What does not exposed mean? I run a sctX4 from 5 star and really like it. I have not tried any other tuners.

I assume he is looking for something the dealer can't see installed.

Oh ok. Well in that case there are none. Most will return their truck to stock before it goes into the shop though.

By exposed I mean so it can't be seen by someone if they look in the cab.
Primary for security reasons ..

Using a SCTX4, you just plug it into your ODB port, download your tune, and unplug it. Nothing there to physically see.

How does that tuner affect your throttle response? Does it help the delay time at all?

Yes it will be completely gone if you hate that delay you will love the tuner. Ford left alot to be desired in the programing of the drive by wire.
