I would..

You don't want to let them know that you have a programmer mod.. Don't want any warranty issues to come up if you have any kind of failure later on..The Predator builds on the original/latest flash..

What HP range/s have you been using with the new toy!!

No if, ands, or buts about it...
DO go back to stock and clear any codes if present...

I've been running in the 100 hp mode for over a week...
had it on the 65hp since I got it and it was NICE !!!!
This 100 horse my spin all four tires from a boosted start !

If ford reflashes your truck, it won't match what's stored in the predator...
