Which programmer for my app....

I am adding a SVT supercharger to my 04 Expedition. Which programmer should I get for this app? Right now I plan to go factory settings equal to the Lightning, but may want to upgrade later on.

If you are adding a supercharger to your 5.4 you might want to look at the Roush kit it comes with a programmer.

Roush has you send your stock pcm in for reprogramming and then they ship it back within 48 hours.

Hi Michael,

Well, you can't just "go factory settings for a Lightning," as you cannot take any off-the-shelf tuner and just plug it in and make your engine think it's a Lightning, it doesn't work like that.

By far the most important thing is the actual *tuning*, and tuning these late-model trucks successfully and properly for superchargers is something that few can really do right. We have done many hundreds of them, and can take care of that for you, if you like.

Just give us a call at our number listed below & we'll be happy to go over all of that with you in appropriate detail.
