Well I know the physical parts are on correctly and to spec and torque settings on each bolt/screw. as for the flash I was never given any error codes and from my understanding on these cars with the new parts if it still had the old tune it wouldn't run correctly. IM assuming if the new tune was flashed wrong the same would be true. The car runs fine im just not getting this holy crap this is awesome that others are saying they are getting. Maybe ill message ford performance and see if they have any ideas. As of now im not impressed and I personally am in the not worth the money camp.
Yeah, you're right, I had trouble downloading the tune at first and moved the car back in garage and it was running horrible with only the parts and no tune, had error codes all over the place. So you would have noticed that. I agree it's not a "wow" or "holy crap" improvement overall, except for me that 2nd gear improved big time from stock. If I were you i would definitely message Ford and tell them it's not working out. Possibly getting a refund. Maybe go after market then. I'll be doing that later down the road as well most likely.

Has anyone mounted their ProCal device? It comes with a windshield mount. Wasn’t sure if anyone routed the cord behind the dash to mount it cleanly in the car?

Isn't the procal a one and done? Didn't think it could data log or monitor or perform functions such as kam resets etc like an nguage or bdx. Just not sure the point of mounting if not continuously using?

I am thinking if there are any updates we would have to do another download with the ProCal tool, correct? Are there usually any updates to this type of kit from Ford?

I doubt I would ever use any of this stuff but it might still be cool to have the device mounted.

Also anyone know if this kit can be resold or is the tune locked to your vin? as in once you bought it it's yours period?
@Briebee72, I emailed Ford Performance out of curiosity, along with a few other questions. Here is their response:

Ford Performance Rep said:
There is a lot to the process of getting our kits to be 50 State Legal and approved with an EO number.
So, we cannot sell the tunes separately, and once his tool is used to load his tune to his PCM, it is VIN locked.
You the Procal 4 can be used for gauges on a different car but not for tuning.

Have they updated the procal4? Last time I checked, none of the gauges worked. It also needed to be updated so it switched off after exiting the car.

I haven’t tried any of the gauges but there was an additional update available after I had already loaded the calibration.

Someone on here already posted up their datalog, from the procal 4, and asked if the car was pulling timing. There was no response to the thread so it got pushed out but it can do quite a bit.

Air inlet installed and everything back together.
The good news is that everything fits back together much easier after a week of driving.

looks great, love this intake. How are the IAT’s?
I was one of the people that didn't receive the dirty air inlet with the rest of the kit so I drove it for a week without. It's installed now so I'll monitor them this next week.
It's going to be 100°+ so it will be a good test.
