I have a 2013 F150 5.0 with a KN&amp;N CAI installed. I'm wanting to know if this specific product will not only work but what an average mpg increase is?

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 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..

Yes my gas mileage increased 3.5 mpg at a the minimum. I probably would have gotten more but I have a heavy foot. I just sold my truck a couple weeks ago and no longer have any use for the superchip. If you want to purchase mine just let me know.... It's in perfect condition.

It performs great. Gas mileage wise, about 1-2mpg improvement as far as maintaining the MPG vs it varying with out it. Noise is minimal if you open the rear sliding glass. Also that noise is only at highway speeds. Otherwise you don't hear a thing. If you don't do the cut out as directed on the newer F150s it will move ever so slightly. Also, if it isn't tightened down all the way it can shift side to side at highway speeds. Hope this helps.

Hey there buddy it should be fine I have a k&n; intake and straight exhaust with a rebuilt heavy duty trans for towing. But otherwise a stock truck the tuner was designed for stock 5.9l Cummins stock 48RE and stock NV 5600 six speed manual. It adds great power! But not enough to destroy your transmission. Sorry for the long answer but it's better than a "yes" ahaha just buy it adds POWER and economy. Nothing to complain about or regret and that's from having it on for 12,000 miles on the highest hp setting. Great tuner!

Mpg won't really increase to make a huge difference. My silverado went up by maybe .5 mpg that's it.

On my 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee V8. I only noticed trying to save gas mileage only got 1-2 MPG improvement. The shifting does great and really smooth. I have a K&N; intake and still no performance difference. Idling was a little smoother. I have not tried the high performance feature. Towing feature does great lots of torque. Hope this is helpful.

First, the Superchips Vivid Linq does work with your 2013 F150 5.0L. As for mileage increases, results will vary depending on the vehicle and driver. I tell my customers that normally you will see about a 10% increase in mileage along with the increase in HP and torque. Some customers see more than that, and some claim they don't get that much.RobVehicle Programmers

I use it on a 2006 Chevrolet Silverado Quad Cab 4x4 Z71 5.3 and my fuel economy get increased on about 15% on regular fuel.

I installed this in my 1999 2wd 4door and you definitely feel a difference. It's best paired with an aftermarket exhaust system. Together, you get better throttle response, torque and a small increase in fuel economy. Unfortunately I can't provide numbers other than about 2 mpg better than when my truck was stock. Blazerforum.com has a lot of members that can help give you more accurate numbers if you need. Good luck!

Yeah I just bought this for my brother for Christmas. He has a 2007 5.3 sierra 1500. This is a awesome product. You should expect about 30 hp and 2 mpg more than stock. Main difference is in the transmission shift points it keep pulling through the gears. Unlike stock where the shifts are really smooth and you feel like your losing power. Also there are a ton of extra gauges and features to help track your trucks performance.

K&N; claims that it adds about 4-7 horsepower overall. I didn't notice a huge difference on my 2013 heritage as far as power goes. But it does look cool.

Yeah that is not normal and something is definitely wrong. When I installed it, it gave me a slight increase in mpg.

on fuel economy mode no change in mpg (same) i run now 87 performance what a power diference lower end gets a lot of kick ,it realy shows serious power on 93 performance but i dont want to run 93 because of $ per gal so you'll be happy with 87,i got that unit just for towing i tow 6 k boat than it burns less fuel and pulls way better up hill here in new england would highly recommend cortex (only) nothing else ,my last truck dodge ram with flushpeg waist of money no change in power stay away cortex kicks a.. Buy it and enjoy it

Gas mileage seemed to get better when on the highway. Took a trip a couple weeks after installation and got around 18.5 generally. The increase in torque was noticeable. Fuel mileage around town has stayed at 13 this winter however(cold climate).

I thought I might have seen a 1 mpg increase in the early months, but now I'm not sure if that was maybe due to something else. I haven't really seen anything that would indicate a significant decrease, either.Probably I'd say if there is a difference it's not much more than 1 mpg either way. I do mostly drive the truck around town, though and when I do take it on longer trips, I get away from using CA gas, which usually increases my mileage regardless of anything else due to lower ethanol content.

Well worth the money and the product does exactly what it states. Also keeping the stock tubes doesn't hurt the results. I added an exhaust, and a mass airflow chip and my total HE gains was about 68 HP. I have a 2013 300 with a 5.7 hemi. Gas mileage before was 13.8 and I can get the same while stepping on the gas. So it does help. If i drive my car normal I have increased my MPG by 4.3. Any more questions you can contact me directly at Justbecause246@aol.com.
