Fordedit Or No Edit

to any tuners or people in the know

is there any other tuning tool out there to tune the complete ba range.

can it be detected by dealerships

I would like to know if any tool can tune a car better than another similar tool.

eg. can 2 different screw drivers used by the same person tune a car differently or better.

is it better to clamp the timing on a car with an electronic interuptor to set it or just set the timing directly at the distributor.

to edit or not to edit??

Plenty of info on the site. Just do a search for SCT Edit or just plain EDIT :blink:

To answer one of your questions.

The tuning tools basically do the same thing if you use a piggyback tuning device

Most tuners on this site have allegents to one particular tool.

SCT EDIT is the new tuning tool that most people are considering when starting their mods. Quite a few have already swung over to th new tool.

hope this helps a little bit :blink:

ARE 2 DIFFERENT FLASH EDIT PRODUCTS TUNED BY THE SAME TUNER ABLE TO TUNE THE CAR BETTER THAN THE OTHER.

ARE THE FORD EDITS BETTER THAN AN INTERUPTOR SET UP.

CAN THE DEALERSHIP DETECT THE FORD EDIT

There is only one Edit on the market at the moment, so we will need to wait for APS to release their Edit.

ARE THE FORD EDITS BETTER THAN AN INTERUPTOR SET UP.

They each have their own advantages. The Piggyback will allow for realtime tuning, but will bend the ECU signal. The Edit is a store and forward type tuning, but can change a lot more parameters in the factory ECU, it will also change the parameters that the ECU uses, so it does not bend the signal.

CAN THE DEALERSHIP DETECT THE FORD EDIT

Apparently Ford DO KNOW the car has been flashed/Edited. Do not kid yourselves thinking that you can put the stock map back in the car and try to claim the car is stock if there are any warranty "issues" that could have been caused by a increase in power.

The Edit is still a new product and everyone is still learning what it can do. Not many people have custom tunes, but I can assure you it is the way of the future, because the ECU in the BA range is like a dual Xenon server......It has heaps of grunt that has not been exploited yet :blink:

thanks for the genuine replies.

being a tuner these questions were put forward to open genuine debate without conflict , ther fore the naive questions that have been answered well.

it seems any question posted on the fordedit is soon shot down in flames.

keep genuine debate open without the smartasses.

regards

Hmmm.....we have a new person with just 5 posts asking rather interesting questions considering the recent edit vs piggyback wars....and then commenting on how great it was that they were answered without being flamed.

I may be wrong, but over the years I have developed a good sense of smell. And I sense a TROLL.

Get out the FLAMETHROWERS!
