[Power Hungry]

From the factory, Ford intentionally incorporate Tip-In torque management which they call "Shock Reduction" to prevent sudden shock to the driveline. This prevents a direct 1 to 1 relationship between your foot and the throttle blade resulting in the lag.

On some 2007 and 2008 trucks, there have been updates from Ford that actually help reduce some of this lag along with addressing a shift-flare issue on some strategies. In most cases, the Gryphon or Evolution will reduce or even eliminate this lag but because of the large number of strategies released each year, there are some strategies that need a little extra attention in order to achieve the desired results.

I see you included your "Box Code" in you information but, if you could, please provide the current HEX code for your vehicle and I'll get a closer look to see what we can do to help.

Take care.
