All of the SCT chips, red or green can be reprogrammed at will. They are not vin locked in any way and are erasable and re-programmable millions of times.

Your gains depend on your car and how good your tuner is at squeezing every pony out of it.

We've been SCT dealers since the beginning. These guys really know their stuff.....and so do we. The company, SCT does not do the programming. They provide the dealers with front door access to the stock codes of the car. Then the SCT dealer makes the changes to the codes to accommodate what the car or the customer needs.

So you can get 5 different chips from 5 different SCT dealers and get 5 different tunes.

We specialize in Fords, so we can tune anything with a Blue Oval on the grill. This includes the SHO, Powerstroke trucks, Mustangs, Crown Vics, Town Cars, Escorts, Focuses, F-150s...you name it. We do conversion applications too. We're currently putting a 6.8L V-10 Ford truck engine in a 1970 Cougar.

Stranger things have happened.

$30 is cheap for reprogramming.

I don't want to hijack this thread but thought my experiences with the product worth mentioning here. Doug built and used the SCT tuning with my supercharged Atx. On friday, a friend brought over one of those new G-tech gadgets and with it I made several 0-60 runs. The lowest was 4.7 and the highest 5.1 with a good amount of spin. I am glad that there are options like this in tuning made available to us now. :thumb:

I might like to buy an SCT chip.

I'd be very surpised if any of you know who he is but Bob Kurgan lives less than 20 minutes from my house and he is THE SCT tuning guru. He is world renound for his tuning work he has done on mustangs.

Given the small but mostly-sufficient parameter set (read: same as the current release of the TwEECer software) that is currently offered to SCT dealers for the '94-'95 D4U1 ATX SHO program via the SCT software, and given the bugs that exist in SCT's current mapping of the D4U1 program, I would be interested to see how a fellow chip burner - especially one who specializes in the Mustang and is purportedly well-known - would handle something like the V6 ATX SHO. ;)

He says he knows ford PCM programming well enough to tune my car. However I think that for what Im going for the TwEECer piloted by myself should be just fine. For now the car will only really be seeing a tranny and some nitrous. A turbo is on the horizon as well which would be quite a bit of tuning, which might be beyond me. And I dont know anyone local who knows these cars or the TwEECer.
