2003 Navigator
Ken, I am about to take delivery of a 2003 Lincoln Navigator. I have the Diablo chip (78 hp) in my 2002 PSD and I love it. What is your recommendation for the Lincoln? Chip or Mircotuner? I am not particulary interested in a switchable chip because I do not want any visible switches, etc.

Do you know the ECU code (passenger side door frame next to hinges)? With a 2003 the selection from either company is limited. Let me know and I'll give you a run down of the options.

Ken, I have waited to get some mileage on the new car. I have had some difficulty finding the code. There is a sticker on the firewall passenger side that says "CAU1" Is that it?

No news.... waiting on someone with such a computer to send us their computer so we can read it and produce a program.

An update. Its not chippable. It has the new p-tech style computer, which does not have service port to plug a chip into. Hopefully Diablo will produce a Predator for it.

Ken, I've ben reading through this forum with great interest - reprogramming seems like the easiest thing to do.
At this point is there anything available for the 2003 Navigator?
Also, if the tuning requires 91 octane, what happens if I'm already using 91 octane. I'm looking to increase hp and mpg (like everyone else!).
Thanks!

Nothing yet, unfortunately. When Diablo finally comes out with the unit it will support multi-octane settings. If you're already using 91 octane than you get a free mileage boost for your gas money in addition to the horsepower increase.
