If you don't have the software yet you should look into decipha's set up. I have the PRP and if I had stayed with the stock ECU I might have switched over. I believe @cj428mach uses it and is very happy with it.
I'm running Binary editor from Coretuning.net. It was THE tuning software for Fords a decade ago when you were using a Quarterhorse chip.

The best I can piece together is the creator of BE is a software engineer and made it to tune his fox and started selling the software. I had it a decade ago to tune my fox and it was just a one time fee to buy the software and strategies were free but there weren't a ton out there. If you wanted to tune something that didn't come with the included BE strategies you had to buy the strategies separate from someone that had made a strategy but the nice thing was you could still tune as many cars as you wanted.

Since the strategies were open you could do anything you wanted if you were good enough to code and make the strategy do what you want (for example add flexfuel to a non-flexfuel car, add auto controls to a manual car, etc). Somewhere along the way BE teamed up with one of the guys that created a lot of strategies you could buy and encrypted all their strategies. Then you had to pay a license fee per vehicle to tune them. For guys that were capable of going in and modifying a strategy to get something they wanted they weren't allowed to do that anymore (decipha). Thus Tunerpro was created.

Tunerpro was what guys like decipha was using and with it they were able to go in to the strategies and make the computer do many things it was never capable of before. Tunerpro is very powerful but its kinda glitchy and for most of us we aren't capable of doing the coding to accomplish custom hacks so you rely on guys like decipha to make them for you. I remember years ago Malcolm tried Tunerpro and for some reason the computer wouldn't read one of his O2's. He switched back to BE with the same tune and his O2 worked, tried it several more times and same results.

I like BE better because it offers the ability to tune on the fly with a quarterhorse, I have access to a bazillion strategies so if I want to tune just about anything Ford I can if I pay the $96 for that vehicle. I also don't like that SCT made it to where I never really owned my software, you could only flash it so many times before you had to update and reset your amount of flashes. BE use to not have anything like that but now I think there is a clock and after so long it makes you do an update before you can open the software.

Sorry for the novel.

Keep doing your thing Skitz! Well done
Thanks man, that guy Arthur Itis is trying to slow me down but I refuse to give in. At the Shows, when I'm sitting in the vicinity of the car and I'm asked........."Where is the owner of this car"?, when I say me, the look on their face is priceless.

Wy did you take those gauges out? I’m thinking of adding an interceptor guage which would put me at two external gauges. I don’t think I want anymore than two.
