I have seen an increase in all three with my Diablosport Predator. More power, 1 to 2 more mpg and better towing torque using the 93 octane setting.

I don't know which did the most, but I went from 13.5mpg to 19.5 hwy after denso plugs, the update to Sniper's special forces and a factory tech valve body.

I have a Excal ordered for my truck. I should get it Thursday. I'll give it a test for mpg after a few days of playing with it. I gained about 2 mpg with the custom tuned Superchip I have now.

Edge makes one for the 5.4 depending on the year. They even work for the SD with the 5.4, I know I have one. I believe the part number is EEF-2100

You are correct with the part number. I know this because I just bought one.

I've run a couple of tanks of gas through my truck now. It doesn't seem much stronger than the custom chip I had on it. I didn't expect it to since the chip did a good job in the power department. I ran mid 15s with the chip & my other mods. It does shift better & gets around 16 mpg in the city. Thats one more than I was getting. I haven't made a highway trip to check the mileage yet. I'm happy with the SCT so far.

I ordered a power pro by hypertec from 4 wheel parts, they sent me the wrong one. so I returned it and had them send me a superchip. I have not received that one yet. I know a little about superchip, my cuz put it in his 02 f-250 diesel, with 39"s it made a big difference
