I have a 5 star tune on my E350 van (1998 V10 that used to pull a 5k travel trailer). It was a little power boost, the big advantage is the handling of the transmission. I think that is negated somewhat with a 2006+ motorhome (5 speed trans) though. I also installed a higher flowing open air filter. Sounds cool, unless you want to actually have a conversation when climbing a hill lol. That thing is LOUD at WOT.
I installed neither on my 2004 chassis motorhome. It's just fine as it is, and I don't feel like the $/benefit ratio is there.
A Banks kit would probably help, but wow are they proud of their stuff... Not for me.
I'll settle for dropping out of overdrive on overpasses, and climbing big hills at 45mph in 2nd. :B
