btw what the heck is a Charge Motion Plate Kit (IMRC Deletes)? they are saying it adds 10hp... hummm

V8 Aggie

so is it easy to use or what?

i am assuming you are referring to the SCT. Yeah man, it is easy as hell to use. You plug it into the port underneath the left hand side of the dash, select which "PROGRAM" button you want, turn the ignition on, and it automatically saves your stock program and reflashes it with the new program. I had Steeda add another program already that consists of headers, exhaust, x-pipe, underdrive pulleys, and 3.73's so when i get those parts (shortly), all i have to do is plug SCT back in and choose the other program...

the next time i send it back will be to calibrate the last slot for my supercharger[sm=icon_rock.gif]

Charge Motion Plates are already on your car. They bolt between the intake and heads. The stock ones have flappers in each intake port that close off air under low to mid throttle. Under full throttle they open up completely. The ones Steeda sells have no flappers in the ports. They are straight through. They give you about 10 Hp in the low to mid RPM range but marginal at full throttle because the stock ports are open wide then.

But the flash program and the pullys will help the S/C not to mention the gear change. I wouldn't consider it mis-spent money.

Personally I'm going to get the Predator. They are coming out with the V6 model in about a month and I'm not sure what the X-calibrator will do but the Predator seems to be able to do more. You can play with your fuel and gear ratios, turn off the rev and speed limiters as well as the Traction Control if you want and the preprogramed settings already get rid of the delay in the throttle control. You can also adjust for different size tires so your speedo is right if you get different size wheels or tires. And I don't know if it matters ot you but you can also check other Ford cars diagnostics and turn off engine lights and stuff you just can't tune them.

Should I take this to mean that you cant do these things with the SCT?

I think you can but the Predator has a on unit screen where with the X-Calibrator you have do buy a $40 cable and do it on your computer and download it to the X and then download it your car. plus (and I don't think you can do this with the X but I'm not positve)since the Predator has a screen it be used to check your car while your in it and do programming while your sitting in the drivers seat and it will let you use the diagnostic features on any Ford with OSB-II engines. this means you can check codes and reset engine trouble lights on any Ford you can plug into
