Well "technically" they arent lying about the claim....up to 50 hp...If it in fact only gives you a 5 hp gain, it is still within the "up to" 50hp claim..haha. Extremely misleading. I am not so sure about the product though.

Smells a little fishy...

I belong to several forums from Jeeps to Mustangs. Most members report little to no change in their performance. Ford Racing makes a performance upgrade kit for Mustangs that includes a chip. They want the VIN of your vehicle so you get the right parameters for your car. I would do the research and see if Ford has something for your truck rather than buy an unknown that could mess with your warranty.

Don't waste your money. It's just .05 radio shack resisteror chip packaged pretty. There is a reason most legit tuner/programmers cost $300 on up.
