I had one for my 99 F250 SD. It was the same model as the F 150 with the 5.4. If I remember correctly the model was EFF 2100 or EEF 2100.

Was it worth the money? How much power did you gain? Was it very noticeable on the 5.4? My only experience with Edge is on the Cummins motors (Edge Juiced w/ Attitude).

just looked on Edge's website and they dont list specifically for 5.4 Superduty, and dont say anything about the F150 one workin on the F250's. Hypertech makes a programmer for 5.4 SuperDuty's and on there dyno sheet it said the F150 n F250 are the same...

You should talk to Mike at 5 Star about a SCT tuner and custom tunes.

The tuner for the Superduty 5.4 is not listed but it is the same one as the one used for the F150. I had one and I used it on my Superduty 5.4.

I've heard of the Edge working for some guys but I have no personal experience with them. I have a Troyer tuned XCal2 and mainly use the 87 Performance tune. I love it.

I spoke to Edge a few months ago and their position was "it might work but no guarantees" - in other words, no.

They have a newly announced touchscreen line that, if memory serves, claimed upcoming support for my '01 F250/5.4 in the announcement email. As of today, however, they don't support any Ford products on the CTS or CS product.

The Touch Sceen Extreme product from SCT sure does look hot. I can't find any details as to support or release date, though.

That's odd. It worked on my truck. I sold it to a fellow with an Excrusion and it worked for him.

I used mine a few years back. They may have made some changes.

I have one on my truck it will defiantly work. I got it to adjust for my bigger tires since you can adjust it to recalibrate the speedo. Honestly there is very little increase in power, but it does readjust your shift points which a really like when i am pulling a trailer.

no i believe it my speedo was actually off more with stock tires then with the 35s but i have a set of stock tires for when i have to haul the horses real far so it is nice to have my speedo dead on with each set.

the other thing i forgot to mention is that it allows you to set max speeds and adjust the revlimiter so on the very rare occasion that i have to lend my truck to a whining family member i set the revlimiter low and the top speed to 65 then they complain that my truck was too slow and don't ask to use it again....


the other thing i have wondered about doing to protect it from being stolen is setting the idle rpm to 0 so it wont start. That would probably deter most theifs

Superchips makes a programmer for the 5.4 Super Duty I might do some research on. $340 bucks Turns out theres a lot of 5.4 SuperDuty owners that bought it and reviewed it on teh autoanything site...
