Nope, Nope, Nope, Nope, Nope.

Think about it, if you could add 25hp and 5mpg by putting in a resistor, dont you think ford would have done it?

The only way a resistor can help hp is on a diesel, if you had a 7.3 you can even make it lope from a resistor. But on a triton it does absolutely nothing.

You will NOT be assimilated. Nor will you be happy with that purchase. GOTTS Mod, exhaust, and maybe a programmer will do the trick.
