I agree with Mr Whipple... at least in part.
One... their tune, I'm certain, isn't a joke.
It's a great tune for the average Joe who doesn't have the background knowledge necessary to safeguard their engine. It's factory reliable and idiot proof.
It's not the right tune for me. I'm an enthusiast and have a reasonably intermediate to more advanced level of engine and tuning knowledge. I want the MPT tune because I know how to take care of my truck and not tow without a tow tune flashed.
I wouldn't knock Whipple just like I wouldn't knock MPT. You are comparing apples to oranges.
For my purposes, MPT can't be beat. But for average Joe Shmoe... Whipple is s safe option... it's Just not the fastest one.

Sorry to hear, but all aftermarket CAI systems will set the same code, it's not isolated to one version. This is due to new calibration logic for more accurately detecting air leaks. Our website states *Custom tuning may be required, so we do notify the customer. Any return has to go through the purchasing dealer, not direct to us as we didn't take your order.
Our Stage 1 system is 50-state legal so there are no real drawbacks to doing the full upgrade. Our cal is a Ford recognized cal that the dealer can't flash over and will diagnose like normal.
Your actuator issue has nothing to do with the CAI. It sets the code, but there isn't a leak so fueling, spark, etc are all maintained just like stock.

Sorry, but this is not actually accurate. Have you tested our 50-state legal calibration? Have you been part of any durability testing where they actually maintain heavy load, up a grade, in high temps, on questionable 91 octane fuel? Sorry but no other aftermarket company can test the safety area's. MPT does a great job, make great power but its not actually legal in any state, nor would it ever pass a true durability test.
