Step-by-Step: SCT X3 Power Flash Programmer

Monday March 31, 2008
SCT X3 Power Flash ProgrammerI recently modified my Mustang by installing a performance exhaust system along with JBA headers. I also installed a cold air intake. To compensate for the changes made to the stock set up, I invested in a SCT X3 Power Flash Programmer. My local SCT Dealer provided a custom tune based on my vehicle's existing set up. The programmer also comes with several strategies already pre-loaded. This allows me to modify my tune as needed. For instance, the SCT X3 can compensate for larger tires, it can adjust your speed limiter based on your tire's speed rating, and it allows you to tighten up your shift points. Check out a step-by-step of the programmer in action as we custom tuned my Mustang to accommodate a Steeda cold air intake.
