So today my tuner hooked up his laptop to turn off the double honk feature. Forscan will not even recognise the the BCM.

I like to disassemble things.
Can you elaborate on what your screen showed when Forscan wouldn't "recognize the the BCM."

I was standing outside the car. I will be back at his shop wen he installs the splash guards. I will take a screen shot and post it. My hearing is very much shot after siamese tours in Nam.

From RPI. I do not believe Ford has them. These are no drill vs the rok blox.

Buy the premium btw, better material. Worth the up charge IMHO. Had them on the HEP and the Bullitt. They blend in nicely.

Evidently due to the Mach 1 being as was the Bullitt a "frankenstein" motor", the PCM and tune is specific to this car. As such, it will be a nightmare to tune and/or install FI. That is the primary reason Roush/Ford Performance never had a blower kit for the Bullitt. I was told that the electrical harness had different connectors and that the limited take rate did not justify the cost of a new tune and, wiring harness.

so you really cant connect forscan? I see that as being weird, I would imagine it would recognize it no different than anything else.

I know some tunes, it locks out forscan, are you saying this mach 1 did it as well? thats sad if so

I don’t think the lack of a roush blower for the bullitt was related to being difficult to tune. The limited take rate just made it not worth the effort. Whipple has a bullitt kit. So does procharger. Plenty of tuned bullitts out there.

Mike, will they work with the front fender flares and the rear 'half-flares' on the HP? Can you post some pics once they are on your car?

Site says fits 2015 to 2017. I remember now I had these on my 2015 LE. These fit without issue on 2021?

RPI sucks at updating their website.
