Default Custom tunes

Ok guys it's come to that time I'm wanting to get some custom tunes for my programmer. My truck is a 2000 f150 with a 5.4. The only mods I have is the gotts mod, and straight piped exhaust. What is the best tune for 87 octane? And the best place to get them from? I'm thinking performance and towing. Or. Maybe just performance if the towing dose not make that big of a difference.

I'd go with a performance tune for daily driving and a towing tune for if you ever pull over 1500-2000 pounds. PHP would be my first choice, I had a Gryphon on my old truck and loved every minute of it. PHP will do SCT tunes also since you have an X3. Here's a list of reliable places to get tunes.

Companies that you can trust:
Power Hungry Performance.......Edge/Gryphon Products and SCT
Troyer Performance ......SCT products
VMPTUNING ..........SCT products
5-Star Tuning..........SCT products
Henson performance .......SCT products
Tunes By James.......SCT products
Blow By Racing.......SCT products
Unleashed Performance.......SCT Products
Brenspeed......SCT Products
