Ford performance tune software question

[Rangy686]

Good afternoon rangers!
Quick question. I tuned my ranger and was wondering for whoever has the FP tune, what software does your pro cal 4 show once you do the tune ?

mine below. Want to make sure it’s fully updated or if software changes from ranger to ranger.

I will have to check when I can get out to the garage, however, I don't think you can download a tune from Ford until that's updated. Have you gone to Ford Performance and downloaded the desktop software, and connected your tuner to the comp?

Yeap, i already updated everything and downloaded the tune with a voucher. I was just wondering if the software is the same for everyone or if it changes. Even the engine description changed from stock to the tune.

As a guess I would suspect the tuning software would only be different if the PCM had a different software compared to other trucks just due to different updates over time. For example I have a 2019 and never did any updates from Ford and went straight to Livernois. You on the otherhand could have a 2019 or later year and have an updated software model for "X" reason so it would possibly be a slightly different tune software vs what my truck would have if I went the Ford Performance route. Make sense?

@Rangy686 -The KC.bin tune file is the latest revision for your 2020. Ford has not updated again in 6 mos and prob will not again. This last update to the KC.bin for 2020s was to account for towing (previously Ford said no towing with the Ford Performance tune). Also, the .bin is different for older vs newer Rangers based on torque converter design change Ford made for the 10R80 transmission during 2020 production. You can read all about it starting on page 9 of this thread:
