Ray, I know that the instructions go over the do's and don't's. But I was wondering if you could summarize some of the pitfalls. Like the doors closed thing. What else do we need to do other than plug in and follow on screen prompts?

What do mean lol? You can run a Roush cold air intake. I have one on my car. As long as the intake doesn't require a tune. And the Roush intake I have doesn't. Unless yours is different.

Since my car was already in the shop I brought them the Pro-Cal w/instructions and told them to have at it. They installed it with just a minor hiccup that I guess got figured out. You need to have the Trackey key in use when performing the update.
I agree with someone else that stated this updated tune seems different. Definitely felt stronger and so far..... NO CODES!

I should be getting my pro cal today. Can't wait.
Ray mentioned no performance changes were made but maybe just having a cel free update is making it perform better.

Doors closed and no radio on. You don't want any power surge during programming.

Deysha, I figured out where you can help (in this case. Not implying that you don't help greatly on all of the other issues). Is there no end to dealers trying to knowingly rip off customers??? Charge $150 for the software?!? He already bought the software. That's what the voucher is for!
It's so annoying bc in ANY other industry this crookery or even at best, the severe lack of training and product knowledge, is not tolerated.

Ok. Got good news and bad news lol. Bad news is that they couldn't complete the track key because of the wireless internet however they got it almost done, key is cut and paired to the car and the tech did reach out to Ray.
Good news is that all I have to do is wait for the cal tool from Ray to finish up. The dealer only charged me 95 out the door for 1 hr plus the dude from service is going to do my first oil change for free for the scheduling fiasco last week.
Ray was once again helpful throughout the process on his day off which means a lot.

I understand, but knowledge of this aftermarket upgrade would’ve helped, typesredline. In the future, you can locate one of our FRPP authorized dealers here.
Glad to learn this was taken care of for you, OneBadGtCs! I thought I was going to have to take a little trip down there.

Do you have advice for someone who prefers a particular Ford dealer who is not FRPP authorized?

Example, Powered by Ford is a race shop for Fords in Orlando. They sell the track key but I do not believe they are authorized to install it.
Anyways, got my track cal. Here I go to install it!!!
Going to take a video of before and after as well.

Ray how about BT? While the key is in 2nd position (I believe that's the position for the upload?) even with the radio off, the phone can still connect. Should we leave the phone inside while we do it?

Well definitely not activity on it. But I guess in your pocket it could ring or get a text which the car would pick up even with the radio off. So I'll turn off BT on the phone AND leave it inside to be safe.
