Can I use SCT PRP to disable PATS when installing a new ECU?

[CannibalCobra]

Title pretty much has my question. I got a new ECU for my car, and I know I have to either calibrate the PATS to work in my car, or turn the PATS off. I'd rather not have to pay Ford to calibrate my PATS with their NGS machine, so I'm wondering if after I install the ECU in my car, if I can disable the PATS with the Pro Racer Package software so the car will start. Does anyone know FOR SURE if this will work?

The other option is to call a locksmith with ngs tool. They told me they could do it. Ppl they said buy junkyard ecus and have the same problem in the newer cars.

Yup. SCT can do it.

But if your car is stolen I wouldn't say anything or hope they don't recover it and find out.

The locksmiths I called didn't really have any clue what I was talking about when I asked if they would do it.

I called and talked to James @ SCT and he said that it would work. I'll find out tonight.
