I bought a used SCT BDX @ $150 and the Gearhead AO performance tune @ $150. Best money I ever spent on the truck (with the $350 5100 set a close 2nd). That said, I don't think the NA 5.0 tunes can be nearly as effective as they are on the boosted motors without significant other mods.

Completely agree. Have mine on my 2017 for the past 6 years and still rock solid... been a great shock except the finish paint isn’t good. Has no effect however how the shock performs.

Finally ordered my levelling struts and shocks last night. I don't want to get overly aggressive since I only went with the 275/60R20, which is a 33" vs the OEM 32". So I am thinking I want to set to the 1.26" level.
