Best programmers for custom codes!

I am new to the forum and I was wanting some help on purchasing the best programmer for my 5.4 Liter Triton? I am wanting to get the best custom code possible for fuel economy. Which programmer would you choose?

Thanks Everyone!

sorry, but you put those 2 together...seems a little ironic to me to have a 300HP, 330 cube V-8 and be looking for fuel economy.


if you get over 12 mpg city and 16/17 mpg highway...call it a day and don't question your luck

if you get less than that...get the truck a general tune-up and remove all the misc. crap from the truck

I do not have one yet but I am looking into the Gryphon tuner which is basically an edge but with custom tunes.
