SCT XCal2 from Brenspeed

1) What specifically are the 3 canned tunes from Brenspeed you get with the C&L / SCT2 package? what are the real differences in them I mean.

2) If I also put on a corsa axleback exhaust, is this something that will make a difference what tune I should use as far as looking at it from a A/F safety standpoint, and I should mention the exhaust mod when ordering the intake/tuner from Brenspeed?

3) If I would have to take the car in for some type of engine service, will putting the factory air intake and the factory tune back on be good enough, or will they somehow still be able to know and possibly void the warranty?

Thanks!
.. and yes, I tried searching but was overwhelmed with sorta related posts but didnt find the specific answers after several minutes searching.

I would give Brent a call. He and Dave are very friendly and knowledgable on these cars. I know he has 87, 91 and 93 octane tunes. I have been told by a Ford Mechanic that Ford can tell is the omputer has been reflashed and set back to stock. But, unless the problem is CPU related they really shouldn't be looking there. But, who really knows, I am beginning to think they are trying more to decline warranty claims lately than not. Plus the dealership makes less $ on a warranty claim than a customer billable repair.

I was given, a slightly different version, from 2 of Ford's field service engineers.. Although, they did confirm, that a dealership can tell, if the PCM has been accessed..However, I was also informed, that if the vehicle is driven for about 50 miles, after the the computer has been re-flashed, back to stock.. It will erase the PCM's prior access code..Therefore, if you follow these instructions..The dealership, will not be able to tell, if you re-flashed the PCM..They also suggested, you can also disconnect the battery, wait 20 min. and then reconnect, to erase any prior codes, just as a precautionary measure..If the dealer should happen to ask, why you disconnected you're battery.. Just mention, that you were cleaning the terminal posts..
