Nope starts just fine every time.
Haven't had the time to update y'all but I finally got a different tune! Regular xcal 3 no issues. This one is from the installer and the gear selection is light years better. Holds gears longer to keep you in a better powerband. For instance...roush tune when you drive slowly from a stop would hold 1st till 1500...then got to 2nd then 3rd right away and the rpms would be so low it felt like a turd. Now it holds 1st till 1500-1700....then 2nd to the same rpms...then 3rd to the same rpms. It's so nice...cruising slow it sounds good and feels peppy. It also is not afraid to downshift to 1st when youths the gas...this usualy results in tire spin. Only thing is the power is def better but I think it's conservative still. We didn't dyno it because I plan to swap pulleys in the next week or so. So when I go back we will dyno it then swap and dyno some more. I may have home bump the timing depending what the numbers are. I really would like to be at 500/475 I think.

With the roush blower? If so I know jlp, my installer, breenspeed I heard did, and I'd guess VMP does or can pretty easy. I'm sure there's more but don't know. If just a f150 with the 5.0 there is a lot of tuners.
