Sweet truck. I have a 14 f150 sunset metallic with same rims as you. Yours looks badass bro.
Thanks boss!
My truck warranty is already gone brotha, does it matter if I tune it? I really don't care if it gets aggressive.
If you not worried about warranty then you can tune if you want too
Sweet truck man!
Seems like everybody does the .50 cal bullet antenna (I got it too).
I went mostly AFE with my truck.
1. AFE- Throttle body spacer
2. AFE- Cold air intake
3. AFE- Y pipes w/o cats
4. AFE- Atlas 4" exhaust
&
5. Turbosmart- Blow off valve
I'm looking to getting an oil catch can, ugraded intercooler, and tune the truck.
It's already a different beast compared to stock but I want this truck to be at its best.
Let me know about any other upgrades you do.
Title should be " If you're broke don't tune your f150" lol
😂. Big Facts
PowerAddiction makes me feel good, when I’m gone still be truck guy and gals!
Which is most Americans as we all Finance the vehicle. If you could truly afford it you pay cash.
Dumb question but just curious. Is it possible to tune a ford truck to match the new Shelby f150 specs??
Well, if you're broke then you can't really afford an F-150, right?
If someone is worried about the price of 93 octane gas they have no business buying a $30-60k truck
I bet you sleep with your cousin.
@@justinmacd859 look who is talkin
They got plenty of business
@@justinmacd859 you're mad cause you're poor
@@glynch1263 lol eh what ever helps you sleep little ladie ..
4 years later the cost of regular fuel now cost what you once paid for 93 octane. 4 YEARS LATER. Oh look who's been in office? Nvm
Actually, brother....the tuning will NOT void the warranty. There were lawsuits against it.
I’ve learned in my old age to just leave it alone or it will cost you even more later
That's what I told a kid I work with. He tinkers and messes with his truck all time and brags about it. I told him hell I bought mine the way I like it from the dealer just to drive I don't need all that flashy crap.
Great video. A lot of people wouldn't even consider that added cost after a tune. I wasn't and am glad I watched this video. Not sure I was going to tune it, but definitely am not doing it now. And yes, the 3.5 is fast for a truck.
Glad you found the video helpful. Some tuners like 5* do offer warranties but there still always risk they may not pay up. Precitae you watching
Before I even watch Tune = Transmission blowing up. Then warranty. Blown transmission with no warranty = don't do it. If you're going to tune have a lot of money wait for the warranty to expire, then build the transmission for max power.
I bought mine used and it's way past warranty. I'm tuning! lol
I got a 19 Platinum 3.5EB and definitely doing cold air and maybe a few others. Not doing tires until these factory 20's go out lol
👌👌
My 2020 F150 came with 20's, and it's the one thing about the truck that I definitely don't care for. Can't wait to downsize to 17s with 285/r17 tires. I know larger wheels are kind of thing these days, but when it comes to trucks, less wheel and more tire is definitely my preference.
Tunning a *automathic* TRUCK with big ass rims and complaining about it.... cmmon man
Maybe if u didn’t have mud terrain tires you’d have a easier time stopping
I mean just untune it……they can’t trace it
$55 for a half tank at 93 said that’s expensive. Geez Lord I would love to pay $55 for a half tank at 93 but I guess that depends if you have the larger 36 gallon tank or not and 339 for premium is a damn good price.
What some people fail to realize...decreasing line pressures and letting the gears slip with the tolerance allowed by ford and most manufacturers to make transmissions "shift smoothly" is why transmissions dont last long anymore.
If anything...a performance tune that makes the line pressures increase and the trans gears lock in more aggressive...all of that is actually helping to increase the life of the transmission.
FYI- if your shifts are abrupt with the tune, you did not get a good tune. there is plenty of logic in the tuning parameters of TCU to moderate shift firmness based on engine load. most tuner shops do not know how to properly tune the TCU with the ECU. I have no problems with shift abruptness during normal driving and with high performance tune. Additionally, if you are not putting your foot in the the throttle and in normal drive mode, normal driving, your performance tune should not be using any more fuel than a stock tune. learn a bit about EFI tuning and tuning maps, and you will understand why. this is not the golden old days of carb vehicles and linear fuel delivery. BTW nice looking F150.
We might help the College’s rules on 2024!
At least you uave 93 octane. Here in cali we have e85 though and there is a station 100 yards from my work with e85. Its tempting since the 3.5 EB is a beast on corn juice... Nice vids and nice truck. Keep it up!!!
