Custom Tunes Only: This package does not include a tuning device. You must already own a compatible SCT or Bully Dog device to run 5-Star custom tunes on your vehicle.
5-Star's custom tuning provides your 2018-2020 F150's 5.0L V8 with some of the best bang-for-your-buck power gains on the market. Their custom tuning adjusts key parameters and tables within your F150's engine computer to crank out impressive levels of horsepower and torque without the need for any "hard" bolt-on performance parts. The increased power output is combined with 5-Star's carefully revamped transmission shift points and shift pressures to get rid of the noticeable hesitation of the 5.0L's stock tuning while holding gears longer to maximize power for just about any application. You get your choice of three 5-Star Custom Tunes that will be emailed to you for upload onto your SCT or Bully Dog device.
5-Star's tunes turn up your 2018-2020 F150 5.0L's power by adjusting its fuel curves, ignition timing, fan control, and a ton of other variables so that your truck makes huge amounts of horsepower and torque. 5-Star's custom tuning even takes into account tire size, drivetrain, and axle ratio so that your F150 operates perfectly with your choice of tune. 5-Star's custom tunes are available in several variations for 87, 89, 91, or 93 octane gasoline to give you a wide range of tuning options.
5-Star's Custom Tuning increases the horsepower and torque of your 5.0L V8 all throughout its rev range, giving your aggressive V8 truck a noticeable improvement in output whenever you step on the pedal. 5-Star's test truck put down 345 peak horsepower and 361lb-ft of peak torque using its factory tuning. With 5-Star's 93 octane Performance tune, their truck threw down 400 peak horsepower and 405lb-ft of peak torque, and increase of 55 horsepower and 44lb-ft of torque without any hard parts at all. The big power gains combined with 5-Star's revised transmission tuning can make your 2018-2020 F150 5.0L fly both on and off the road.

If your truck has Ford's latest strategy updates, we'll forward your information over to 5-Star and get your tunes created.6. Once 5-Star creates your tunes, you will be emailed a link to download them from our Google Drive.7. Download 5-Star's tunes to your PC and then load them to your tuning device using SCT's Device Updater Software.8. Now you can successfully load your 5-Star Custom Tune of choice into your Ford.
Warranty vs. Non-Warranty Tune Note: there is no difference in function, horsepower, or torque between Warrantied Custom Tunes and Non-Warrantied Custom Tunes. The only difference between the two, whatsoever, is that Warrantied Tunes will have less parameters (i.e. tire size, gear ratio, etc) open to end-user adjustment.
Off-Road Exhaust Systems: 5-Star can no longer provide custom tuning for off-road exhaust systems that delete catalytic converters. 5-Star can only tune for catted exhaust systems. However, 5-Star WILL NOT disable your rear oxygen sensors, which may result in a check engine light.
