Procal Tune versions changes

Following. I have a 2026 badlands 2.7 and was not able to turn off auto start/stop. Followed all the instructions but the module and code didn’t line up.

Could you list List what module information is installed. It be helpful for tracking purposes for when this change happen.

MY22 2D Manual, Badlands. Auto Stop/Start is fine (stays off) but I do not have the rev match feature with my ProCal (I’d like it enabled!).

You should have it, just need to turn it on. See in this thread for the Konami code:

Can you post what the software versions of the modules are currently.
It'll be helpful to know and what version that was removed

Yes, I agree and will get to that. Note: even “back then” (about a year ago), it was known that current ProCal software removed the rev matching feature (and had been true for some time already). There was plenty of related discussion about auto stop/start, too. My recollection is that MY2023/2024 and newer could not have auto stop/start disabled any longer (via FORSCAN or ProCal, but third-party solutions may work). I don’t know if that remains broadly true, but can report it remains true on my Bronco re: auto stop/start being disabled.

For now, I’ll say that it was the latest version available about six months ago. I ran the hardware display for months but after convincing myself it worked and was stable, I packed it away.

I only run 91+ octane (best generally available in AZ) and run Top Tier for their detergents. I also have the Roush intake (and stock exhaust). No codes, no issues…just notably better power / smoothness down low where I really needed it. Slightly better fuel efficiency, all else being equal. An average around 18MPG lately with a mix of highway and dirt roads (running 35s and stock 4.7 gears).

Note, I don’t plan to install every release. Unless I have an issue or a compelling feature comes out, I don’t plan to upgrade. I’m curious if everyone else sees it this way too…

What kind of boost psi are you seeing? From zero with full throttle and downshifts on the freeway?

Boost pressure varies based on a lot of factors, right? I’ll just say that it is 3-5 PSI on average more than stock based on my recollection. This is a mild tune and frankly doesn’t feel that much stronger to me up top. The calibration is smoother, however, for my driving conditions. Partial throttle conditions are especially better.

So for the same day/conditions, where stock would have hit 18 PSI, I might see 21 or 22 PSI briefly. I think it is worth noting that other tuning changes are at play here too — fuel, torque management thresholds, timing, so on. I notice the overall change but it isn’t dramatic (compared to my various other tuned cars…WRX, Fiesta ST, F150 3.5EB, Audi S4/S5, etc.).

Does that track for you with your mods?

As noted, I really only noticed consistent low end changes. It feels smoother and stronger down low where I think the 2.3 needs the help.
