super chip

I have a new ford f150 Lariat Super crew 4wd. I have been reading about these super chips that add MPG and Horsepower to the engine. Are these chips good and would it mess up warranty on truck if I use one. Does Ford have their own super chip you can buy????

How do you like your 2013 F150?

I just got one with the ecoboost engine.

F150 2013

Hello and I love this truck. Runs great and the MPG is awesome. Got a lift kit installed already and it makes it look even better now.

WIth the new vehicles you wouldnt need a chip. Most get tuners. I have heard good things about 5 star tuning from alot of people here so you might want to check them out.

Which engine do you have? I would caution against tuning your truck; if your engine or transmission blows up you can bet warranty won't cover it if you're tuned. Of course the same could be said for your lift kit in many regards.
