This has my attention, but not my cash yet ($300 isn't worth going over 112 MPH)
Can anybody help out? or maybe not?

generally changing timing is a good thing,the o2's they are talking about are the downstream ones,instead of using mil's when you gut the precats,or have headers you just make the computer think they arent there in the first place,(no cel for them)......its really good if your done with your mods,that way you can tie everything together,i.e air to fuel,timing etc, if you have bigger injectors,or larger maf....if your car is stock, it may not be worth it...if you have a svt you could raise the rev limiter to say 7250 7300, and usually this allows you to hit 60 in second gear...

Just got another email from Brent. I let him know that there was a slim chance that we'd make the 15 people he was asking for, and asked if he would be interested in a possible group buy for that same price down the road. He said that if we can get atleast 5 people to commit, he'll still program them for $310.00 for one program, and $15 for each additional program. He can have these in time for Spring Zing if we get 5 people. The only thing is, he won't be coming out to Spring Zing for 5 people, as he is a couple hours away.
Hector, I emailed him back asking if he can get the Focus blower files. I let him know you are running a JR S/C on your Zetec, and the files should be pretty similar, only with different computer codes. I'll let you know what I find out.

Hector, Brent emailed me back.. He said he can get the Focus file directly from SCT if you're still interested in a tune..
