Default Repeating question, I'm sure...

I have a 2020 F150, regular cab, 4x4, 3.73 lockers, Roush and I'm looking to get a little more out of the tune.

The main tuners I see people using are, OZ Tuning and Palm Beach. Sooooooo, can people start "learning me" on the Coyote powerplant. I'm coming off the EB platform (played with SHOs since 2012) so all of this is new.

Is it a N/A Roush truck or doe sit have the Roush Supercharger? something specific you're looking for information wise on your engine? being a little more specific might get you more answers

As for tuners, those 2 and maybe Lund being the top 3, I myself and a lot of others use Oz tuning. I have been very happy and he is very easy to deal with. I have a Roush truck that was N/A then I put a Whipple on it, it runs like a scolded dog, the transmission shifts are awesome. It has been easy to deal with any issues that I've had with the truck and getting them adjusted out

No, mine does have the Roush blower and I'm just looking for a little more out of it.

It's my current daily, so I have no intentions on going all out with a build. The shifts seem lazy and I swear it stumbles in the 2500-3000 range. Now, I know the Roush h/e is comically insufficient, so the VMP h/e is eventually being added, but I was also considering a killer chiller.

Also, the limiter limits me to 1/8 fun time and that isnt much fun.

I am very happy with my OZ tune, My trans is a 6R80, but the ****s are exactly what I like. A lot of people say the Roush tune has a lot to be desired, as its pretty much 1 tune for everyone. No experience with the 10 speed personally but have heard and read the complaints, and lots of people saying its a lot better after a tune.

I tried the stock Whipple tune, it wasn't for me and yeah a 120mph speed limiter is dumb, night and day difference between the Whipple and OZ tune. You can email them and see what they say, they have awesome customer service. Looks like they have some things specific to the Roush calibrations on their website.

Oz has a tuning package for the factory Roush trucks but the big problem you'll run into on 18+ is heat soak. Because your direct injection lines are in the V valley, it cuts down on how much room they had for the heat exchanger and because of that it's quite small and inadequate. Oz can get you setup pretty well though and will have solid recommendations.

That is who I decided to go with and I'm going to add a VMP heat exchanger next.
