Great,

You are gonna love it. I have it for my 06 and it really wakes the truck up. I keep mine on the number 2 setting and run 89 octane fuel. It runs great and corrected the sluggishness in the truck. I have the Edge EVO.

I got mine on Friday. 05 Screw 5.4L 2WD - I've got a couple other mods but nothing that compares to this. Registered a 7.48 0-60 on my first run. Matched it a couple times but haven't beat it yet. Maybe when the weather gets cooler. Enjoy the heck out of it. Best few hundred bucks I've spent in a long, long time.

Would you get it for a truck with only 2000 miles on it, or wait until the motor breaks in? (5000 miles). Dealer says 8000, crazy break-in time, but whatever.

Yes... Any help with the color would be helpful. I have a 2005 FX4 with 5.4L. The interior is Black and Silver. The color over the vent is a silver color. If anyone has painted their pod this color, could you tell me where you got it and how hard it was to paint it (Did the paint stick well to it?). Also did the color match the silver in the truck? Thanks for the help.

I have the black and silver in my truck. I left the pod black and it looks like it came from the factory like that. Everyone I've showed it to thinks it is factory.

If you really want it silver to match, try Krylon Fusion Graphite then drift flat black lightly over it.

I have a 06 Lariat and I painted mine. I took a piece of the silver interior into the bodt shop supply store and they took a picture of it with the paint camera and they matched it perfectly and they put it in a can for me. I had to get a can of special promoter that helps the paint stick to the plastic. All together it cost me about 40 bucks. Hope that helps.

Yes. That is exactly what I wanted to know. Thank you Sarge261. But also what Tony351 said, people think it looks factory the way it is. I guess I just like it to match up. Thanks for the info.

Well I think that if you have an Fx4 you will not need to paint as it will come Black. I am not sure what the trim package is on those trucks. My Uncle has one and its all black with like a carbon fiber trim around the radio. My truck has a 2 tone interior cause its a Lariat, Any rate enjoy the product...I do

Thumbs up

Hey Sarge.Just joined the forum and saw your posts about your lariat.I have just purchased a 2006 f150 lariat screw with the 5.4.I also have 20" wheels with the pirelli scorpions.I have ordered my edge evo for my truck and was just curious on how much better the throttle lag will be with the new unit.Will i be able to get rid of most of the lag?I like your solution to the paint matching of the pod.I believe that is what i will do!
Any input will be appreciated.

Steve
