I have a 2010 Lariat 5.4, 4x4. Just bought a 32ft travel camper this summer and realize it is a beast on the truck through hill country. Does fine on flat to low hill roads, but thought I would try to "learn" understand if there are "Chips" from my old day knowledge- Tuners or what else I could do to increase the torque, performance for pulling and always like the idea of a bit more peppy just for fun. Not a gearhead at all, so any guidance to research or products to look at/ be set up with would be appreciated.

 

Have been looking at options for a boost. Would a tuner & intake option like this one be a good choice? Not really wanting to drop that amount of money on it, but I do pull a cargo trailer for work along with this new camper and want better performance that is actually noticeable. Input appreciated.

Your best bet would be a good programmer such as a SCT along with a set of custom tunes from one of the good mail order tuning houses. An intake is wasted money, the stock intake is a decent cold air intake.

 

Ok, Thanks. That helps. Was wondering how much benefit it would be over the stock.
That saves me a bit of investment.