Christopher Rea thank Bro glad you like the content man. Yea I heard the 3.5 is a beast in E. Maybe cheaper too than getting a tune
I just love how badass that truck looks man. Love the simplicity yet badass 👌
Preciate it boss! Exact look I was going for. Simple and clean. Glad you enjoy the content
It sounds like he doesn't want power.
Extended warranty = wasted money
Great video man . I always finance my trucks and i was very curious about warranties . How bout adding a air intake.
I don't believe a CAI will void warranty but could be wrong. Check online to see what others have said
I love that model....what year (and trim package) is that truck. She’s mean!!
Its a 2015 xlt 4x4 Sport edition. So everything it color matched (bumpers etc)
KickinItWithQ yeah that’s sick homey!
KickinItWithQ mines a 2016 XLT FX4 package with the 5.0 tuned as well 😂 and gas is pricey 😂
😂. Lol it’s hard to keep your foot out of it with the tune lol.
Anyone with mud tires don't no need for a tune it's just rhetoric
I would have to disagree, depending on the tune you use. Mercedes lost this battle in 2009 when they tried that and ending up paying. Where I agree is that tuning an Eco-boost is problematic due to the cam sensors and the direct-inject pre-fire issues they have. Get the Coyote, at 200k your bottom end will be bulletproof whereas the Eco will need a total new rotating assembly.
Precitae the information boss! Yes definitely will depend on the tuner you go with. Precitae you watching
I agree, Echo boost engines really should be left alone. Not that there over complex but they are and not mechanically but the balance they have between Fuel economy, Drivability, and longevity.
@@redgator7250 what are you saying?? Wtf
@@arizonacolour8793 he doesn't know, and neither do we! Lol
I think hes saying with the extra design and components already added to the ecoboost twin turbo engine, adding new components is risky. Probably better to replace old parts with new ones for that engine style.
I don't think you were loosing traction at 70. I think the transmission was slipping. 😂
Lol yup same thing I was thinking
thats correct
I don’t get filling the truck at half tank versus a full tank. There is no difference regarding the amount of money you’re spending on gas. Your spending the same amount, just filling the tank more often. Why not then just fill it when your a quarter tank down. Your fuel bill will be even less...
I’ve been doing it since high school lol. Mainly for me mentally it’s seems easier on the pockets. I can stomach 40-50 week but 100$+ to fill up just hits me soul lol
That red truck looks amazing. Nice choice.
Thanks boss! Preciate you watching!
I test drove one of these and it seemed fast enough stock.
They are fast stock so imagine it being tuned! Thing hauls!
KickinItWithQ It never get old smoking a Ram Hemi from a stop light with a baby Boosta.
F165 😂. Facts. Your V8 sounds good but bye bye lol
@@blackericdenice
I smoke diesel , tundras , and chevys in my Ford F150 3.5L
It's tuned, with full bore/polished manifolds, stage 2 turbos, and 4" MBRP Exhaust.
It's so cute when they try... Then I pass em and they cry.
I'll be hitting 550hp soon ... And I'm on 35" bfg's
@@goldenratio5117 I will believe you when I see a video.
im in markey for a 2015 2016 f150 with sport appearnce. is the 2.7 reliable? really want a local blue one but i heard 5.0 is way to go?
I have 3.5 not. 2.7 so far my mine hasn’t given me any issues. If I had to choose between 2.7 and 5.0...I’d choose the 5.0 but you gotta do what’s best for you
It’s a cool fact!
We might’ve helped. But, we don’t care for ads for a meeting list on Google.
Ford has to prove without any doubt that the tune was the sole problem to any warranty claim, harder than you would think. On my old f150 ecoboost I chewed through my rear end, replaced under warranty with the tune still loaded
Nice!! And yes I heard that too
Should've gone with a Lund Racing tune...shifts like butter 😂 Lund Racing is the best Coyote 5.0 tuner in the game hands down, and pretty much has all the records for stock ECU/PCM vehicles.
My Omega flex tune on my 2018 5.0 makes the truck shift nice, not too aggressive and better than stock which seemed to often not know what gear it was supposed to be in. Now if I put it in SPORT mode, then the shifting gets very firm and abrupt as you state, but in regular mode it's a nicer daily driver. All depends on your tuner..they can adjust it however you want it to be.
Kevin Breese Facts!
Befor I tuned it I would have to pay 150 for 35 gallons.. but now that I tuned it I pay like 80 dollars but I get 100 miles less then what I use to get.. it’s good and bad..
You have to buy the right tune. I’m tuned with OZ tuning. I can run 87/89/93 or E85 at any point. I can mix octanes an everything. It’s an expensive tune but worth every penny.
did it clear up any sloppy shifts?
