Ford Performance Tune

@smenard415 - great news!

To quote Joe, "you can't kill the ecu".

Challenge accepted…

Just kidding. Glad to hear that you were able to get the necessary help and that Bertha is back amongst the living and your wife isn’t going to have to terminate you. I’ve been there and faced that threat level and it’s no fun.

 

[Tommy Flippen]

Just saying - y'all can easily install it yourself.

Help! I'm registered at Performance Site, voucher # entered, ready to download the Zip and my Norton is saying this site/download has a virus Huer.AdvMLB. Called FP tech line, he said just open the firewall. Anyone else run into this?
Going down this path eventually I will be asked "Are you sure you want to proceed?" If I was sure I would be already installed and enjoying the tune....

 

[st8]

Yeah I wouldn’t let it stop you. Disable that firewall. You only need built in windows one anyway.

Correct! But Norton keeps stopping from the app from downloading from the FP site...

Trust or don't. It's up to you - disable Norton and proceed, or don't.

Friends don't let friends use Norton Anti-Virus.

Thanks for the vote of confidence, install is complete with no issues. The ST starts now heading out for the 1st trip down Pacific Coast Hwy. Appreciate your input guys!

I know it calls for 91 or 93 octane (we generally only have 91 here) but has anyone using it been running 89 with any issues? Would there be any issues running 89 vs 91 or 93?

I only run 91 and in sport mode exclusively and so far it performs well though I haven't looked for the extra 30 hp yet. I believe it will run fine on 89 but you will not see the full benefit of the FP tune.

I have only used 93.

careful on the 1 right now, the conditions are horrible in some spots with debris and road closures. I’m stuck in some little town on the California coast because of the storm shut the highway down

If you still have a warranty, their website says its null and void if you use less than 91 octane

Where to buy the performance tune for ST?
What are the pros and cons?
Is it available in all 50 states? (For CA people)
Is it a dealer installed or DYI feature?
What about the premium care warranty after tune?

Might be repeat (silly) questions, but I was not able to find clear answers after browsing 32 pages here. We really need some sticky posts/threads for the forum.

I used 87 for first tank because I filled up before the tune was installed, no issues.

Running 91 all the time now

All of your questions have been bantered, argued, and discussed in the previous 32 pages but no need to worry because the FP tune is not available for your 2022 in California. Watch Steeda or Lethal Performance for the best price if you choose to move on it.

Having driven Hwy 1 from Santa Monica to the Oregon line on 2 wheels and 4 wheels there are worst places you could be stuck but you better head for higher ground like the 101 or the 5 because there's more rain coming. I'm way farther south in Seal Beach, CA.

Makes me want it even more now..
Anyway I'm not a person needing anything more than what Ford is offering in the stock form. I'm interested only because it's from Ford.

Next obvious question, anyone in California can drive to a neighborhood state and get it done?

I think the issue may be with inspection? Which needs to be whatever state the car is registered in. I’m still not sure how the 20-21 is okay but not 22.
