I want to be able to get the best MPG for commuting and power when I want it and need it for towing. If you have any suggestions on a good combination for my truck and what I'm looking for please let me know, I am open to suggestions.

Also has anyone tried to mount the Edge unit in the ash tray??
Thank you

Custom tuning is the way to go IMO

I’ve been tuned since 04 and have never had a glitch

I was thinking about getting some tunes on a Xcal II from Troyer but the only thing I was wondering is what is the average loading time on them? I want something that isn't too long, like my old micro tuner.

I missed this question ... It only takes a few minutes to load a tune.

Silence is a form of consent. You just seem to push VMPs tunes awfully hard. Ya don't have to be ashamed that you are getting a commission. I would do virtually anything to get out from under my parents roof also...

I also have a custom tune...does that make one an expert?

I don't get any commission. Otherwise I'd be pushing for everyone to tell Justin I sent them but I don't.

You can voice your opinion just like anyone else here but it's kind of amusing that it's a problem for someone to voice their opinion about something other than Troyer Performance. I don't think I've ever seen you help anyone in this section, you just like to try to instigate things with me because you know I'll respond. It's pretty damn immature.

A simple response is all that I was looking for...thanks for answering. And yes, I do help people...I just don't go about it by coercing them to go somewhere. Hmmmm, who does that? Is that helping?

The last time I heard someone use the term "immature", was high school girls...
