Question Ranger Performance Programmers....???

Exactly who all makes programmers to flash the pcm in a 2003 ranger? I called Diablo to order a predator for mine and they told me they don't exist. I went down to my local go-fast store and the guy there told me the same thing. He even called around to several distributors and we struck out. He said the market is saturated with programmers for the V8's but the market isn't substantial enough for the 4.0 V6.

Preferably, I would rather flash it than chip it. I like the flexibility of the Predator and was wondering if anyone knew where I could get a high quality programmer with capabilites similar to the Predator. Thanks a lot.

Sam

The company Ranger (2000 XLT Supercab) has used one on and off, as well as SCT chips and Diablo chips. Right now it has an SCT tune loaded via a Microtuner that I made.

Yes, it will pull OBDII codes from other Fords.
