Franchi Motorsports sells SCT. You'd be a lot better off with an SCT. He sells them new and used.

If you want some custom tunes BTW, MPT should be of some good help.

Ask that the vehicle it was on has been reverted back to stock. Otherwise it'll cost a bit of money to get it reflashed/unmarried.

That's about all you can ask.

The man said he found an Edge. You telling him what he is better off with is pretty bold especially with the amount of detail given.

Maybe he found it for $20 and you're over here saying he's better off paying $300-$400 for an SCT. I'm being facetious, but it proves my point.

Sure thing. If he's local and you can plug it into your truck before buying it, make sure that the mode is on "0" to tell that it is unlocked.

Misread it... I didn't read that he already found one, but was still looking for one... whoops...

It's all good.

Is Franchi giving you a percentage for all the business you throw his way?!?! If not, I'd look into it!

Haha! I know, right? I just know he gives the forum a better deal then a normal customer, so I just like to spread the word a bit.
