Hello everybody,
I just stumbled across this forum when i was lookin for the answer to the question im about to ask ya'll. I have a 1999 F-150 4.6L and im trying to get the most power possible out of my truck. My original plan was to buy a Hypertech power programmer III, install a K&N generation II intake kit, as well as stainless steal Gibson Headers and Borla exhaust. However, on the Hypertech website it says the programmer is only compatible with "near-stock" engines. Does anyone know if i can use the K&N kit and the Gibson headers with the Hypertech programmer? if I cant is there another module that is compatible with those alterations? (Jet modules for instance) Also if anyone has any other advice or first hand experience on how to get some more power out of their F-150, i would be very greatful.
thank you all for your time

The Superchips Microtuner, available [link: motorhaven.autoanything.com/cgi-bin/Web_store/webshop.cgi?&product=superchips|here] will do the job and so will Diablo chips available [link: motorhaven.autoanything.com/cgi-bin/Web_store/webshop.cgi?&product=diablochips|here]. Hypertech and Jet only tune at wide-open throttle, which is good if you only drive with your throttle pedal to the floor!
