I'm loving this thread. Esp from Jerry@SCT. Your comments are bringing out my Chem Eng, Applied Maths and Physics subjects and i'm loving it. Perhaps I should go back and do that at Uni.

45,000km service coming up - and i'll be asking for a sizable list of fixes:

* Brake Shudder (2nd time, and has the applied "Fix")

Sorry if its been asked but what happens to the factory tune? Is it lost for good?

Cheers

The factory tune gets downloaded from the PCM and resides in the 'flasher'. You can put it back in anytime you want. Great huh?

After getting in my mates vy ss ute yesterday i was reminded of what a cable accelerator felt like, i was wondering if there is anything in the flasher that can give that immediate response with the pedal, as a cable does??

We are all inclined to judge ourselves by our ideals; others, by their acts.

Can you swap base maps from car to car (I know you'll need 2 programmers, married to each VIN) but if you had 2 cars, could you compare base maps supplied from Ford?

Not that anyone would bother, as you'd hop them up to 270-280kw & then compare,but I am just wondering if it could be done??

Yep.

Someone was telling me about 6 weeks back that SS inductions was looking at making some system where the T/B has a better response to the pedal..I will get on to Rod he knows Kevin at SS, see what we can find out..

That would require the ss t/b wouldnt it?? Im hoping to get docs BPT one in about a months time.

You would think being electronic that the flasher would be able to change the settings???????
