will this programmer work with a 2014 F150 with an Ecoboost V6? How much of a difference will I see? I am looking for better MPG

Yes it will but you will need to download the program into the programmer. I have a Mac so I had to send it back to hypertech and they loaded it for free but I had to pay shipping. I loaded the premium fuel program and yes you will see a very significant difference. I have seen no improvrmnt in fuel economy one way or the other. Power gain is significant though.

It did work on my 2014 F150, however I did not find much difference in performance or mileage. My friend recommended the Superchips product and I tried it an it seemed to have better performance and increased MPGs. Just my experience take or leave it.

I cannot speak for your engine, however with my 5.3, even with the program now removed. I still have to run 93 octane to keep the truck from skipping. Didn't do that before the programmer. Get a custom tune. You'llBe much happier

if there is a better chip, I'm not aware of it . I have a 2500hd with a 6.0 L gas motor, K&N air box and filter. I programmed the chip for Towing. It definitely added Throttle response. But I can't say Ive noticed any mileage improvements. With the performance enhancements I think I drive the Truck a little harder. Also the chip requires premium fuel. Bottom Line if your trying to save money on fuel you'll probably be disappointed.

Yes it does,do yourself a big favor and buy this programmer,it is unreal !!! I have been so happy with both power and mpg

I have a 2012 F-150 Ecoboost with an AFE intake on it. I managed to pick up about 2 mpg on the highway with the SCT tune. That's the performance tune, not the economy one. In town, I haven't noticed much but I also have a heavy foot so I'm not surprised.I'd gauge your potential mileage based on your driving style. If you're in town and heavy on the pedal, it might actually get worse or just not improve. If you're doing more highway and you know how Cruise Control works, you will probably pick up a few MPG. A recent trip from Chicago to Michigan had me doing 22mpg, better than my truck has ever gotten before. That was with the cruise locked in at 75 most of the way, running 93 octane and the performance tune. I have a 2012 F-150 Ecoboost with an AFE intake on it.

I returned my truck to factory settings passed emissions w\o a problem and then returned it to the high performance settings. Its quick and easy. I didn't want to chance taking the test with altered settings.

I didn't have any luck with it on my 2010 JK it was very frustrating. I didn't notice any performance or economy difference. It did mess up my idle and low rpm it would miss and sputter after downloading the software.

None, after running it for a while, what fealt like a gain was not, dyno showed same results a a drop in performance filter. Also mileage dropped, to 25 mpg from 29 mpg. I recently returned car back to stock, power is the same, fuel economy back up. Only positive thing about this unit is price, and sound. I had the Mopar unit, prior to this, and a K&N; as well, money wise, lesson learned just buy a K&N; replacement filter and save some time and money. On a side note if you are looking for bling and nice tone from engine, then the unit is worth it.

The programmer was good in the beginning, the transmission shifted perfectly towing my 5th wheel but later on it caused My engine to stall. I called the support guys and they had never heard of that problem before but there seems to be issues with edge programmers and ford trucks. I am currently shopping for a different programmer.

The cortex is more for trucks that still have factory warranties. they offer other programmers that are cheaper, however I don't have one bad thing to say about the programmer. When it's in performance mode it's all out balls to the wall, mpg mode I gain a few mpgs if I can keep my foot out of It. I don't use the tow mode so I'm no help there but for a plug and play it's worth the money. Change trans pressures shift points del mph gov. Most of the time mine is on 93 performance mode and I also have a lil work done to the motor 2012 5.3 haven't been beet by a hemi yet

Hi Brody,As a rule the answers is yes to the Turbo Boost and *Fuel Pressure (*May require EAS add-on). I would need to know your application to be 100% sure, the PID's readings do change on some applications.Hope this helps, feel free to give me a call if you need more information,Thanks,DaveMONSTER PERFORMANCE870-580-0940

I have a 99 Silverado 1500 5.3L and i was getting 18 MPG. However i put a 6" lift with 35" tires on it. My MPG dropped down around 13. After i put the programmer on i usually get 15 MPG driving conservatively. However, after i perform a oil and oil filter change, and clean my K&N; air filter i will get a high 17 MPG for several fill ups then it starts dropping to 15.

Yes it does, my F150 has that engine. However you will need to download an "update" to the program unit but it is easy to do and the procedure is explained in the instruction sheet. You will need a computer connected to the internet to do the job. I do recommend this product.

I have an 09 f150 with the 5.4. I've got the Edge CTS, a K&N; CAI, throttle body spacer, and custom exhaust. If I drive with a light foot I see anywhere from 15-17 city and I've gotten 23 hwy with it set to "economy." On the hwy though, anything above about 70 MPH and you won't see that good. I did tow a 4 place Seadoo trailer from CA to Utah and was getting 19 mpg using the "towing" program. The programmer is compatible with the K&N; intake. When you run the setup you can select between a couple different CAI's and it will configure the tune for it. Overall I'm pretty happy with it and seen 3-4 mpg increase on both city and hwy. Hope that helps. I have an 09 f150 with the 5.4. I've got the Edge CTS, a K&N; CAI, throttle body spacer, and custom exhaust.

I use it on a 04 Tahoe w/ 5.3.... I run the performance program most of the time because it seems to have the best mileage and performance overall.. I did run the mileage program recently on a 800 mile trip and I got about 2 mpg better than the Performance program, but the responsiveness was definitely not there. for any type of towing use the tow setting.. I've tried towing even a light trailer with a couple of quads and I get a check engine light.. When you scan for codes it shows a lean fuel code for whatever reason.. Never had that happen with the Tow program..

I used this in a stock 2006 f250 v10. It seemed as though I got some power increase, but I didn't notice any significant change in mpg.

Hi Dave:Sorry, but it won't; it claims to be able to work on any OBD1 or OBD2, but it only works on the OBD2 cars... for the life of me, I couldn't get it to work on my 1990 Ford F-250; I can't even get onto their site, to look for software...
