Worm A much better forum Silver Donating Members 3,808 Member For: 16y 8m 28d Gender: Male Location: Victoria Posted 23/07/10 10:19 AM Share Posted 23/07/10 10:19 AM Yeah true that... But I guess when you bought an XCAL or XCAL2 it was not suggested that it could tune the ZF...I just think its a f*cking cash scam...I mean, if the XCAL 1 didn't support ZF tuning (which it may not, but I cant see how this could not be done with a software upgrade... All they would need to do is add some variables to the software that could be edited and written to the car...) you would have had to upgrade anyway if you wanted it tuned...The BA boys have been shafted the most! Especially if they have an XCAL 1 and built the motor...

But I guess when you bought an XCAL or XCAL2 it was not suggested that it could tune the ZF...Yes it was.Dont you recall when buying a flash tuner you have to specify BA-BF, 6 cyl, V8, Auto(4spd/6spd) & Manual (5spd/6spd)Well I dont recall a BF running a 4spd auto do you?

However I don't think SCT would allow these paper weights to be used anything other than that.........

Think of the 1000's if not 10,000's of enthusiasts who have paid out there hard earned for some thing that is now useless. I remember when these things first came out they were selling for $1200 plus. Think of the money they would have made, from what appears to be a very simple design.Now people are forced to purchase essentially the same thing and yet again making them more money Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/68837-xcal-1-going-offline-discussion/page/29/#findComment-1027072 Share on other sites More sharing options...
