Speaking of a 2015 F150 5.0 Coyote engime with no ther mods. I installed a MPT custom tune optimized for 93 octane using a SCT tuner. I have been running it for about 5k miles. It does make a noticeable difference in the get up and go. Gas mileage is where it should be at 18.4 mixed driving over the 5k. I do see the oil life monitor dropping from 100% quicker than it did pre-tune. Oil and filter the same; M1 0-40 and Fram Ultra. I plan on an analysis after 5k oil change.
Wanted to hear thoughts on using a tuner. It's by no means an extreme tune but it does advance the timing and I wonder what the affect on longevity is. Doesn't seem to be definitive answers. Figured I'd ask and see what some of you had to say.
thanks
