Great site.. almost too much info. I searched and couldn't find what I was looking for so here goes:
1: Whats the difference between the standard and pro Versions of VCM suite?
2: With respect to credits- how are they used up exactly? For example I have a stock ford 5.4 3v truck. I want to disable the VCT system- which I understand is doable but may not as simple as a single parameter change. So I may need to go back in and change additional parameters for drivability and/or dash light clearing.. are credits used with each re-flash or - just with the initial pairing with that truck and all future changes to that same truck use no further credits?
3: I'm a reasonably proficient mechanical engineer with software development back ground... BUT- this stuff is all new to me and I'm smart enough to know that I have no clue what side effects or cross links might exist between even a simple single parameter change. IE- my goal is NOT ultimate power or track performance... I just want to keep using my truck - which runs much better with the VCT system disabled (despite every component being brand new ford oem). BUT- I don't want a constant CEL- nor do I want to make it impossible to pass inspections. How likely is it that that with minimal experience I'll be able to accomplish my goal?
4: Is there a section where experienced tuners (near me- Massachusetts) are listed that I could contract- instead of teaching myself how to do what I want?
Thanks
