2002 Ford V 10

My truck has plenty of power at the low end of the throttle. Half throttle or below. But above I do not see any gain. This really shows up towing heavy loads.
Is there anything that will improve this performance?
Thx Paul.

I would not describe my V10 that way. If it were me I would hire a mechanic with a quality scanner to watch whats going on while your driving. Maybe there is something wrong at the top end of your torque curve. If nothing is wrong then a tuner may be what you are looking for.

Paul,

Welcome to FTE.

Where do you live? How heavy a load are you towing, and in what kind of terrain? Is your truck bone stock? How many miles? And, perhaps most importantly, what is your axle gear ratio?
