So I ordered a superchips 1840 flashpaq. Now where do I go to get tunes, I want a towing, performance and highway economy tunes, and I got couples things added to the truck that they should consider in the tunes.. thanks!

You have to wait until it shows up. Then you plug it into the truck and it downloads some info from the ECU. Then you plug it into your computer and it gets the tunes for your truck.

IMO you would have been better off going with 5 Star. I had a Flashpaq. After waiting a week for a tune that supposedly the engineers were working on I sent it back.

I'm very happy with my SCT X4(tunes by MPT). Hope you have good luck with the flashpaq.

Your CAI shouldn't make a difference.
Your throttle body spacer does nothing for performance so it is not an issue.

The only reason you might need a custom tune is if you remove cats and/or o2 sensors. You should be able to call the folks at Superchips for a more definitive answer.
The guys from 5 Star may be able to give you a better answer. Shoot them a PM.

Ok so the 5 star tune tell me more. you tell them what you have as in the mods you have done to your expedition and they build you a custom tune for make and model?
I'm not understanding?
