what exactly did you tell wayne as far as your mods?

I just added a note to the PayPal payment on the mods I had as instructed. He pretty much then creates a tune that is optimized for those mods. Man o man I can wait to go out and drive home!!!

I know but i was just going to compare your mods you told him with mine. I havent put it in yet but hopefully tomorrow it will stop raining. Im just trying to see if your mods are similar to mine - then I too should expect very similar gains. How much hrs pwr do you think it gave you?

DAMN RAIN ruining my fun!

Yeah I had to install mine yesterday inside the car while it rained outside but nothing was gonna stop me from installing my flasher!!! Bwaahahahahaha!!! LOL Anyway, my current mods are:

AEM Short Ram Intake
MSDS Headers & Y-Pipe
Magnaflow resonator
Dual Apex'i N1 N/A Rear mufflers
Fidanza Flywheel
B & M Short Shifter
And of course now my SCT Flasher

You are getting a custom program and limited ability to tune it.

Why are you even messing with changing the PCM or changing to another code??? Just alter your stock code and tune with the Xcal. You are making problems you don't need to have in the first place!

Demon, though I dont know you, and you sure dont know me, how can you come on here and assume that I dont know what I am doing?

Chris told me he was doing a motor swap, and that he was running a RJL1 pcm coded CSVT computer for the swap. I tuned it for that PCM code, as he requested.
The problems that Chris is describing could be any of a few problems, possibly 2 or 3 combined.

I am having him send me back the flasher, and also send me his PCM so I can have it checked out via a Ford breakout box, by a Ford Master Drivability Tech, to make sure that the PCM itself is still good.
In the meantime, I will be reprogramming his flasher to his current stock PCM so he will be able to utilize it in the meantime for no charge.

Now, does that sound like someone who doesnt know what they are doing or will hang a customer out to dry?
I dont think so.
