    Improve the power and performance of your 2009-2010 5.4L V8 powered F-150 with a SCT SF4/X4 Power Flash Tuner that includes (3) 5 Star Tuning Custom Tune Files. When your F-150 rolled off the assembly line, Ford programmed it to cater to the needs of the daily driver, not the performance enthusiast who adds aftermarket bolt-on modifications in the search for more power. If you have added a cold air intake, throttle body, exhaust or other performance upgrades, you'll need a custom tune to see the full power potential that these aftermarket bolt-on modifications can make.
    When you order a SF4/X4 Tuner by SCT, you aren't just getting a tuner. You're getting the tuner and 3 dyno-tested custom tune files that are written specifically for your F-150 and your particular modifications by a 5 Star Tuning calibrator. By optimizing the air/fuel ratio, adjusting ignition timing and tweaking cam timing, a 5 Star Tuning Custom Tune will squeeze out the extra power Ford left on the table. You even get your choice of octane level. 5 Star offers your choice of two different tunes including Performance/Towing or Economy.
    The SF4/X4 Power Flash Tuner measures in at 2.7” wide X 5.5” tall making it much smaller than the original SF3/X3 for easy storage in your center console or glove box. The cord is detachable and there is no battery or power supply needed. It uses the power from your vehicle's diagnostic port or computers USB connection.
    The SF4/X4 Power Flash Tuner is now WiFi-capable meaning you will no longer have to plug it into your PC/Windows computer to receive the latest SCT firmware updates. Once setup with your Wi-Fi password, the X4 will download the latest firmware updates via the internet.
    With a full color LCD display, the SCT SF4/X4 Power Flash Tuner makes it easy to read the Built-In Data Logging and/or the Real Time Data, so you can view popular sensor data such as EGT, Air/Fuel Ratio or any other 0-5 Volt source.
    The SF4/X4 Power Flash Tuner can also be used as a diagnostic code reader. Save yourself hundreds of dollars each year by reading and clearing your own Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) rather than paying a dealer to do the same. It's as easy as a few simple steps.
    When you load your custom tune on the vehicle, the tuner automatically stores your vehicle's factory settings. To return the vehicle to its factory settings, just plug the tuner back in, select the option to restore the factory settings, and you're done. This is ideal for visiting dealerships for warranty work.
    Application. This 5 Star SF4/X4 Power Flash Tuner by SCT that includes 3 Custom 5 Star Tunes is specifically designed for 2009-2010 Ford F-150 models, excluding Raptor, equipped with the naturally aspirated 5.4L V8 engine that are stock or running basic bolt-on modifications such as a Cold Air Intake, Throttle Body and/or Full Exhaust System. amtrucks.at/2s...

    I had 5star tunes on my 2009 F150 FX4. Definitely makes the truck shift harder and moves the shift points up higher in the rpm. If you romp on your 5.4 you will like this tune but if you drive slow and easy this wont be ideal. Also, my battery died once doing this tune and it was a pain. Make sure your at home with a bttery charger near by. Is it worth 400-500$$$... nah! I'm sure they are making a killing on these tunes. I'd pay 100 max for tuning a 10 year old truck. if you have money to blow you should have just bought a 5.0 coyote 2011 or newer f150.
    If you just have to mod yours get an intake kit, exhaust, and mike at 5star tunes. You will definitely feel it in your butt dyno and your 5.4 Triton will rev out significantly more. I beat on mine from 90k miles to 186k miles and then I blew my rear main seal. Lost a few quarts every 3000k miles but the old 5.4 3v ticked along. Oh and if your VCT starts rattling at low rpm when warmed up just leave it be and change your oil every 3000k miles. I beat on mine until 200k and then traded it in. Also, those early 6spd trannys will shift so hard you might break your neck so just be ready for some exciting downshifts.

      Normally I would think you are over exaggerating but I rode in my buddies 2004 5.4 and he has a tune on his and his shifts so fast I had to ask him if he had a shift kit..
      "... what's that?"
      I was like are you serious? And he was like what are you talking about. All he had was a tune and it shifted haarrrddddd I mean it surprised me 😂😂
      I'm sure it can't be good on the trans but he don't care lol

    Does this particular model need to stay connected to the vehicle even after the tune is loaded? Or can it be unplugged and stored, and only plugged in when needing to change tunes/check DTCs?

    Great video as usual! Could you guys do a video like this one for the 2004-2008 F-150 with the 5.4 V8? I have a 2006 F-150 with the 5.4 V8 and I am really interested in getting a tune for it. It would be very helpful and a good selling point for me. Thanks!

      Mike at 5star tuning will set you up with the tunes you need. 87 performance, 89 performance, 91 or 92 or 93! Hell you can even get an E85 tune if you can find the fuel near you and your truck is E85 ready! Most 2009-2010 F150 5.4V8s were flex fuel ready. Just look at your filler cap and if it says "E85" around it you should be fine. I wouldnt waste money on an octane booster!!! Just run the 87 or 89 performance tune as a daily. E85 would be ideal if you really want make power and dont care about mpgs.
