A lot of people here use Super Chips and others. I don't, but that is my choice. Just be careful about your warranty. Ford does NOT like chips, tuners, or black magic for making more power. Voids your warranty.

X2 on not killing your warranty. They WILL know if you do anything to it. Warranty goes? MORE POWER!! Lol

federal law states the addition of aftermarket parts can not in and of itself be the cause for voided warranty. Are you saying that Ford usually finds away to void the warranty when using aftermarket products? The truck run wonderfully, hate to have a warranty issue yet would love to attempt to improve fuel economy and power

I think it falls into changing what the truck was originally designed to do. One simple way to tell is to call your dealer and see how friendly they are about it. Some will some wont, like anything else in life. But I'm betting they say no. It's worth a shot. You could always do it anyway and take it off if you need service. Your call in this poker game. Good luck!

If it alters the performance of the vehicle. HP,tq,ride hight,wheel size,ect. They will not cover any warrenty that the altercation may affect

Welcome aboard!!! I'm with some of the other opinions regarding chips. I had my 02 PSD for 7 years and 165,000 miles with no mods. I'd rather "leave it as it is" rather than cause a problem later.
