Install was simply plugging it in. No mount included so I would advise getting one. I found a bulldog BDX for ~$25. Uploads take awhile but everything works as promised. Can definitely fell and see the difference with the tunes. And no need to leave the tuner plugged in after tune uploaded unless you want to use it to display info. Great product. Checks off all the boxes without breaking the bank. Very light weight.

I really love the SCT bdx tuner. SCT has made great tuners for a long time. The 5-star custom tunes is a must. Great power and great shift points. Its much faster and shift better than stock. Stage3motorsports ship this to me very fast. If I see something on this site again, I want hesitate to order.

The tuner is pretty straight forward and simple. Easy to update and download tuners from 5star. I’ve have really only played with my 87 perf/tow so far and just now switched to my 87 eco. No issues, just trying to find a happy middle ground with my weekly long commutes.

Customer Question Is there an Eco tune available for 87 or 89 - 2018 2.7L. I have only upgraded tires to 34" - is there a benefit to a custom tune vs just recalibration for tire size? I'm more interested in preserving fuel economy than boosting performance?

Asked by: Michael - 5/20/2023
Customer Answer For 18 and newer vehicles it is very hard to improve on the economy that ford achieved, in older vehicles there is a lot more room for improvement. In your case the main benefits would be performance, changing the tire size to the correct size and getting the truck back to knowing what is going on will be the best for the economy.

Customer Question I’ve recently purchased the sct bdx for my 2016 2.7 eco boost. When trying to fill out the order form for the tunes my device came with it asks for the ecu strategy and ecu swpn but I’m only seeing ecm strategy and ecm swpn listed on my bdx under vehicle info.

Asked by: Blake - 12/2/2022
Customer Answer ECM and ECU are the same thing. There is no industry-standard designation for your truck's engine computer (Ford itself calls it a PCM). Use the ECM Strategy and SWPN for the form, and you'll be good.

Customer Question Can you still use your power train modes i.e. tow, sport…etc. or do the tunes override them all?

Asked by: jmp787 - 9/8/2021
Customer Answer The various drive modes will still work in that they'll still adjust tip-in and shifting. However, since the tunes themselves already overhaul your truck's throttle response, shift points, and other parameters there's less of a significant difference between all the modes, and you'll probably find yourself using them less.

Customer Question My custom tunes were for 285/70 tire size, and I upgraded my tires to 305/70. Can I change my tire size in the device myself or do I have to get new tunes written? If I can do it myself how do you do it?

Asked by: Wojo - 6/14/2020
Customer Answer As long as you do not have warranty tunes, you can do it yourself. To do it, plug your BDX into the truck and turn the key to "ON". Wait for the device to fire up, go to "Program Vehicle", confirm its info, skip the update and cloud tunes feature, on the "Customization Additional Tune Options" go to "change", scroll to "tire size", and change the revs per mile for a 305/70 which can usually be found on the tire manufacturer's site or online calculators, then load the tune with the adjustments.

Customer Question Does this tuner show boost

Asked by: Jeff - 4/15/2020
Customer Answer It can. This device can show boot pressure on the 2.7L EcoBoosts, since that PID is output through the OBD-II port.

Customer Question Will these tunes take the my key settings off? IE speed governor. I am looking for alternatives as I have lost my extra key and don't want to buy one from the dealership. Not looking to go fast, but my 2016 2.7 stops at 80. Not good when passing,

Asked by: John - 5/8/2019
Customer Answer This device does not effect your keys and has no capability to program or remove keys. This device can adjust or remove your stock speed limiter, though we don't recommend taking your truck beyond 125mph, as that's about the limits of your factory driveshafts. If you're looking for lower-cost key replacements, get in touch with a local automotive locksmith.

Customer Question The custom tune form asked about the tire size. If I use stock tire size when I apply for my custom tunes, Do I have to get new custom tunes when I upgrade to a bigger size tire?

Asked by: Daveman12 - 2/10/2019
Customer Answer On non-warrantied tunes, you'll be able to change your truck's tire size yourself. On warrantied tunes, you'll have to let us know so we can have 5-Star write you new tunes.

Customer Question As for the Warranty, does it cover the truck if I/you install any other aftermarket upgrades? I.E. cold air intake, exhaust, intercoolers, downpipes?

Asked by: Baer - 1/28/2019
Customer Answer It covers performance parts that we carry on the site that don't require retuning. For parts that require a retune (like downpipes), we only cover catted downpipes that must be purchased from use and you have to use a retune from 5-Star Tuning.

Customer Question What are the key differences between this programmer and the Livewire option? Is it just the screen and mount, or is there a performance difference?

Asked by: Baer - 1/28/2019
Customer Answer The Livewire has a touchscreen and slightly different menu format due to having a touchscreen. Its screen is also larger than the BDX. However, there's no real difference in device speed, navigation or tune upload times.

Asked by: connor - 12/22/2018

Customer Question I purchased the BDX Tuner with 3 tunes. My device was delivered, but I don't see the tunes listed anywhere with the device. How do I get the tunes I ordered with the device?

Asked by: Tom - 10/31/2018
Customer Answer 5-Star's custom tunes do not come preloaded on the device. You need to fill out one of our Custom Tune Forms, and once that is received by 5-Star will make your tunes and then send you a link to download them from a Google Drive folder.

Customer Question Will this tuner allow me to calibrate my speedometer to match oversized tires? If not, do you have a recommendation for a product that will provide custom tunes and speedo calibration for a 2017 F150 with 2.7L EcoBoost? Thanks.

Asked by: Danimal - 6/5/2018
Customer Answer This device can adjust your F150's PCM/speedo settings for larger tires.

Customer Question how does the warranty work mile wise?

Asked by: mike - 4/30/2018
Customer Answer The warranties cover your truck up until your odometer hits the mileage limits of the warranty. For example, if your truck has 20,000 miles on the odometer, and you purchase a 5-year/60,000 mile warranty, you effectively have 40,000 miles worth of warranty coverage.
