Default Chip Upgrade

Are there any performance chip upgrades available for the 1986 F-150 fuel injected 5.0?

Have you done any modifications to your engine? What is your goal performance wise that you're looking for?

No mods to the engine, but I've installed dual exhaust and an electric cooling fan and radiator. I want to get as much Hp and Torque as possible out of it. When I get in the throttle I want to feel it more, and when I'm cruising, my milage should be better. The dual exhaust made a huge improvement in both mileage and power. It's hard to believe that the stock exhaust choked the engine down that much. The power difference is like I unhitched a trailer.
