hey guys i was wondering what you guys think i should get when i send my f5 back to get some more tunes.. i was going to get 80 tow and 120 race but was wondering if i should just go to 140. I'm going to run my truck in 80 most of the time and just wanted a higher tune for playing and for a little more smoke. i was only going to go with 120 because from what i have read my truck wont see any added power from the 140 because i don't have any fuel/oil mods. let me know what you guys think

What tunes do you have now? I know with mine I run the 80 Econo most of the time and 60 HP Tow when pulling the trailer. The tow and econo versions are quite a bit different in throttle response. A friend has the 140 tune in his and it runs good, not sure if he is running full capacity of the tune as he has regular oil/injectors but us running a FASS and RR set-up. His will put out a decent amount of smoke and has this weird problem with rear tire wear!

How much do you weight do you tow? I thought about getting the 80 and 40 hp tow for mine. The 60 works nice, but if I tow a lighter trailer the 80 would be good too. I figure the 40 would keep me in the safe zone towing steep hills.

I got 80 econo and 140 aggressive on mine. I drive around 90% of the time on 140 aggressive. I get the best fuel mileage on it plus with my larger tires its nice to have the extra power. I am going to send mine back to jody to get 120 though, I have stock oil and injectors and run out of oil from mid to top end.
