Thumbs up for 5 Star!!
Hi guys!
I just recieved my SCT XCAL3 from mike at 5 Star. It came with 3 custom tunes; 87 perf. , 87 econ. , and 91 performance. I only tried the 87 performance and the truck runs great! Great off the line and good pull thru the midrange rpm. I'm really excited about this because my truck was a dog before. I can't wait to try the 91 performance
.
I know this is my first post but been lurking here for a little while now.
Thanks Mike!!

6.2 Programmers??
How do these programmers affect warranty when / if you have to take it in for something?
Is it easily removeable before you take truck to dealer or do they care?
What gains could be expected in a 2012 dual wheel f-350 4x4 6.2 ?
Does it just plug in a Raptor tuning map or 13,300 gvw truck has to be something different?
Thanks in advance!

Yes, they are easily removeable, but if Ford wants to search/dig, they can determine you have used a tuner. If you have an engine related failure (under warranty) it is very possible that Ford will deny the warranty claim based on your use of the tuner.
I strongly suggest you go to 5startuning.com and call Mike or PM fordmdb.

I don't work for Mike and I've never bought a tuner from him. I was VERY close, but in the end I bought a PHP Gryphon CTS cause I wanted the real-time gauges.
I'm curious, do you have a phone? If so, why haven't you called Mike?
