99' V-10

What's the best tuner for my truck? It's 4x4 w/ 33's (stock gears), ebay headers, Y converson, no cat. & a stock muffler.

I'd go with an SCT Xcal and a custom tune. I got tunes for my V10 from 5 Star Tuning | Custom Dynomemeter Chassis Tuning Products and Services

I have similar mods on my truck. I would recommend swapping out the stock muffler for a freer flowing unit, however having no cat helps.

I've tried a FM70, FM50, FM40, open exhaust & cat only. They all make it sound like a ricer. The no cat w/ factory muffler is the most tolerable/decent sound I've came across.

Heres a link to the exhaust thats on my truck, theres also a video clip in there too. https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/7...-fm70-mod.html

I have a dynatech cat among other things on my truck and it doesn't sound anything like a ricer.
