My name is Mike Thornhill, I'm the owner here at MPT. We've been tuning Fords for more than 15 years now. This is what we do, day in and day out. Tuning and performance is our specialty. I know some people might be new to tuning and may even think it's snake oil. I can tell you after one minute of driving, you will know the MPT difference is very real. I encourage you to read reviews, browse this page and don't hesitate to contact us for any questions you may have. Thanks for checking us out. / Mike @ MPT
With this tune you are looking at huge increases in low end torque and acceleration, faster 0-60 times, quicker 1/4 mile results, shift points optimized with a focus on performance.
The shift points in normal mode will hit all 10 gears, with downshifts tightened up putting you in the right gear at the right time. This means power to the wheels when the driver demands it.
Sport Mode and Tow Haul mode retain most all of the positive features from Ford with minor tweaks to improve over all feel.
All driving modes drastically improve throttle response and feel, but click to Sport mode and this improvement is multiplied. Sport mode has a noticeable increase in throttle response above that of the already increased base mode. The PR-X tune is only available for premium fuels of 91 octane or better.
This tune has all the benefits of the above PR-X but has the trans setup very mild for those that prefer the stock feeling shifts of the truck.
The Daily-Tow Performance tune is a step down from PR-X. Designed to be a performance tune and a towing tune hybrid, the main difference is the peak boost. Peak boost is lower than PR-X but we were able to keep most of the improvements from PR-X. Throttle response and part throttle boost is still a drastic improvement over stock. This tune can be referred to as the "Street" or "Daily Driver" tune with a focus on all around performance but not so much that it is no longer a good idea to tow with it.
This tune has all the benefits of the above Daily-Tow Performance tune above but has the trans setup very mild for those that prefer the stock feeling shifts of the truck.
The concept behind this tune is to take the improved shifting of the PR-X tune but leave spark, boost and other items stock allowing them to adapt the fuel in the vehicle. Throttle response and part throttle acceleration will still have a noticeable increase over stock. This can be considered a trans-only tune.
Tuning should be your first modification. The biggest gains are delivered with MPT tuning. Most other modifications require no change to the MPT tune. The few modifications that do require MPT tuning can be adjusted for. There is no reason to wait for tuning until after other modifications. For many customers, MPT tunes are the only modification done to their vehicle and they often mention wishing they didn't wait. When driving MPT tunes, customers agree this is how it should have came from Ford.
MPT makes this process as easy as possible for you and for those that still need help or have questions, our tech support team is ready and willing to assist. This is one of the many reasons, MPT is the preferred tuning choice. The tunes will be sent in an email with easy to follow instructions explaining how to get them from the email to the tuner.
This is a tough question for us to answer for the simple reason that the dealership is a 3rd party. They can literally do whatever they want. We can't speak on behalf of a 3rd party. They can void your warranty for changing your air filter if they are feeling like being a d-bag that day. That being said, we tune these vehicles all day log and customers getting their warranty voided is not a problem we deal with. Our tunes are safe and effective to not cause damage that a dealership would blame on tuning. If this is a concern of yours, our only recommendation is talk to your dealership. Otherwise, simply reload the Ford stock file before going for service. Our general rule is after the 1st oil change you are ready for tuning.
Tunes, log reviews and tune updates are completed in order received. We cycle through them at a pretty good rate but obviously we don't want to go so fast that we make mistakes. Generally speaking, 3-4 business days is a good estimate. We do however have an option to skip to the front of the line. That service is referred to as Rush My Tunes and gets your tunes completed in 1 business day or less.
MPT has an online question form that gathers your information, details on your vehicle and lets you pick your tunes. It's referred to as the MPT Tune Form. Links will be in your confirmation email as well as this website near the top and bottom.
Above we have a nice section describing the tunes available.
OEM Spark plugs work just fine. Typically with plugs you'll know when it's time for a new set. The vehicle will start idling rougher than normal or you'll feel it cutting out while you are under boost. In that situation you will either re-gap the plugs or replace with a new setup.
No aftermarket modifications are required before you can use MPT Tunes.
MPT is proud of our reputation, while some tuners are known for blowing motors, MPT is known for quality tunes and customer service. Our goal is to deliver tuning that we can recommend with a good conscience. The tunes we sell have been dyno tested more than we want to admit, they have been emissions tested, they have been street tested. We run these tunes in our vehicles daily. PR-X is our preferred daily driver tune. Then on top of this solid base, we also offer data log reviews to confirm everything is good to go. This can help one find items that could contribute to issues if not resolved, such as low engine oil.
Absolutely not. It is More Power Tuning's (MPT) policy not to manufacture, offer for sale, sell, convey, or otherwise transfer any product, including Handheld Devices, Pre-Loaded Tunes, or Calibrations that contain features to bypass, defeat or render inoperative the following: EGR, Rear Oxygen Sensors, SCR, DPF, NAC, DOC, or any diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) associated with these emission controls. Products/Calibrations shall retain the full operation and functionality of the On Board Diagnostic System (OBD), will continue to satisfy emissions requirements, such as meeting standards within useful life or maintaining emissions performance outside useful life. MPT does not support modifications that remove or alter the emissions system of the vehicle. MPT will not shut off check engine lights caused by non-emissions compliant parts installed. MPT has proven night and day difference in power while conducting extensive emissions testing to document reasonable basis that the vehicle is not adversely affected.
Generally speaking, we easily get 100hp over stock. Our MPT Tunes make the most power we feel comfortable with for the type of tune it is. Our tunes that are designated for towing will make less power than MPT PR-X tune which is for performance. We have dyno graphs and information available for most tunes.
Premium fuel is recommended in general. Believe it or not, fuel octane make a big difference in power. The individual tune name will reference the octane fuel required for that specific tune. If a tune is written for 87 octane, you can use it with 87 in the tank or better. If the tune is written for 93 octane, you cannot use it with 87 octane in the tank. You must use 93 octane fuel with a 93 octane tune.
MPT conducts dyno research on all vehicles supported. Testing over and over until the best results are achieved while retaining safety of the engine. This is custom tuning. The tunes we email out have been custom tuned to the max, to take it even further than that though, we also offer data logging reviews. This process provides us with real-time data of your vehicle with our MPT tune. If we see any necessary changes, we will take that info and further customize the tune specifically for the vehicle. It's not uncommon that MPT recognizes mechanical issues in the data log and can help diagnose or point you in the right direction for resolving it.
We are proud of the hard work put into our MPT tunes, but we understand not everyone has the same personal preference. We offer 60 days of preference based changes. This allows the consumer to experience the night and day difference of MPT tunes first hand and then provide us with any feedback or notes for revisions. This 60 days also includes data logs to review the performance of the vehicle while tuned. Our ultimate goal is to make sure you are 100% happy with the MPT tunes. If you are not, then we want to know about it and fix it.
Yes, the Ford F150 Ecoboost 3.5 has a factory speed limiter. MPT Tunes can fix this and remove the speed limiter on the Ecoboost F150. MPT can raise the speed limiter to a set value or even lower the speed limiter.
Yes, 100%. MPT Tunes make a night and day difference on the 2017-2020 F150 Ecoboost Trucks.
