ford_boy4l please stop playing with my testicles Donating Members 357 Member For: 13y 2m 17d Gender: Male Posted 22/10/11 11:25 AM Share Posted 22/10/11 11:25 AM (edited) gotta learn more about these xcal3's... don't know sh*t about them apart from ya plug em in and they make you go faster... I thought most sct's had 3 available tunes on them? can you just plug these things in and change what tune you have (say between a e85 tune and a standard high performance tune?) or do you have to start manually changing things? would've imagined boost was manually controlled, how can a computer give you more?

I run 20psi now with only mods to turbo is an actuator change and tune.when I have e85 I plug it in and upload the tuned bruce put in when it was dyno'd. takes 3 mins.when im out of go go juice I reflash it back to 98ron tune.

(http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/FORD-FLASH-TUNER-X3-BA-BF-FG-XR6T-XR8-FPV-GT-GTP-F6-/180742097709?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item2a15118b2d) would you trust a guy who can't spell idle, firm, axle, limiter and so forth?? lolI can understand the claims about spark, idle, rev limit, etc etc, but had some trouble getting my head around how a flash tune could increase your boost(but gather it all has to do with electronic wastegates contolled by ecu's), and as for axle ratio I would have thought that required a ratio change?

Bit friggin ridiculous, but then the servos can do it so why not I guess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
