Does ANYONE make a programmer for

a 2004 F250 SD with the 5.4 motor. If I understand correctly in 04 the 150 got a new version of the 5.4, one with 4 valves, while the F250 got the older 3 valve version. As such, the programmers for the F150 do not work on the F250. I have called a couple of companies only to be told they do not have a programmer for my truck. Are there any of you out there with an 04 SD with the 5.4 that have used a programmer? If so, where did you get it, and how do you like it? Thanks in advance.

The 04 SD 5.4 is a 2 valve engine. The F150 has the 3 valve engine. You can use a Superchip 1714 (that is the one I have) or the newer version 1815. I like the change in the way it shifts, and it removes the rev limiter. I must admit, I dont see a lot of change in performance (even with my K&N and exhaust mods). I bought mine on ebay for $100 so I am content.

The SCT SF 9415B is what I've got and it will work for your 04' as well. Its a good tuner and I'm happy with mine. If memory serves me right the 3V 5.4l were put in the SDs starting in 05' as were the 3V 6.8l.

hypertech is what I used but it does not work all functions with the 5.4L such as the tire size recal.
