ive read many threads saying both no and yes. but for a 2001 2v 5.4 with a 5 speed tranny. would it benefit anything?

 

Most of the 2v 5.4 guys say no.

 

Nope you wont gain anything, some guys like the firmer shifts from the tuner but you wont even benefit from that..I only use mine as a scanner now..

 

Not worth it at all. Put the 400$ towards a spd ypipe or gears

 

I had Mike at 5 Star send me an SC3 setup for my 3 valve 08 5.4 CC and it was night and day. But everything I have seen or read about the earlier 2 valves being bumped on a tuner has been less than stellar. The big difference on my 08 was the removal of the horrible lag in the drive-by-wire throttle and the lazy shifts. Your 01 won't suffer from those particular ailments. Your dollars might be better spent on the Y-pipe upgrade if you haven't done that yet...

 

thanks for the responses guys that's kinda what I thought just wanted a few more opinions

 

Flip on it! I had one on my 2 valve F350 in my sig for about three months, now it sits on a shelf in my garage. Got it on CL now, get gears and the ypipe best things I ever did besides the shift kit I installed and now my Detroit Locker

this was my experience also, but i also have a 2008..

 

what about on a 05 v10>? its a lariet if it makes a diff.

 

all the three valve motors seem to get better with a tuner, mostly because they use drive by wire and the tuner takes all the delay out of the throttle pedal, and it adjusts the five speed trans that Ford has set to the worst shift points etc
