Custom tunes for the intake. Search Power Hungry Performance. After that search for info on electric fans.

How do you like the tunes? Did you notice the power difference? How many different tunes did you get?

I found the custom tune is better than the edge preloaded then because you tell them exactly what u have done to ur truck and they tweak it all for you. My opinion is the custom tune is hands down the best way to go. When the snow melts here I'll return my truck to stock and do a 0-60 and 1/4 mile run and then put the tune back on and check the differences. I got a 83 octane and 91 octane both performance tunes. U get 2 tunes per purchase
