He has a 150 or atleast that's what his profile says.

Although I usually say go with something that you can get custom tunes with really no matter what the engine is. More often then not, they do better for the truck then an off the shelf tuner can.

They are all similar in cost - around $400.

Based on all the reviews I've read, my top choice is the Edge/Gryphon custom tuned by PHP. Here's their forum: http://forum.gopowerhungry.com/

SCT is another good choice and there are several tuning shops for it too.

There's an active forum at F150online. Hop over there and read the reviews, problems, etc.

It will work for a 97-03 4.6l, 5.4l as well as many other Ford applications. You can get all the specs as well as the users manual to download so you can be sure it is what you want from sctflash.com

If you want it, shoot me a message and we will work something out.
