FINALLY! Ford Performance ProCal Calibrations for 2023 Bronco model year (2.3 and 2.7) are LIVE!!

[LethalPerformance]

Not to hijack the topic, description says 21MY is CARB approved so what would the differences be in the tool?

There are no differences in the tool or calibration for Carb and non carb approved tunes. The device is the same. The cal is the same. It's just the application and approval process for CARB takes longer than the other 49 states.

Let us know if you have any other questions in the meantime.

Thanks!

Nice I ordered, do I need to get the dealer to install? Thanks for the discount code!

You're very welcome! Thanks for your business.

Ford Performance states that in order to retain the 3yr/36k warranty that the tune needs to be installed by a Ford dealership or an ASE certified tech. Either one of those allows you under their guidelines to retain the warranty.

Yep, every year the Ca air resources board tightens the noose & wants submissions for approval ($$$$) for future models to be compliant even if everything else is the same.

Would it not show up when they do the emissions inspection that the calibration number was off?

Absolutely! if there is not a referenced CARB # in the database it will be an auto fail and require flash to factory and other inspections to clear the vehicle.
In short wait for the CARB # if it's going to be registered in Ca

Great! Now I just got to find a ford service center who will install it. My dealer won’t touch it. Anyone in the Triad, NC area know of someone?

I called Ford Performance yesterday, it doesn't have to be installed by Ford, just an ASE certified tech. They stamp the invoice with their cert#, you send that to Ford Performance via email with your purchase invoice, they'll approve the warranty.

Check Toms 4X4 in Lexington, if they have ASE techs, they may be able to take care of you.

So I have to have wifi connectivity to be able flash this tune? From the instructions downloaded from Ford Performance website.

Come on Ford, this just adds another level of complexity to be in range of a wifi connection to flash a tune.

Thank you for the response! one more question! I noticed another thread trending they mentioned it is set to premium fuel 93 octane . Being in CA what if we do not have access to 93 only 91?

No, not to install the tune. You just need some sort of internet connection to your PC to download the tune.

It is recommended to run 93 to receive the full power benefits of the calibration. However you are ok to run 91 if that's all you have available to you. The knock sensors will adjust to the lower octane and a less aggressive timing table until higher grade fuel is sensed.

Let us know if you have any other questions.

Thanks!

I have a 21 4 door wildtrack and a 23 2 door wildtrack. Would I be able to use it for both of my Broncos or will I need 2 different tuners?

I literally just bought mines today, just a few hours ago! Do we have a code now ????

I'M still waiting on 2022 2.7 CARB legal

[soulkane]

that‘s a mistake

If you know how in CA. 'Los Angeles' Pease point me in the direction where i can get an authorized dealer install FP for a 2.7 / 2022

 

[ohnoauto]

Has anyone installed the tune of a 2023 yet?

I depends on your definition of “authorized”. Start by calling all the ASE shops/dealers in your area and if that fails drive to Nevada or Arizona.
