profrat Member 126 Member For: 21y 4m 24d Location: Eastern Victoria Posted 10/06/13 04:48 AM Share Posted 10/06/13 04:48 AM Hi guys. Been absent from forums for a long time. Still got my 03 BA 5 speed man Turbo. Still thinking of getting it edited for better bottom end grunt. It will stay otherwise stock and I just want to maximised low to mid range. Not interested in more top end so I am assuming standard injectors, valve springs etc could cope with that.Looking at my options. I see CAPA Ford Flash 2 advertised as: "blank, suitable for custom tuning only."Can these still be custom tuned?For how much longer?Are there any disadvantages for me in using this one compared with the xcal3?Advice apreciated. :-)http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/BLANK-CAPA-Ford-Flash-2-BA-BF-Falcons-FPV-and-Territory-Ford-Flash-Tuner-/160808345020?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item2570ec9dbc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XCAL3 is only needed for ZF tuning at this stage I think...but you won't have that issue.Someone correct me if I'm wrong!