Bull Chiitttttt,,,,, I'm sitting inside a dealership right now,,, worked in them for 30yrs.... We see tuned cars trucks all the time,, if you get your warranty voided then you've screwed up something pretty bad other than just having aTune.....
bruh, 49 seconds into a video.......and there is a first FALSE statement. "Tuning your F150 will void your warranty" Uhm, no, it DOES NOT void your warranty. I just got hooked up with a "too good to be true" at first tune, but after researching it and getting in contact with some legit users, I am goin to become a retailer of this tune. And guess what? It DOES NOT void ANY warranty. Now, the matter might be of you chaps not knowing about this tune, just like i didnt before. But after buying an 04 Lariat and driving for 2 days........I VERY quickly realized that I am not willing to pay for fuel for this heartless thing. i averaged 33.2L/100km strict stop and go, needs spark plugs, i am suspecting tires being low, but anyways, if I do plugs and tires, it will still be rape at the pump. Reason why I did by the Lariat, is because i had one few years back, and that one burned 12.8L/100km, due to both manifolds being blown I guess in PERFECT spots and CE light was one for both O2 sensors with "running lean" codes. But nobody believed me the mileage I was getting, but I didnt care, it was awesome. So, back to the point. Ans hey, I do not intend to bash You here by any means, or to market this tune. I will post video and share actual results, if it works, this tune should come stock really.
I disagree I know some people that have got away with warranty work with a tune now if your a new truck warranty from ford or a dealer yeah prob screwed but I bought a 2014 and got the bumper to bumper through the bank and I’ll be fine with any warranty work
Because you'll out run Chevy, and dodge, Toyota and many others. 😂
A voice of reason. Excellent points, including the warranty and the extra cost of 93 octane. In Northern Alberta Canada right now we are paying $5 USD per US Gallon ($1.66 CAD per Liter) for 93 octane and $4.25 USD for regular.
Weeeelll in Ms, AL and Fl. I travel these states every two weeks the highest I have seen for premium is $3.36 and it coast me $101.87 for 30 gallons.
@@kuntrryboy7078 it’s .80 to $1 more for premium in ohio, right now regular is 3.36
I grew up in a time when tuning your vehicle meant adjustment of points, spark plug gaps and setting distributor properly. Now a fucking computer and a few taps on a keyboard does it all. Where in the Hell did we lose real car guys who could work on their own cars in the driveway.?
Wait a minute if these trucks are so " fast" factory, why are 90 percent of them tuned,I'm guessing factory 14.40 and up quarter mile time they have ,there slow...
Good points, but with many new tuners you can simply reflash back to a stock tune before bringing the truck in for a recall at the dealership etc... So it doesn't necessarily void your warranty, you just can't go to the dealer with the tuner/tune installed lol
Eliminator Performance hey man Precitae you watching yes true, but the ecu will or can show that there was changes made if Ford really wants to look into it. That’s why I mentioned “ways to hide it” but it’s still a risk. I was mainly coming from standpoint of if you blow your engine while it was tuned. Precitae you watching!
I flashed mine back to stock twice and it worked !
Why am I watching this, my shit got 135k miles, even the dealer is like "do it pussy"!!!!!! Thanks for the video, man. Which headlights you got?
1st what programmer do you have?, 2nd who's your tuner?, Stopping will you do have big Tires and rims.
Yo! I have the SCT X4 programmer. I’m running More Power Tuning 93PRX Tune. The company is also just know as MPT. Yep bigger tires and rims makes it harder for me to slow down. If you are stock, won’t have an issue.
As far as legal liability... yes. With the technical part no, you are not right. Who will tune mostly? People who know about and at a degree of being tech - mid to high degree - Most definitely... Anyhow, thank you for your obvious liability stuff.
Yes on my mother-in-law bought a 2018 3.5 and it's only got 63 k mi on it right now and she gave 66k for it
What size lift do you have ? That’s a great truck do you like the eco boost better than the 5.0
6in lift. I’ll say this the only thing I prefer is the V8 sound. Otherwise I’d choose ecoboost and I actually just made my ecoboost sound really cool. It’s really a personal preference thing. V8 is tradition ecoboost is future
Your truck should pay for itself + gas and insurance for the year. If not you should own a car.
I tune my f150. I did a e85 tune by FRT and I love it.. more speed less gas but pay less..
So, So, video should have just gave your from decending order would have made a much better video. Please stop telling people about the costs if they are living paycheck to paycheck because of their ride then they are IDIOTS there is no help for them. Vehicles, gas and oil if the owners figured out how to make payments for a vehicle they need to figure out on their own how to pay for extras.
