Default 2012 ecoboost!!

Got a 2012 Ecoboost with a Bullydog GT tuner and a Bullydog cold air intake, I've heard I can't do much to increase fuel economy so I was wondering if anyone could help me out with some tips of what could increase my power!!!!

1. Get rid of Bullydog tuner and intake. Sell them both. Intake makes no difference in power and the Bulldog tuner isn't very good for the EB.

2. Buy a SCT Tuner from a forum vendor that includes custom tunes. The sale of your parts should basically pay for it. Enjoy the increased power and better mileage that you will get from a good custom tune over Bullydog.

Just FYI, SCT now owns Bullydog. Bullydog still has their own tunes though and I agree, the SCT ones are better for the Ecoboost.

Yes, get a SCT tuner from Torrie at Unleashed Tuning, he does a awesome job with custom tunes.

There are several that are good. The most power I have experienced is ssi. But if you aren't picky the forums vendors will still be better that what you have. Ymmv
