    Real time tuning Ford

    Hey guys,
    I know I will be roasted for this but Real time tuning for the standard ford ecu.
    Why Is it that the ford ecu can not be real time tuned?
    Is it just a GM thing that they can real time tune them with Hp?
    Does the gm ecu run some sort of ram and the ford does not?

    Let the roasting begin.

    Bugsy

    I hope those days are over of being afraid to ask questions. Dont know the answer to that though sorry except I believe you can only do that on the custom os stuff on gm stuff in any case. I may be wrong though.

    No roasting here, don't worry.

    We don't have any plans to have RTT for Ford.

    I'm honestly not sure. It is a support nightmare, so we aren't really interested in pursuing it.

    Only reason I ask is that when I got my hp tuner off vcm suite they said that the gm had it so ford shouldn't be too far away.
    But I guess no is the answer

    There are no plans to offer this. We don't offer it across the board on GM either, just a few early ECMs that we support RTT on.

    Unfortunately Ford PCM's will never support RTT.

    I am sure it could be done, but ROI would not work out well for us.

    Realtime tuning for Ford is not in the plans. You can set up charts for anything in VCM Scanner for making corrections and viewing data.
