mileage help
hey i got a 02 350 wit a 6 inch lift and 33s under it. it has a superchips cortex in it and i only get 13 mpg on a good day with it. about 9 pullin a trailer. i was wonderin if i could get any advice on what to add to my truck to get better mileage out of it and maybe even more power? i was planning on getting a s and b intake and mbrp 4 inch exhaust for it this fall. also would there be a better chip for all around hp then the cortex? it gives me plenty of power i hardly notice pulling a fully loaded trailer of cattle behind it (about 10000 pounds). ill take any advice anyone has.. thanks

i have thrown an icp sensor failure pulling trailers up big hills before and i had this checked out at two different ford dealers and neither could find anything wrong nor anything wrong with the rest of the truck

With 25#'s boost I dont think its the up pipes leaking, or a boost issue. Your still running the stock exhaust and intake? Changing them should net you about 1.5-2 MPG better...
What setting are you running the tuner at?

do you have a preference of what brand of pyro? i have it set on mileage save because of the fact that i live 25 miles away from town. the only time a change it is when i have the erge to race a little chevy and then i set it on performance. i havent lost a race yet... even though ive only raced three times
