programmer

Hello all,

I have a 98 f250 4x4 ld 4.6L. I notice that it struggles to get up the canyon hills here in Arizona. I can be empty just me and my bag of clothes and going up the canyon hills to the white mountains it won't go past 45 unless I put it in passing gear.I have put a 3" pipe with a magna flow and a spectre performance air filter. No cai.

My question is has anyone every had a programmer in this type of truck?
Two different ones were recommended to me.
The SCT and I forgot the other one.
Can anyone give me some advice on if I should spend the money or not? Do these things work?

Thanks in advance
