Better to learn live tuning on a sh*t box than jump straight into flash tuning and blowing up your ford. Edit: I definitely agreed on doing stuff right the first time.

It's not conclusive but covers the general gist of load points. I'll pm you some links if you like. Just pm me what you want to know either specifically or generally and I'll find something relevant for you or straight out tell you (if I know the answer) if it's a quick answer.

Had I known that little bit of insight I would've kept the bt1 and done that on the side. Never mind I'll do it the hard way haha!

This will be difficult to get correct. If the stock one is dodgy best to replace with stock one. But saying that it may be something completely different. You need someone with experience to take a look at it.. Expand 2 hours ago, arronm said: So easy to buy all mods, fit or get tuner to fit. Drive car in , get tuned, drive out and enjoy. Do it once, do it right!! Expand Even though my first info was a bit around the wrong way I did touch on these things. Agree 100% about genuine actuator and having the drive in drive out,enjoy option. Do what your confident in fitting leave the rest to the tuner.
