ok,
the downpipe is on and the third cai is on. this new tune should prove that 80 whp to the wheel is the limit of the fueling system. This will be the next evolution of the ecoboost. I beleave ford has an opperyunity to dominate the aftermarket performance industry for the next decade. Great job to all the guys that built this new line. focus,mustang v6&v8's ,all ecoboost, 6.2l gas ,wow that thing makes power. The deisel trucks speak for themselves as well. I am looking to replace my 2011 gt with a sho. I am at 600+whp now.TOO much.

The mpg does improve with tuning. If you optimize the driving and tune the entire truck/car for mpg. Ihe right foot is the most important. the 2015 will stop and start at stop just like our 2012 328i. 17% fuel loss recovered/

Bought a used Superchips for my 98 supercab with a 5.4. When I get my 2000 hd I want to get a better tuner for it. Any suggestions?

Tons of custom SCT tuners on this board and others you can find on the web.

Franchimotorsports, troyer, 5Star, MPT, and I'm sure I'm forgetting at least a dozen others.

i run a bully dog triple dog gt tuner, in my truck, and noticed a big difference in everything from fuel consumption all the way to throttle response, i get 22-24mpg city, and 20-22mpg highway, which is weird, i run it on performance setting and run nothing lower than 91 octane for fuel, i got it dynoed and gained an average of 42hp over stock and 48lb/ft of torque, over 5 runs. i love my bully dog, best investment i made for my truck thus far, besides my bilstein shocks lol

You just need a customised tune built to your needs. Yes ,SCT has the gold standard . No your warranty is not automatically voided if you customize your car. There are many companies offering all kinds of products. I deal in some of them. I own dynos and have a shop . A new age version. The DIY method just sucks. Tell me the name of your ford dealer and ill see if you can get help. All the advice and opinions are time wasted. You just want the results. Yes? Not learn another trade. I do not hump forums for business. They are to exchange information with " car guys". Selling 1z2z's are not the most effective way to get a customers car running to there spec. The Ebay tool purchase diy. Probably eats more time and money than just going to get it done. Not unlike the " quick lube" type oil change the OE dealers are coming around. That's where I go for service. It's cheaper in the long run.
Good luck.
