I have a 2004 f-150 4x4 5.4 3V Lariat and just purchased the Hypertech Max power programmer. When asked if I want to change the shift points and the rev limiter I have no idea what I should set them at. My truck is a daily driver that I have kept stock. The main reason I brought the programmer was to keep from bringing the truck to the dealership for a hesitation problem. I have already programmed the fuel and stiffer shifting and the hesitation is gone. Now I want to get the most out of it and have no idea what the rest of the settings should be at. Any help is appreciated.

 

I have the Hypertech Max Energy installed on my 04 5.4 too! For the transmission shift point's here's how I have mine set! 1-2+500 2-3+100 3-4+500! Make sure you input the size of your tire's and the gear ratio so your speedometer will still be accurate! Goodluck with the programmer! I have been happy with mine!

 

Thanks for the reply I will try them settings out.

 

I have been wanting a programmer but I can't decide which one is best too buy though! Any suggestions? I have an 04 with the 5.4 too!