Tune it , stock sucks and as long as you remove the tune prior to taking truck to dealership you wont loose your warranty ... Night and day all for the better ... unless you like being a grandpa .. TUNE it
Just paid 800 plus tax for a tune. Also 145 bones to fill my tank at 4.30 a gallon for 93.
Yea this is false. The Magnuson protection act protects you against this. You can tune your truck all you want. If something goes wrong the manufacturer would have to prove that the performance upgrade was the direct reason for the issue. Otherwise your warranty has to follow through.
Thanks for the transparency! I don’t think I’ll tune my truck just yet. Great vid! ✌️
No problem! Glad to share. Precitae the support!
It's not dont tune your vehicle its dont get cookie cutter off the shelf tunes. If you want a real tune get a tuner on your vehicle and it will drive like stock, make the most power and return better than stock fuel mileage. Not individual tunes, all at once.
Get in good with your dealer. It doesn’t matter if it’s tuned or not. It’s up to the dealer if they except to do the warranty work. All manufactures ask for on major “warranty claims”. Is pictures of the damage and info on vehicle. It’s up to the dealer to tell the manufacture if it’s been tuned or not. A dealership can re flash your ecu. They can work around almost anything the manufacturer wants to know via phone or email.
Thanks for the info buddy. Great video as always
Precitae the support man!
Basically go nowhere fast. My 3.5 is plenty fast and pulls a trailer with no issues. The Dodge guys don’t like me at red lights.
Prairie Strong66 I know what u mean. I make lots of civic and small car guys mad too
Jake thequadrunnersnake haha I figured out the other day that my stock 3.5 can run with a v6 challenger, 3 red lights and he could never get passed me.
I own a 5.9 Dodge dually Cummins And a 2023 3.5 eco boost . 3.5 is a joke so what was trying to pull a Dakota ??
who's watching in 2022 an heard 107 to fill up an thought that was cheap mine cost 120 min to fill up
Our 87 is more than that it’s 3.59 hahaha I would kill for 93 at 3.39
My 5.0 cost me about $140 to fill up the 36 gal tank
Love the truck, but Uh well… anytime you put a lift on a truck you’re supposed to upgrade at minimum rotors and pads. Also when doing this put a higher gearing in to take the load off your transmission. You are adding more rotating mass to the drive line and losing a lot of power. No way that truck is putting 430 to the pavement.
Sup Mr Q...thanks for your time and this video! I subscribed due to your video exit words...peace!
titanium man what’s sup man! Thanks for the sub and coming to KickinItWithQ! I appreciate the support and glad you enjoyed the video!
you should buy tunes from an actual tuner not generic online American Trucks chips
I feel people who make videos like this just don't want you coping them
Sup Q!!!! I got a 2015 f150 xlt crew cab 5.0. I have left engine alone other than c pipe with 2 borla a types with dual exhaust. I'm on fence about tuner but only other thing I'd add would be a cold air intake. Now when I get my long tube yes. I do want raise my speed limiter.i just got rid a fully custom truck. I want a vehicle that can be worked on by anyone anywhere. So I'm going hold off. I'm subscribed.
Thank for the sub man and coming to KickinItWithQ lol! Oooo I bet that sounds nice! Definitely miss my V8 sound for sure. Yea I don’t want to “over modify “ my truck as like you said. I want to be able to take it anywhere for service. Preciate you watching and glad you enjoy the content
It's not how you stand by your car. It's how you race your car
Yo Q i love your content brother, I was wondering if you recommend upgrading to cool air intake on a 3.5 ecoboost ? Keep up the great work
Yes definitely do it I went with S&B cold air intake
Must be nice to have 93 octane. In Dumbf*ckistan (California) we're saddled with 91 octane as "premium".
Yeah, a few other states are like that as well
Hey Ford boyz FYI buy a 2019 to present f150 v 8 with a 3.73 gear and 10 speed trans just put e85 in it at 2 bucks a gallon it will tune itself to a 40 hp increase This is coming from a RAM guy just trying to give u a chance
john doe 😂. For sure!
Reliability and gas milage are sacrificed for egos.
After warranty do whatever you want to do and in warranty I agree. I had a 07 F150 5.4 CAI superchips tune on 91 woke this thing up but it was bought used and out of warranty. Here in Canada the POS Justin is taxing fuel a insane amount went back to 87 and de tuned a daily driver. Upgraded to a 2017 5.0 this thing day and night from the 07 the ride and the power 87 more HP yeah progress. Yeah out of warranty you know the more you drive it it starts to feel slow but hell keeping it stock a factory ram air intake yeah it has a intake silencer but who cares I could put a K&N filter in but at 57 swapping out a filter is the ticket. Just keep up the maintenance a daily driver stock will get you to work every day It was made this way for a reason a daily driver not a sport truck you want a sport truck get a Shelby.
