Tuners For 05 Lariat?

Are there any programmers available for the 05's yet? Hypertech, diablo etc...
I just put a 6" lift with 35's and this thing is a turtle. I'm thinking Magnaflow exhaust, vlant intake and tuner with 4:56 gears! I havn't seen on this board about tuners for the 05's.

Thanks

Did you notice a good seat-of-the-pants increase? I'm hoping the 4:56 gears help too.

Most definitely. I have the 3:73 ls. It'll put you back in your seat. And it sounds awesome. Not loud at cruise or idle, but when I get on it, it really rumbles.

And with the Diablo, you can download new tunes with your computer and update the tuner.

The last time I called (last month) the 05 version had NOT been released!

Mine originally was for the '04, but the latest tune includes the '05.

m1garand1, can you tell me more about your Diablo? I used to have a 6.0 Superduty with a Banks until some scumbag stole it! Looking for a little umph to this 5.4, the shift logic is really quite consevative in stock form. The truck is way too quick to upshift to O.D and then stutters unless I give enough throttle to downshift or overide and get out of O.D. Ive had several of the last generation F-150's with 2v 5.4 and same rear end and they did not seem as anemic on the grades out hear in So Cal.

I use the performance tune and with the latest revision downloaded and installed, the shift points are much better and firmer. Although that can be adjusted (haven't customized my tune yet) And, as my friend said the other day, "This thing really scoots!"
Hope that answers your questions. If not, let me know, or ask others and I'll be glad to help however I can.
