Sounds great!
Stupid question, but where the heck is the PCM in these new trucks? I contorted into some pretty strange positions trying to find it up under the dash on the driver's side. I'm sure it's there somewhere, but I couldn't see it.

Just kidding guys...
Me thinks Ford may have a rabbit up their sleeve with the 3-valver. Much more potential in it yet, I think we'll see more power upgrades over time, maybe in a few more years, but there's potential...

Hey just thought of something while trying to figure out how I could run a 3-valver.
What if you were to put a hand-choke type thing on the plenum butterfly (the one that opens up the other intake valve, basically), and wire it up with a 2-valve computer?
The 3-valvers, they don't have two injectors per cylinder, right?
Might be a moster of a computer retune though...
ON EDIT: Before anyone says it, of course, hookup the go-pedal cable to the throttle body to do away with the drive-by-wire...

I've got an XCal2 for my Bullitt. I ran into some problems with uploading tunes that I had and the dealer sent me a replacement yesterday. Now that one is giving me a "ECM Unlock Fail." Think I have another DOA. I am stuck with a dyno-tuned 93 octane program and a slightly modified version of the same tune. After I was able to upload my tunes the first time it went south and would not recognize it. Unfortunately I did not put my 87 octane tune in and I am stuck running 93. I was going to buy one for my truck, but I do believe I will wait a bit longer.

the pcm is just down from the fire wall lip on the right side "passenger" as the big monster plugs going into it.
3 valve has only 1 big injector per cylinder.
as to race parts go into ford racings web site and down load the heavy hauler catalog, headers, and whipple charger kit and chrome valve covers for the 3 valve are in it, so i'm wondering if fords as some thing up their selve, as there are photo's and rumors of a 550hp super charged v10 floating around in here.
wrench. i backed it back down to 87 obtain. started haveing to carry clean shorts with me. "darn nycity drivers"
loading the sct make sure you pull fuse 40 for the fuel pump or it will not work

Captchas what was wrong with the pedal assembly?
What tune did you have in to give those results? Do you know what the tune did?
Do you think the headers helped or was it tuner? If you say headers helped I am ordering them right away.
And also hurry up and get that tuner dialed in
