"5 star tuner" on a V-10?
Does anyone have any personal experiences with something called "5 star tuner" on a V-10 that they could share, or any other computer tweaks worth knowing about?
Forum Discussion
I have not done the 5 Star tune yet.
I have read a large number of posts where people had the
same experience as Hank85713 above. ALL positive.
It is on my list to do.
Medical issues come first.
It has always been my experience that the factory sets
everything up as a compromise. They try to meet EPA and
then the customer's basic demands. Not all customers drive the
same unit that is built on the stripped chassis.
That V10 chassis may have a 23 ft Motor Home on it or a 35 ft one.
The owner may use in in only flat areas or may like the mountains.
Some may drive at sea-level and others several thousand feet above frequently.
No one tune meets all situations.
I am not a super tuner by any means, but I have never bought any vehicle,
in my 67 years, that I could not improve performance over the factory.
Now I am not talking about a complete rebuild to accomplish that either.
With today's computer controlled everything it is getting more difficult.
The Ford forums that I have read all praise 5-Star, as well as other RV users.
