Ahh ok.Gotcha.Yes the Evo settings for the timing are in Percents.N right now it reads 0.00% for the timing.If that tells you anything?lol.
How much you think i should crank the timing up for my Tow performance?I will not go back to 91octane gas till next year spring time.So for the time being am staying with low gas which is 87octane.
Will tell ya one thing.In the tow performance setting i have noticed better fuel economy.Ona weekly basis i drive to my friends house who is about 2 hours away.Before the tuner i would use just over a quarter tank of gas to get there.Did the drive yesterday,drove the same way i always do,and used just under a quarter tank.Of course all this is cruise control going 68mph.

On 87, you can add 2* of timing and still have room left for knock safety. Adding more than 2* is not a good idea.

Once I get my truck I may check out the Evo. It will be hard to justify it though when all I have to do is get a template for a 5.4L for my current software. lol.
I have a pretty sweet setup as far as tuning goes. But thats what happens when you drop over 1k on crap to tune your vehicles. LOL
But on the bright side, iv never needed to visit a dyno for my own car or anyones car that iv tuned on the side to get their tune NAILED. Iv tuned pretty much everything except for some over the top race setups. so all this stuff has paid for itself tenfold.

I haven't messed with the timing at all, mostly just shift firmness and shift points. The shift firmness is at +7 for all 3, which is a nice kick in the pants. WOT Shift rpm is:
1-2: 5400
2-3: 5400
3-4: 5000
Max RPM: 6000.
Max MPH: 135
1-2: 5400
2-3: 5400
3-4: 5000
Max RPM: 6000.
Max MPH: 135

I put the Edge CS in my truck a couple of weeks ago. Put it on "Tow" and enjoyed the difference while pulling my trailer. This morning after reading all this, I decided to go out and play around with my Edge a bit since I have been gone away for a few days. Am I crazy or do I not have all these setting that you guys are talking about?? I can't find anything in my menu that would give me the options that you guys are talking about. The box and everything is at my trailer so cant use that for refernce. Please give me a direction to go in here.lol..l Thanks guys

Looks like this post is getting attention, albeit some "discussions" on tunning basics, etc.
We can add it to the existing sticky "Stop! Before you post Read this! Common useful links!" that is/was maintained by CrashTECH.
The only rules for doing this is that we keep this link clean, meaning no arguements within the link; just posts on what programming settings folks have/are using, and their results.

Ok Ive been holding off on commenting on this thread, since I've only had my F150 for 2 months. I was all about tuning my F250 before which was Diesel. So im still new to the gas tuning. So feel free to comment on my stats.
89 Tow Tune
Shift Firmness: 12 for all gears
Standard Shift Points: Same
Torque Converter Standard Lock Points: -4 for 4th gear, -2 for 3rd gear
WOT Shift: 1-2:5300 2-3:5300 3-4:5000
WOT Fuel: 1.35
Timing: .5
Rev Limit: 5450
NOTES:
- Overall shift performance is tight. Hits every gear with a firm but smooth shift. Torque Converter unlocks quicker
while accelerating. Still have problem with kicking too hard into gear while slowing to a stop then accelerating again.
- MPG: Before running Edge stock level 2: 13.3mpg.
Running modified Edge Level 2: 15.0mpg after.
Performance Tune (Level 3) 93 Octane Only
WOT Shift: 1st-2nd 5300; 2nd-3rd 5300; 3rd-4th 5000
WOT Fuel: 1.8
Timeing: 1.5
Shift Firmness: 12-all
Rev Limiter: 5450
Standard Lock Points: 3rd -4; 4th -6
Tire Size: 2776mm
Gear 3.55
Obviously change your tire size by using the calculations in your Evo instructions as well as your gear size.
Overall have been very happy with the 89 Tune have been running it for 2 weeks and noticed a huge increase in fuel mileage all hand calculated as well before anyone asks.
The performance tune I have not had time to run a full tank of fuel on so I dont want to get to in too detail as to what i think of it so far. But I think it could be improved a little more.
Open to suggestions or improvements.
