Welcome to the forum r6rider33

Since you have an intake and cat back you will be best off going with a custom tune to make sure the A/F ratio stays at a safe level.
I recommend getting an XCal and custom tunes; you’ll like it

Sent back a Diablosport Predator for a refund to get an XCal3 with custom tunes from Troyer Performance. If you are considering a Predator, visit the website and read the forums. They have created quite a following of upset customers!

Since you have a CAI what ever you get, you will want custom tunes.
Go with a xcal2 or 3 (dont know the diff)
or Edge evo.
There the most popular around here...
If you like the dash pod go with the edge.

X2 The Pred will not fit some F150s because Diablo doesn't support the ECM number.

I have the Evo Edge on my 06 5.4 that i bought back at the fist of the year. it has worked great. it has done evry thing that EDGE advertised it would do. ( lacking the prof of HP numbers but we ALL fudge those.) if i have had guestions i started here. Some of the senior members or very help full. My gas mileage has gone up but more importantly the horsepower too. i don't have numbers but enough that i can tell when i put down the right foot. I would buy it again. it' s a 5min self install, 10-15 min setup, and you will be playing with it till you up grade.

I like the looks of the pod. Hit Bill up for some custom tunes on his edge/gryphon. The x-cal and some tunes would be a great choice also.
