Engine Tuning

[MikeS3000]

Has anyone tuned their 2018 yet? I have a 2018 Expedition Limited and the only product I can find is a JMS Boostmax. I'm new to the Ford world. This is a piggyback tune and claims to add up to 5 psi of boost on 93 octane. Anyone tried this yet? I'm a much bigger fan of ECU flash tunes but can't seem to find any products.

Probably still a little soon but I’d keep checking with 5 Star and Livernois. I put a 5 Star 93 performance tune on my 17 and gained 6psi. Stock wot I was getting 14. After the tune I’m getting 20. AFR hovers between 10-11 the whole run so it’s a nice safe tune.

How does a tune effect Ford's warranty. I had a MB before my Expedition and I got in with a service advisor and he looked the other way when he could...

I’m thinking of the boostmax too, nothing to show up in the computer for warranty issues, and it seems to work pretty well on these engines.

very intriguing!! i tuned my explorer the week we bought it. i had to take it in for service twice for the PTU. Both times, i loaded the stock tune back up and there were no issues. but this seems pretty cool, to not even have to worry about it. im not as concerned with best performance possible since the expy is a boat compared to the explorer. that being said, i would love to have a few extra ponies under the hood, just to know they are there if needed. would like some more info on it. would love to see some A/F numbers.

Did anyone get the boostmax adapter?
If so how well did it work?
Was there a noticeable improvement in throttle response & overall drivability?
