3.5 Ecoboost Performer
Does anyone know of anyone that offers a programmer or is working on one. I know the truck just came out and it takes awhile for R&D but was curious.
I really like my truck and really impressed with how it runs but always looking for a little more.
Just Curious.
Thanks,
J.Shoot

Based on the numerous posts (on several other forums) about Ford's direction to dealers re: performance mods, I WOULD NOT tune, tweak, or play with the EB PCM unless you are willing to completely void your warranty.
Ford is taking a very hard stance on any modifications to the EB engine platform.
And yes - the dealer can tell if the PCM has been programmed.

The PCM's on ALL of the turbocharged vehicles from Ford now are encrypted at the PCM supplier. There is NO current decryption method in place, and will not be for some time. There are already issues with dealers accusing people of trying to flash the PCM, and the resulting problems with the warranty division.

Are you saying that Ford can't detect if someone has tried to tune one, or that no one has been able to break the encryption and tune one?

I'll believe the Spartan hype when I see it first hand-I have seen no evidence so far that anybody has been able to flash those PCM's.

I have no reason to doubt his word. He has been tuning Ford diesels for awhile and is one smart guy.
This company has had one out for several months- up to 120 hp

Maybe you need to get out a little more.
