2021+ tuner

[Rcostenero27]

I have a 2021 2.7l and have been looking into a tuner. I have not been able to find anyone who has a tuner on a 21+. Just trying to hear from someone who has a tuner on one and what they have, honest reviews

Livernois supports that engine. Note the I dont have a 2.7, but I'd trust them if I did.

There are gains to be made on it, for sure.

From the research I have done I was looking at livernois or mpt.. just trying to hear from someone else for before I make the final choice

Well with a lack of responses.. I just purchased an sct with mpt tunes. Hopefully this thread with spark the intrest in tuning 2021+ 2.7’s and give everyone some knowledge… Someone atleast say they want to do the same thing

There's probably more lack of response because only the 21/22 models can be tuned. I would also assume anyone that wants more power would already have the 3.5 over the 2.7 as well. I have a 23 2.7 and both Livernois/5Star told me the only way to tune is to completely replace my ECM. I would assume the same for the 24 models. I'd love to have my 2.7 tuned, but for now I just have the JB4 piggyback.
I'd go with Livernois if I could.

Yes so from what I understand your correct the 2023+ need a new ecm to tune… out of curiosity why would you choose livernois?…. I do kind of regret not buying the 3.5 for the occasional towing

Stupid to tune it. Get the 5.0. This is a econ motor. Bet it blows soon.

Wow....

A tune is not gonna blow up the engine..

tunes on turbo charged engines is a great upgrade

A tune only 2.7 will walk away from a 5.0..

What are you basing this on?

The 2.7 is likely the most reliable out of the choices on the F-150. Built from the same material as a diesel engine. Some people will never leave the mindset that a truck doesn't need a V8 for every application.

I'd prefer to get the 3.5L next time as well. This is a fleet vehicle for me, so hopefully next order I can get it.
There's really only a few options for tuning and Livernois seemed to be the most popular along with 5Star.

2.7 has the most over built block out of any of the ford engines. Even the dreaded wet belt ford them says can handle 1k HP in a 5.0 and there's people already pushing past that by a large margin.

Kinda an ignorant thing to say

I've had a Livernois tune on my '21 Super Crew 2wd 2.7 truck since October of '22. Haven't dyno'd the truck, but it ran 9.0 @ 80mph in the 1/8th mile a few years ago when I initially put the tune on (Stock it did 9.4 @ 77). I tuned it around 6k miles. It now has right at 30k. No problems or issues. I initially got a tune to try and fix how terrible the trans shifts. I finally got a resolution in that regard by using Forscan to clear the adaptive learning tables and command it to stop referencing them as well.
