You are better off calling them 870-422-FORD (3673)


I had PHP before I got BTS tunes and they blow PHP away. Egt's are very controllable. In my tow tune it's hard to see 1100* in my 140 tunes I have very little smoke. And my trans have never shift this good

If you have a ts chip it's a 100 for a burn

Uh Oh...I talked with Tina a few days ago about adding a tune to my chip, and reflashing a friends TS chip, she said one to two weeks and I should have my chip back I hope it doesn't take 7 weeks
She did say that they were very busy, so I'll keep my fingers crossed.

I agree with what Mike said above. I've tried Superchips, & DP before but I absolutely love my BTS tunes. EGT's are in check, the shifts are spot on, No touchy fuel pedal, and the engine is "stock" quiet in any tune.
It may take a while for Brian to get a free moment to burn you a chip, but I have to say that it's worth the wait.

i have had many tunes...cale(while at BTS), PHP, DP(both "canned" and Live tuned), and now BTS. Never emailed them...just call and ask Tina to speak with Brian...He has ALWAYS dropped what he was doing to speak with me. He was amazing to me when i was having a HP oil problem. its a very long story..PM me for more info...i LOVE BTS tunes.

my truck has never run better, and i gained about 3mpg from switching to BTS from DP live tuned...again...i DID NOTHING ELSE(mod wise)...just unplugged DP chip, installed BTS chip. If you call and talk to Brian, you will be impressed.

you wont be disappointed with BTS....Great People

Yep he is a great man to deal with. I'll be sending my chip back to him in Jan. or Feb. after I get my trans built and a s366 put in.
