Default Gearhead Tune

So, did a quick search in a couple of spot on here. I found on guy waiting for geared to read his data log and send him the tune.

They only have one tune from what I can see on their website and from what I am seeing they use the Auto Octane feature already built into the ECU and modify it to work better. With a few bolt on parts and running 93 octane they were able to achieve right around 404hp.

So does anyone have their tune and do you like what it is doing for your truck? Also, what bolt of performance parts do you have?

I have both 5* and MPT custom tunes. Never heard of the one you speak of but the MPT 93 race tune I'm using as a DD has been dyno proven to put down more than 400hp on my 5.0. They have dyno graphs on their website if you care to look it up.

Thanks guys. I actually found a thread on the F150 Ecoboost website and was able to read up on it a bit. I may pull the trigger and buy it. I am in the 89 race tune by MPT and I am not like the shift points on the transmission, and even though you can hit the tow/haul button, the gear changes are off. I hit the brakes and it will shift me down and then sometime it stays locked in gears and I have to hit the button to get out of the tow/haul. I hit up MPT about it and they say it is common as it is part of the tow/haul program and they can't get away from it.

A few guys on fordraptorforum.com are running Gearhead tunes in their 2017 H.O. ecoboost Raptors. So far they are getting good reviews.
