Comprehensive Performance Package that Includes Hard Parts and Custom Tuning
While it's plenty possible to shop around and find parts and tuning combinations that work together and get your truck big-time power, you can save some time and money by grabbing our Phase 2 Performance Package for your 2011 to 2014 F250 or F350 6.2L Super Duty. Our Phase 2 Package includes an aFe cold air intake kit, BBK 85mm throttle body, and your choice of either an SCT X4 handheld tuner or Livewire monitor with powerful custom tunes from 5-Star Tuning. The aFe Intake Kit and BBK throttle body makes airflow into your 6.2L V8 more efficient, all while 5-Star's tuning turns up your Super Duty's horsepower and torque, which totally transforms how your F250 or F350 drives and performs. Best of all, you get all these components right here, in one place, at a lower price than purchasing each separately. You save some serious cash while adding big-time performance to your 6.2L Super Duty truck.
Highly Efficient aFe Intake that Improves Airflow into your Engine
Getting as much power and torque as possible from your 2011 to 2014 F250 or F350 6.2L Super Duty truck requires an overhaul of its pretty restrictive intake system, and aFe has a great way to do it with their Stage 2 Magnum Force Cold Air Intake kit. aFe's cold air intake kit for the 6.2L Super Duty replaces your truck's air box and inlet tubing with much more efficient hardware that improves airflow into your truck's V8 for nice performance gains. aFe's intake comes with everything you need to get it installed on your truck, and easily bolts on right in place of your Super Duty's stock air box without any permanent modifications. The aFe system includes a high-flow air filter that can be reused for life, which can save you some cash in the long run over disposable paper filters. The intake kit comes with mandrel-bent aluminum intake tube that reduces restrictions and improves air velocity over stock. The system comes with all the hardware you need to get it installed, as well as installation instructions.
Large-Diameter, Drop-In Throttle Body from BBK Performance
The factory throttle body on your Super Duty's 6.2L V8 does its job admirably, but there's plenty of room to improve. BBK's 85mm throttle body has a larger diameter than your truck's throttle body, allowing a larger volume of air to enter your truck's intake manifold when you punch the throttle. The end result is more horsepower, more torque, and big bump in responsiveness. The throttle body installs right into place of your Super Duty's factory throttle body as a direct, bolt-on replacement and requires no permanent modifications. BBK's throttle body is made out of high-quality cast aluminum and comes with an OE-style actuator and a plug-and-play connector for your Super Duty's TPS sensor wiring harness. The throttle body is incredibly easy to install and is full compatible with the aFe intake included in this package.
Includes your choice of SCT Tuning Device for Uploading New Tunes to your Truck
Our 6.2L F250 and F350 Performance Package includes your choice of either SCT's X4 Handheld Tuner or SCT's Livewire TS+ Monitor for use with 5-Star's custom tuning. Both device's quickly and easily upload your choice of tune to your truck's PCM to give your truck big-time performance in practically no time at all. The X4 Handheld Tuner comes standard with our package and features a color screen with intuitive button controls. The X4 is extremely easy to use and operate, and comes in at a great price. An upgraded option is SCT's Livewire TS+ Monitor, which features a large color touch screen that allows it to work as an excellent monitoring device to keep tabs on all of your 6.2Ls critical functions. Both devices are able to store a copy of your truck's factory tuning and can read and clear DTC trouble codes, which makes them handy tools for diagnosing potential problems with your truck. Both devices come with an OBD-II and USB cable, and the Livewire comes with a windshield suction cup mount.

How our F250 & F350 6.2L Custom Tuning Works
After you order your tuner, you are sent a
"blank" tuner without any custom tunes. We'll then send you an email that needs to be completely filled out and emailed back to us. However, you'll need to have your tuner before you can complete the form. After your tuner arrives, you'll need to hook it into your truck and get your
ECU Strategy Code and put it in your tune email next to "Strategy". After we receive your completed tune information, the tune itself will be built and sent to you via email as an attachment. Download the tunes .cef files to your computer and use your updated SCT software from SCT's website to upload the tunes to your tuner. Please be aware that SCT's devices and software are
only compatible with Microsoft Windows computers, and will not work with Mac OS X, Linux, or other operating systems. Once the tunes are in the tuner, you can then tune your truck. If we find that your F150 is behind on its latest TSB strategy updates, we may require you to have your TSB updates performed at your dealership of choice. Read our
TSB Update blog post. If you need more information or assistance, check out our
F150 Tuning How-To blog post.
