Hello everyone,
First post here, so bear with me. I had a 2001 Sport Trac XLT a few years ago, and traded it on a 2002 F-150 HArley DAvidson edition with the supercharged 5.4. Did lots of mods to it and ended with a truck that dynoed 423 RWHPO and 511 Fpt. LOTS of fun!!!! It was totalled in a tornado back in November, and I just recently purchased another sport trac to replace it. Got an AMAZING deal on an 05 XLT premium 4x4 which was originally purchased new in October and had less than 7000 miles on it.
Anyway, I am obviously missing some POWER now! I realize that short of adding a supercharger and spending big bucks it is never going to feel like my HD did. But, I would at least like to "liven" this trac up a little bit. Even in a SC'ed truck a programmer/tuner/chip was the most bang for the buck. What is the preferred one for the trac's? Also is there one that you can modify tire size to correct the speedo if you add larger tires?
I have seen a couple of intake kits, but they all say they fit up to an '03. any advice on which one to use on an '05?
Thanks in advance, and I have enjoyed reading the forums so far.
