[QUOTE="Black02GT, post: 14962163, member: 23818"] Nothing, the Advantage software is actually downloadale from their site, but can't even look at it without the licensing USB dongle. There is a help file that has general efi and a ford specific one that has heavy overlap with Don's book. Don's CD of videos is pretty good too but just an animated version of the book really and the book is more detailed. Someone gave me this link [url]http://www.rothfam.com/maf/doc-project/tuning_the_maf.html[/url] (sorry who gave this to me can't remember for credit) it gives a good technique for mass air transfer calibration. Also once you have the software you can get access to the SCT forum that has a lot of archived info cobra specific. The link above shows what most of it is, make logs and see if what's happening matches you target. If not change the value by the percent difference. The software is daunting at first since there are a huge amount of things you can mess with, but really only have to mess with 10% of it. Getting the car to run and even getting WOT dialed was easy enough. I found the on/off throttle and transitions back to idle when you clutch in the trickiest part. The software comes with value files for most of the common aftermarket parts and Don sets you up with a base file. The base gets the car running, you start at idle, log and adjust then do the same for free revs, then low load cruising, and keep progressing untill your WOT. In my experience the amateur tuning guys love to chat about it and are very helpful. This is my experience as a noob myself, only a few months in but I'd do it again without a doubt. Just be prepared to be super patient, make small changes, and don't get carried away. Don LaSota, Eric Brooks from Brookspeed, and Justin from VMP all help out the amateurs a lot. [/QUOTE]
