Shortly after toads got a hold of it hahaha. Was a few thousand to buy as well.

Not cheap (as he puts his markup and then a pain in the ass factor cost) also you don't get any support as you effectively bought it through someone else. I don't want it as hpt can do everything I want but it is an option if someone desperately wants SCT

I also heard a while ago not sure if it a rumour or not that the HP tuners used to do some weird things to the fords like switch on thermos when it wanted or other stuff that I can't remember is it true or is that just crap. And Ralph when u refer to region is that Aus and US

The actual mechanics of it may be different to what i've posted but long story short US Xcal wont work on Aus Cars and ProRacer will only work on US Xcal's
Qik6 Member 39 Member For: 12y 3m 9d Posted 01/08/16 01:47 AM Posted 01/08/16 01:47 AM Ok fair enough doesn't look like it will affect me all ozzy based stuff I got
