My vote is for a Gryphon custom tuned from PHP. http://dygytalworld.ehost-services13...php/Index.html

HP numbers are on the products page.

maybe its bettr than it seems, but 35 hp and 45 torque doesnt seem like that much or noticible. guess it must be because a lot of people have them, just thought higher numbers would come out of it.

Let's be real. Your knocking a possible 35hp and 45 torque gain. But in reality, your probably getting like 30hp.

All the other programmers. Your probably going to get about the same.. A programmer isn't going to give you a **** load of HP.

Gryphon, Livewire, Xcal3 they do custom tunes..

Bill with Gryphon knows his stuff and can make your truck perform excellent.

If you want more than "up to 35hp" you need to get a Supercharger...

https://www.f150forum.com/f4/slr-mot...ts-chip-40968/ ...maybe this will help you...
no seriously nothing is going to give you the most bang for your buck as custom tunes..
and no programmer...chip..race fuel...or ignition up grades are going to give you a huge diff on a gas engine... unless you want to throw some reall money down ...turbo..supercharger..motorswap...or get a cheap nos kit??...

Golly! If I buy 2 do I get 1000HP and 200MPG?

They should include: "Lose weight while you sleep!!" in the sales pitch.

No, if it were a real deal it would be, "Learn French and lose weight while you sleep".

But wait, if you order right now...
