performance part with a chip
when checking out the chip for a ford f150 with a 4.6l it says up to ( i think) 24hp. is this will extra performance parts or is it stock? if it is stock. what would be the average hp from a chip with parts like headers, true duals, air intake, and underdrive pulleys?
thanks for your time and anwser

I believe all figures posted are with "Stock" engines. If you were to run headers, you really should opt for the custom programming. It helps to fully utilize the headers. I think the rest is ok. As a side note, I would suggest NOT running underdrive pullies. They are ok for stangs and the like, but not trucks.

The ratings are for stock. It varies by ECU code, altitude, fuel quality, etc. I recommend we do it as a custom program for headers, especially if they are long tube headers in order to avoid a lean condition and setting off the check engine light. The intake and underdrive pulleys won't change the programming.

been away from the computer for a few days. i am putting on header this week end and getting true dual in two to three weeks. i don't think i will get the underdrive pullys. then i will look for the chip. and a limited slip dif for the rear end.
