Slick

Just got a used Gryphon from an other forum member. I updated it, put it in today. Got it on tow playing around with it..then set my gears/tire size. OMG I'm impressed. Cool toy. Just got back from taking the wife on a couple hr ride. She was also impressed. Wanted to thank all in the forum for all the info that's posted and answers to my questions.

i have a custom tuned SCT X3 from VMP. I only have a V6 but it was a great difference. right now running the 87 performance tune with 87 octane gas. i am in higher elevation so i CAN use 85 but it acts so sluggish compared to using 87. but i was in PA with just my intake, then moved to colorado springs and lost a lot of power. so i bought my tuner and pretty much got it all back. just want to go on a vacation to see how much quicker my truck will be, especially against my buddy's 5.3L 06 silverado.

Really makes them fun to drive and I became totally dependant on the gauges.

Same here. Whenever I remove it I feel like something is missing.

Thx Guys
Owned Fords all my life. Use to off road them and beat the hell outa them. Rebuild it and go back. Much older now = more careful. Always bought them with gauges, no idiot light when possible. I gotta admit that these gryphon's do let the beast out. I do love driving it more, but what can I say....it's a FORD.

Enjoy
