    Is that possible on the 2.3L Broncos? I can't imagine there would be much difference, in terms of strategy, between a Bronco and a Ranger. When you swap the PCM, is it just a matter of doing a PMI with FDRS to write the VIN? Or is there still some unlocking that needs to happen internally (bootloader hack, etc)?

    Heard a rumor that the owner of Full-Race.com purchased a new Raptor Ranger and feels he will be able to tune it, by transferring hardware/software from his F-150 Raptor!??

    I didn't really understand exactly how he plans on doing it, but he did mention the subject at the tail end of a podcast with HP academy.

    The 2.3L uses a different ECU entirely.

    Several have been tuned this way already.
