Default Custom Tune Question

Ok so I've just joined here I don't know if this is the right spot to post this question or not, but here it goes. I have a 2004 F150 FX4 Screw. I have a gryphon and that's the only performance upgrade I have. I am going to be running true dual 18" Dynomax Bullets 45'd out the back here soon. Then upgrading to AEM Brute force or S&B CAI.

SO my question is how do I go about getting a custom tune? I do 80% road driving and occasionally go off roading when hunting or shooting out in the fields. So most likely I would do a 87 performance tune, I've heard great things about that. So what do I need to do ?

Thanks in advace

It's simple - You just fill out this form and email it to PHP: http://dygytalworld.ehost-services13...20Signable.pdf Essentailly, just say on the form what you said here. If you plan to install a CAI, you'll need to say that, but I would not install the CAI until you have the tune.

Until you get your custom tune, you just leave the Gryphon in your truck and continue using whichever canned tune you are using now.

I'm not authorized to say.
But $30-$60.
And probably closer to $30 because you don't have extreme mods.

FYI only
I just ordered a 93 Performance tune and cost was $60. My only mod is the Gotts intake and a Magnaflow muffler.

I THINK that is because you either ordered a "stand alone" custom tune on a Gryphon you have had for a while or you got the tune as part of the conversion from an Edge to a Gryphon. I believe that if you get a Gryphon direct from PHP and pay for the tunes you expect to get at time of ordering, they are only $30 each as long as you don't have extreme mods.

No, Bill will write up the tune, let you know when it's ready and you will be able to download it to your Gryphon with Pegasus.
