thanks guys i just got off the phone with one dealer and he told me that unless there is an engine light on that they would not be able to do anything. called another dealer and they are going to reprogram the pcm in the morning. hopefully this takes care of the throttle lag, too. ford dealers suck when it comes to getting warranty work done.

Im around 850. One time I turned it up to 1400 and it was pretty cool. IT would be cool with cams to turn it down to 500 and see what those things would sound like.
