Wake Up the Potential in Your 3.5L EcoBoost
If you own a 2018-2020 F150 with the 3.5L EcoBoost, you already know the truck has serious potential hiding under the hood. Ford gave it strong factory power, but there is still plenty of performance left on the table. The Phase 1 Performance Package is designed to unlock that extra capability without turning your truck into a complicated project. By pairing a high quality intake upgrade with proven custom tuning, this setup helps the engine breathe easier and respond quicker every time you press the throttle. The result is a truck that feels stronger pulling onto the highway, more responsive around town, and far more eager when you ask for full power. Whether you drive your F150 daily, tow a trailer on weekends, or simply want your truck to feel more alive, this package delivers a noticeable upgrade in performance and drivability.
S&B Cold Air Intake for Stronger Airflow
A big part of improving performance on a turbocharged engine comes down to airflow, and that is exactly where the S&B Cold Air Intake shines. The factory intake system does its job well enough, but it still creates restrictions that limit how much air the twin turbochargers can pull into the engine. The S&B system replaces those restrictive components with a high flow air box, smoother intake tubing, and a large reusable oiled cotton filter that allows the engine to breathe more freely. As more cool air reaches the turbos, the engine can produce stronger horsepower and torque while also improving throttle response. The oiled filter design captures dirt effectively while still flowing plenty of air, and it can be cleaned and reused throughout the life of the truck. S&B also includes durable silicone couplers and a sealed air box to keep hot engine bay air out of the intake path, helping the system maintain consistent performance whether you are commuting, towing, or putting the truck through its paces on a weekend drive.
SCT BDX Tuner with 5-Star Custom Tunes
To fully unlock the gains from the improved airflow, the package also includes the SCT BDX handheld tuner loaded with custom calibrations from 5 Star Tuning. This device connects directly to your truck through the OBD-II port and allows you to upload performance tunes that refine how the engine and transmission operate. The custom tunes adjust parameters such as boost pressure, fuel delivery, ignition timing, and transmission behavior so the engine can take advantage of the increased airflow and deliver much stronger power. The difference becomes obvious the moment you drive the truck, with improved acceleration, smoother power delivery, and more confident shifting. Beyond performance, the BDX also acts as a useful diagnostic tool that can read and clear trouble codes while displaying live engine data on its screen. That combination of tuning and monitoring helps keep your truck running at its best while giving you the control to tailor its performance to the way you drive.
Vehicle Fitment: 2018, 2019, 2020 Ford F150 3.5L EcoBoost
Kit Includes:
- S&B Cold Air Intake System (Oiled Filter) - 75-5122

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.