Nice truck Q, just bought a sct bdx tuner for my 2014 f150 Ecoboost 3.5. bought the truck used with a 4 year warranty. Having second thoughts about installing it. If something happens to the truck will it void the warranty? Even though it's a used truck. It's pretty quick now , cat back exhaust and roush cold air intake. Installed by previous owner.
miketr732 it depends. If ford can prove the tuned caused the issue then it will void warranty. Now if you AC stops working or window won’t roll down that you should be covered. Tune shouldn’t impact that. Most warranties only cover powertrain components so you have to see what yours covers. If transmission goes and they can prove the tune caused it then you probably out of luck.
@@KickinItWithQ ok thanks for fast reply.
miketr732 no problem. You’ll get a million different answers depending on who you ask. My advice is always be prepared for the wrost.
Ok q , I just installed the tuner. What the hell, lol. And I'm glad I did really woke up that engine. I did the 91 octane, and cold air intake. And removed the top speed govener, . Gas is cheap here in Jersey 2.86 for 93 octane. Thanks for your help .
We liked your Red Truck!
Thanks 🙏🏾
You are welcome.
Y’all paying 3.40$ a gallon for 93 octane? I’m in the wrong state, I’m paying 3.40$ for 87 in Cali😂
😂😂 man cali is crazy! Good to visit but cost of living ridiculous
No tune for me but I did put a Pedal Commander in mine, love the no lag throttle response, goes well with my cold air intake and dual exhaust.
Yea I hear good things about the pedal commanders
Pedal commander doesn't get rid of any lag. It just makes your throttle pedal more sensitive just like putting it in sport mode.
I was wondering this very thing. Instead of tuning my f150 a pedal commander would do basically the same thing?
Nah tune is completely different
Thanks for the info. You just answer all my questions about tuning my truck. I really like to comfort of the stuck ride.
Glad the video helped and thanks for watching
Screw warranty i am the warranty lol on my 240, mile 5.4
Ford couldnt fix my intake manifold. 5 star fixed it instantly saving me literally thousands. You warranty is crap anyways.
Fuck gas is cheap down there, big block baby
Sweet truck!! Getting my 7.3 next week. It will be the first vehicle that I have ever owned that will remain stock. For what they cost now. I am not messing with it.
Nice! The Tremor Right?
True dat. Im getting the f350 7.3 also so excited
Beautiful truck! My lil bitty 2.7 is plenty fast for me, but I’m old and tight! I love seeing the young folks tooling around in their lifted big tire trucks, when your young you can take bone jarring shifts and a stiff ride, but I still like looking at these machines! Great video!
Hahaha no question! I'm pretty young now and it can be a pain getting in and out lol! Def enjoying it while I have that young blood in me lol. Thanks for watching
Nothing wrong with a 2.7. With a good tune, the 2.7 hauls a** !
@@billymc2681 even stock, the 2.7 is fast!
The stock 2.7 is faster than a stock 3.5 and 5.0 sources for these times are from tfl
Im ok with stock 5.0 power. Im not tryna drag race anyone lol and 330-340rwhp is enough for me.
+MrInzombia 🤙🤙
Won’t lose warranty. Lol just tune the vehicle back to factory settings before you take it in.
Really?????
Good luck. I always lean on side of caution. Plus they can check the computer if they want. It’s a very murky topic just gave my opinion
1. Buy the 5.0 Coyote V8. 2. Use Hypertech, and only tune for adjusting your speedo/trans tor new tire size and gear ratio change. 3. If you want to go fast, buy a sports car, not a truck.
But it’s fun to go fast in trucks 😂
Best advice so far
Instead of a tune check out the ”pedal commander “
Greg Powell pedal commander cool but it’s not the same as a tune. Tune give way more benefits
Yes I agree but it gives people an option if the want a little more performance with out voiding the warranty
so what you are saying is that the custom fully built and blown coyote motor in my truck might not have warranty anymore.. dam it!
😂😂😂😂. Sorry 🤷🏽♂️
What's them gas prices now bro....Im good one TV at Tune....cmon Biden help
Lol like $4.50
Great video!! Love the truck. IMO that is my favorite F-150 front end. Just looks mean.
Fun watching this video today being gas is insane along with prices of automobiles. My my how the times have changed…
