F150 Ecoboost tune
- Thread starter 94_Vert
- Start date
My dad recently bought a F150 with the 5.0 which I really like. If I was in the market for a truck right now, I would strongly consider getting one with the EB.
EcoBoost engines are basically like diesels. You can add substantial performance from just a tune.
I want a new f150 so bad, with possibly a ecoboost setup. But I would just feel crappy voiding my warranty with a tune lol. Already did that with the cobra when it was new.
The EcoBoost motor is the real deal and responds to tunes and mods almost as good as a diesel. I absolutely love mine and enjoy picking on all other brand 1/2 ton trucks on the road 
450 hp and 500+ ft lbs to the wheels changes some peoples minds about a little old v6!

Just wait for the 2015 with aluminum saving 700lbs + ecoboost...that thing will fly for a truck
If only you could get them to sound good lol
Its why i love mine. Waiting till warranty is up to tune it.
LOL at diablosport claiming those kind of gains.
OP, put the reefer down and do more research please. Look up Livernois and MPT. Those are the tuners for EBs and are much better options for tuning. That diablosport "canned" tune won't come close.
I love how they took a stock Ford promo photo and photoshopped a banner on the windshield.

I second the Livernois tune. With just the 87 tow it is night and day from stock and the 93 tow is night and day from the 87 tune.
The main thing that worries me about the ecoboost, I can get past the horrible non truck like exhaust note, is the maintenance/repair cost/durability once the miles start racking up.
Livernois tuned here. Truck hauls ass for what it is. Changed out the down pipe and left the stock exhaust, doesn't sound bad and adds about as much tone as you'd want to not sound ricey. Still not a V8 however.
I would strongly urge you to sit back and wait for feedback on our tunes before calling BS. The gains are legit, and repeatable from truck to truck.
2 of our local Beta testers were running multiple tunes from the guys who are the go to EcoBoost tuners, and none of them wanted to go back to those tunes when they got their trucks back from us.
We spent the time and did it right, and the results will speak for themselves
Pretty sure it has more to do with F/I than diesel fuel.
Now, if they could hold up to the same power numbers as a diesel (based on percentage of increase over stock), then that's a stout motor.
I'd beta test for you if you need it! I have quite a bit of data between tunes i've recorded and would love to compare!
I am well acquainted with diablosport. Used them on my srt4 and now my 5.0. They have a dyno sheet listed on their site that shows gains, not sure what else you want them to show.
Honestly, who cares if they photo-shopped a pic for a marketing email. :shrug:

I will sit back and wait. I do know that my 5.0 didn't gain near the numbers claimed when I tested the preloaded tunes for the short time I had an inTune.
I have used 4 different tuners for my EcoBoost F150 and have had the best experience with Torrie@Unleashed. He always responds to request and logs very promptly and makes revisions long after the sale. With his legendary status in the Viper and Ford GT world, I'm very confident in his abilities with my truck.
