You can get a Pro-M from SPmotorsports, I think they start around $419.

For those of you joining late, if you have not seen or read the article run and find a copy. Read it very carefully there is wealth of info for us 4.6 owners looking for more bang. It definately opened my eyes to some new options of what to do next. Glad I read it before ordering an Airaid, that PRO-M MAF kit has got me thinking. The reason I mentioned to read carefully is, there are some explanations about the dyno readings in regards to peak HP and peak Torque.

For what it's worth, my friend snuck a Superchip into his wife's 4.6 Expedition without telling her. After driving it the first time, as soon as she walked into the house, her first words were to the effect of "What did you do? It runs a lot stronger!"

I guess she didn't read the article that said she lost 0.8 hp. Oh yeah, the article didn't test a Superchip.

My wife also noticed a difference shortly after I installed the Superchip in my truck. We went to the mall a few days later (it was her first time in the truck with the new chip). She knew about the chip...but was shaking her head the entire way (and back home) and said something to the effect of "just what you need"
