I have this on my class c with the 6.8,I noticed a difference just starting for the first time,it has a different sound to the exhaust. As far as driving goes,the shifting is the main improvement, no more constant downshifting on little hills,and if I pay attention to upcoming hills,I can maintain highway speed without a downshift at all. As far as acceleration, its a class c motorhome, its not winning any drag races,but there is an improvement for sure. Fuel efficiency is a little better,I averaged 10.8 on a 6k mile round trip from PA to ID,some serious thin air hills involved on that trip,and we went heavy as we took a bunch of supplies for family we were visiting. But I also now have a tachometer, voltage meter,trans temp,intake temp,coolant temp,but this is all customizable as well.

Have used good tuners before and loved the results. Would love to use this one on my new motorhome, but I'm not willing to forfeit my factory warranty. So I just slow down and downshift on the hills. The new 7.3 is a beast along with the 5.86 gears in my RV, and besides, I'm retired now and not in that big a hurry lol...

I went with Ultra RVs tune. Basically just liked their tables and shift strategy better but either way for a V10 motor home tuning is huge. Made a big difference in transmission temperatures and over all drivability is huge. Especially since I drive up into the passes of Colorado all the time. Constant WOT and at 144k miles on my 14 V10 I've had no issues.

Based on this video we ordered a 5Star Tune for our 2017 Thor Vegas 25.5 (E-450 chassis with the Triton V10 6.8L engine) and installed it today. OMG! The driving experience is so much better! The pointless double-downshifting on hills is gone! The engine is so much quieter all the time. I can feel the additional torque when starting from a dead stop and the acceleration even when going up a long incline is so much smoother. Thank you Izzy and MJ! Thank you #5startuning!

Tunes do leave crumbs so you are correct they can be detected even if put back to stock. The good thing is that the service tech really needs to look for those crumbs. I've done lots of tunes on overlander and off road trucks even during warranty and never had an issue at service once I retuned to stock. The odds are even most favorable for motor homes since Ford dealerships do not like to service the f-53 chassis. Odds are service will be 3rd party who most likely will NOT be looking for a tune

Headers may be an unapproved modification for road use and be required to undo, all contributing to emissions and it may not show up until the unit sale or a MV inspection. Back in the day we would advance the timing for some of these improvements. Looks good but the OEM may have needed to set the system using these parameters, will your warranty be effected?
