    Auto octane, and how to choose what's right for you!

    I’m not saying ford doesn’t have some safety measure in place still, in the event someone doesn’t use premium. I’m saying the FP tune apparently is designed to run ONLY premium. Again, if you didn’t use it once, you’ll probably be okay but you shouldn’t use it all the time. Adams auto octane, I...

    Auto octane, and how to choose what's right for you!

    Realistic? I’m purely reading exactly what ford performance themselves requires. It’s probably not like Zfg auto octane but rather the pure 91/93 tunes. Meaning you have to use premium but if you do use 87 for example, you’ll be okay but you shouldn’t use it continuously.

    Auto octane, and how to choose what's right for you!

    “ Premium Fuel Requirement: Customers who purchase power upgrade packs, cold air kits with calibration, engine calibrations, or superchargers are required to use 91-octane or higher ("premium") fuels at all times. Any failures associated with the non-use of premium fuel will be ineligible for...

    Auto octane, and how to choose what's right for you!

    Not true, according to the documents and a representative from ford performance. 91 octane and above must be used all the time according to them because there are no provisions for lower octane. A hole in the piston is the risk of not using premium.

    Auto octane, and how to choose what's right for you!

    Awesome write up, much appreciated. The ranges for the auto octane, is that based on other mods? So in an otherwise completely stock ST, the most I could pull using 93 would be 35hp? Or is still possible to pull up to 55hp pending other factors. I’m so torn between the FP tune and the Zfg tune...

    Ford Performance Tune

    Yeah I had to rethink it and it makes sense now.

    Ford Performance Tune

    That’s what I got to thinking. I wouldn’t worry too much about warranty concerns since it is relatively mild. But I was bored today and was reading the things it won’t cover. No racing guys! Lol

    Ford Performance Tune

    Yeah I guess. I just figured in my head that the warranty for the tune would start from installation. But I guess it does make sense.

    Forscan mirror settings

    Thanks so much for your write up, that is very helpful. The one video I watched mentioned to do a backup so I will do that as well. Last question, what module includes the common changes such as disabling double honk, bambi etc.

    Ford Performance Tune

    This is quite strange if you ask me. The tunes warranty starts from when your vehicles warranty started. NOT when the tune is installed.

    Forscan mirror settings

    It’s interesting because on one of those excel spreadsheets, it shows that feature not being available on the 6th gen. Mind showing me a picture of the drls and fogs? I did plan on enabling Bambi mode and disable double honk. When I figure out how.

    Forscan instructions

    Anyone have a good post or info as far as instructions with navigating through forscan is getting to the correct area to make changes? My understanding is to use the “as built” section but not really sure how to get there. I suppose I could just plug it in and see but I like to have an idea in...

    You must have. Just checked my 22 and that setting is not there.

    Ford Performance Tune

    Because that’s what she has used her whole life and frankly what I use most of the time in my ST. So out of habit, the 87 is always picked. At least for her. Just like the 91 is clearly a habit for your wife. but either way, I just don’t like the idea of lock in to premium. But I suppose I...

    Ford Performance Tune

    Awesome write up and review! I think I’m sold on this tune other than it requiring premium fuel. Or I should requiring it at all times. At least that’s what I read on a FP tune document. Not that I can’t get 93 all the time where I live but I do like the flexibility of being able to use 87...

    What ST feature do you really like/hate that has made up your mind on all future vehicle purchases?

    Hey is there a write up you’re using for steps to use forscan? I know there’s one good video on YouTube I watched but also like reading instructions. I’ve been waiting to use my new VLinker obd adapter but have been nervous. I’m sure it’s easy but it still makes me weary.
