I know your truck as well, -ask it.


Not much you can do with these trucks with a programmer. You can do a little, but is it worth it? The 99's was the start for the 5fours. 2001 for the 4sixes. Meaning you could get a little more out of it from altering trans (shift) and fuel tables. Mainly it's all in the shift vs fuel. In 2004, Ford left a lot more on the table. You could re-program fuel alone for a good increase, -trans tables to compliment.

What benefits most w/10th generation trucks is intake and exhaust with gearing to match the rubber your running. For 99+ , A tuner with say 3 canned tunes was only worth the expenses after opening and smoothing the intake air and doing the same with the exhaust, -from LT headers/HF's and a direct flow muffler (s)

Depends how much in takes to satisfy it being worth all that to you. Personally,I wouldn't waste my time unless it would net 350hp plus in the end. Then I'd consider it worth the effort.
