Default Anything for Fords?

Just wondering. What do the Ford guys have for tuning? Is there anything similar to HPtuners for them? My neighbor is running a Ford, and it would help a BUNCH.

SCT Flash has an end user tuning solution, with similar control of what hp gives you for the ls1 stuff. (but also performance tunes as well, injector value files, maf files, ect..)

Their OBD-2 datalogger will do 60+ samples a second logging 20+ paramaters, with 4 analog inputs for auxilary devices.

Tell me about it, using anything for GM, then playing on ford stuff just blows it away

a quick 3-4 minute run on my friends 03 cobra, had a 6.5mb csv file of data. 6500 samples of data

That is more of what I was looking for. My buddy has done quite a bit to his 01 diesel, but it really needs tuning at this point. Thanks!

The only link that i do not know what sponsor sells the product is the tweecer. Everything else is carried or sold by at least 1 sponsor.

The only one here is you... I had left this w/links because as far as I knew there aren't any sponsors that sell ford tuning , and there aren't any sponsors that directly sell a product for ford tuning

Sponsors sell EFI Live V6 and V5 ... V7 directly competes w/a company that PAYS to have the RIGHT to advertise their product ... if a sponsor carries the product then you can send business to that sponsor all day long... it's not a difficult thing to comprehend... this was discussed in depth a while ago and it's been a happy harmony...

In the future instead of being a dipshit, PM or report the post if you have issues with it and it will be taken care of... rather than posting for the sole purpose of causing ****. get it? got it? good

Keep this on topic now or it's getting locked

Another vote for the PMS setup. EFI systems designs/manufactures it, Anderson Ford Motorsport distributes them. I've got one on my LX, put down 538 rwhp on a Mustang dyno and the car maintains nearly stock drivability characteristics. No surging/bucking when lugged down and got 24mpg on a roadtrip. It's very easy to use, and AFM offers great service/tech input as well as a startup tune based around your combo if you buy it from them.
