tuners or pcm upgrades
Hey guys I need some help! I have a 2012 5.0 I'm confused about the difference between pcm upgrades and tuners. Don't they both do the same thing? What is the best bang for my buck!

I've never heard of it as a PCM upgrade? A tuner or programmer is what you want. Edge and SCT are the two most popular by far for the F series, there is a massive sticky on the forum detailing a lot of info on tuning for trucks.

Guys,
I have a 11' F150 with the 5.0 and an looking at putting and a catback exhaust system with a Tuner. Leaning to either a MPT SCTX4 or the 5* SCTX4. Does the Ford MPG calculator still compute correctly after installing one of these tuners? I had a 7.3 F250 and put an Edge Programer on it and the Ford calculator was way off.
Also on the fence about adding a CAI to my truck.
Thanks for any info
