Hello all,
I have been keeping an eye on this thread as I took offense to the name of it "ADC lost my custom program". It was setting up for a bash among the few people that are having problems with there chip or car. No program was lost. The customer�s database was corrupted. At any rate he is receiving a more up to date program with are latest timing and maf tables.
We have made a lot of Contour and Cougar programs over the years. It is very rare to have any problems if the car is in perfect mechanical condition. We like to get as much data as possible from people experiencing any problems. I would hate to end up adjusting the computer to cover up something like a cracked manifold, bad 02 sensor, bad fuel pump, bad injector ect. When certain tables work in 100 identical cars and then not in 1 it prompts these types of questions. We try to work as best we can with the customer to figure out what�s going on. I have never refused to help anyone that has called or emailed. That�s what we are here for.
The only programs that are not very compliant with the new software are those built on the super old software. 2+ years ago This is not a problem for 99.99% of the people out there. We can still make any adjustments using the old software. When you purchase a chip from us you are not purchasing the base source code. You are purchasing the tune on a chip or Xcal 2. When you purchase Windows XP you are not buying the source code, you are buying the operating system.
We have invested a lot of time and money into the Contour and Cougar platforms. We have been the only ones that have built a top notch turbo kit for the 2.5L and 3.0L engines. This turbo kit and advanced tuning has resulted in record horsepower levels. For those running are current turbo kit, you will be the only ones since we have decided to stop producing the current turbo kits. Basically we lose money on every kit we have built.
We are working on a budget kit that is easier and less costly to produce. The budget turbo kit is targeted at allowing a wider audience the ability to turbocharge their Contours and Cougars.
We have also been thrilled to be the exclusive dealer for Buckshot Racing 3.0L engines. Are future shop car will be running the 3.0L Buckshot Racing engine along with are new budget turbo kit. Stay tuned for info on this kit!!
