No flashes, will preditor work

I have an 05/03 f350 4 door, engine build date is 04/03 purchased in August of 03. I have had no flashes done, as of yet but have a recall which requires a flash. After being involved in your site, I am reluctant to have any flashes done, our truck runs great! does the preditor require any of the new flashes or does it work off of what is in there.

on other post the web master has stated it works on all 03 flashes OTHER than 09 and 14 IIRC... check the Predator thread to be sure...
I have all the flashes thru 12/03 and with the predator I still LOVE my trucks performance...

Take a look at the door frame sticker for the calibration code.

My apologies for not listing the complete thread that is 40 or 50 pages long...
I was giving u a quick overview of waht had been reported since you;ve not seen that...

I thought my point would be to trigger your research...

if you have the 12-03 flash - you have the latest flash....
you can run the predator and regain your mileage and IMPROVE the performance drastically...

I've NEVER seen any stickers put on mine for flashes...
maybe my dealer doesn't believe in it?
