I just got a 5star tune on mine for 93 and E85. I will report back once I have some seat time. I just loaded the 93 tune this morning at work and haven't had a chance to drive it yet today. It started ok so thats a good sign! LOL

I assume Ford has people reading this Forum considering its popularity. My hope is that they come up with an OEM tune revision SOON to fix what is wrong with the erratic part throttle behavior of the truck.
I've decided that its probably best that I deal with it for now and then just get the Whipple since I plan on moving soon to CO anyway. At that altitude without Forced Induction I'm looking at nearly a 95HP LOSS while in NA trim which would bring this potent 5.0 at sea level down to a sad 200whp or less after the move. The truck would barley be able to get out of its own way at that point. An NA Tune would probably bring 50whp at best for a staggering 250whp at elevation.

We have been tuning the 2018 F-150s for quite some time now and also offer both engine and transmission tuning on the 5.0L models via the all new Mycalibrator Touch tuning device. Our 93 octane tuning sees maximum gains over 31hp and 42tq! In addition to these performance enhancements, we also spent a great deal of time improving throttle response, part throttle shifting, and working to ensure our updates play well in all 3 driving modes. Coupled with the performance upgrade, these drivability changes make the truck feel greatly improved in day to day usage.
As with all of our previous tuners, purchases gain you access to all future updates and revisions as well!
