I had a 200sx b4 this and that ran 13 sec down the quarter and this thing would smoke it but unfortunatly I dont think it can run happily for a long time in this condtition without a proper tune anyway, but to the point here is there anyway of knowing what the values are set for on the tuner without going to ford? I understand the controller just selects what mode and that's all, prob a stupid question because I think iv got it sussed but its always good to get an oppinion on the matter or 3. Cheers!
