SR-71 Blackbird

that's the problem saleen I have no diagrams to intall the unit even after asking for help. Will Anyone help?

Can anyone help have been to the excede site numerous times asked for asistance with broken links to install diagrams base maps the only downloadable item on the excede site is now the dyno maps. Little help for a new excede owner. Can anyone help?

any news lok?

Lets see stated on the CAPA site: One Box can be cleared and used on another car for as many as 5 cars, so a $1,297 investment over 3 to me this requires the reset? As stated line C capa site: C: The flash tuner can be changed over to a new vehicle, it must be cleared using software available from CAPA. This process can only be performed 5 times. Then it must go back to SCT / USA for a Reset. The unit is vin locked A: Once the Flash Tuner has been used to program a vehicle, it will be VIN locked to that particular vehicle until the programming has been returned to the stock setting. As per CAPA site http://www.capa.com.au/ford_flash_tuner.htm

I'm confused So....you could transfer Edit between cars, but only after the first car has been returned to a stock tune???? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The vehicle being tuned is locked to the box via vin or other unique identifier. The box will tune the vehicle it is locked to indefinitely (the unit can only be locked to one vehicle at a time). If the unit is required to tune another vehicle the unit needs to be sent back to supplier for reset (this can only be done 5 times and will lock the last vehicle (the fifth) to the box). What I am asking is how do you reset the ECU back to stock if you don't have a program? Or will the box hold multiple maps?

Of what I understand you can retune the vehicle as many times as you want. When transfering to a new vehicle you require the unit to be sent back to CAPA or an authorised dealer to be reset. The unit must somehow identify the vechile from vin or something not allowing a port to another car. Was going to try the unit on the teritory and the T but second thoughs now as you don't get any software. So if you mod the car it has to be retuned by the CAPA authorised installer or persons with the software, the unit can only be used on one vehicle and needs to be sent back to the supplier to be reset each time you change from car to car (then locked on the fifth car permanently), how much is the small fee to reset + postage costs and the original program how do you port it back to the EMS when you put the car back to standard? Anyone have any answers?

I believe you would have little to no improvement if you fitted a pod style filter to the original T box. Reasons being you would need to know the surface area of the filter material which I believe would need to be smaller or marginally bigger on the pod as it will need to fit in the airbox. Another thing to remember is the airbox design is for a bottom entry. When looking at a xr8 box design we see the design is for maximum airflow. If you look at the filter used in the xr8 it is the best flowing factory air filter avalible for a car of it's class or was only a couple of years ago borrowed from the mustang. You will also see the filter is larger in size than others. Stone brothers racing were one of the first to use the pleated design on the V8 touring cars to increase surface area of the filter. BMC offer probably the best aftermarket air filter. If you believe the claims of unifilter there can be a gain without testing I don't know. ALL NEW!

R.R.P. $185.00 Price Includes the RAMPOD and all the Mounting Hardware The choice I would probably go for the xr8 Box, BMC Filter and added intake adapter to attach the original T snorkel this is a tried and proven winner but the pod in the airbox may have some merit. Hope this helps.

Lok any news on the plug in version of the xcede for the BA Turbo. Also now that I own an Excede I have tried to download the base map for the T and the wiring Diag but have been sent to broken links. Any help apreciated. Regards Sr P.S is there a differnet map for the auto. Will look at a Lok Chiptorque tune when on the gold coast next thanks.

What Expensive Daewoo drivers at ford that’s a case for instant dismissal. No wonder we have had gremlins in the manufacture. :lol:

Yeah haven't been here for a while the whole forum has changed a little would like to talk with people who have an open opinion mostly they do but some are hell bent on forcing their opinion on others.

In a turbo application two hiclones are recommended one pre turbo one after. The theory behind it is a valid one but application may be a little placebo. The hiclone is meant to swirl the intake charge of air providing a better flow of air into the intake and or turbo. The swirling may infact promote a greater air flow in the intake tract. Some thing need to be considered though the concertina hose used to attach air box may cancel effect. The changing diameter of piping can reduce effectiveness or negate it. Until it is proven by dyno or other test it can neither be confirmed or discounted but it is a high cost for a relatively small gain in some cases. It may be able to compliment other mods such as the ss billets intake is only supposedly required with other mods will need more info before a conclusion is made either way.

I disagree as people in QLD have been booked for Neons under the vehicle.
