Data degradation.

All datalogs thus far have been unable to provide the info needed to tweak my tune.

I like my tune but I am not at all happy with the SCT hardware or software.

Too bad there aren't better choices.

Is this a Ford / SCT communication thing? Torrie tunes these all the time with the X4. I am curious as I have been contemplating this route for a while now.

Great question. I to have been curious. Hard to see these relatively cheap handheld devices being able to break down all the info into mili-seconds real accurately in my simple mind.

I'm curious as to what is keeping SCT from developing there Pro Racer software further so that it goes beyond the Ford 2011 models .
Looks like there is Tons of potential untaped for those that really want to dig in deep .

I don't understand the context of what's occurring in the above quoted statements and what that has to do with the PRP package. Also I am unaware of a the lack of being able to purchase / use / tune your own vehicle with a single license PRP for Ford vehicles that reside post 2011 MY

SCT overview on the software states support for 89 to 2011 MY ?

Perhaps FoMoCoSHO can address the specific issues the X4 is lacking at.

If you buy this package be prepared for a HUGE learning curve, call SCT to verify. I believe the PRP supports anything the Advantage software does (what Torrie uses)

I'm not sure either.

I have no opinions about the tuning interface whatsoever.

If you are looking to tune the car on your own you can, the PRP is $ 349.99 plus shipping that includes the stock file. I submitted the website error to SCT they will fix that. If I can tune it on the dealer level you can order a single license copy of advantage as well.

What you are quoting above about datalogging has nothing to do with the PRP. two different things.

I can get you the PRP with stock tune for $ 349.99 if you want to tune your own car. Email me if you do.

I've tried to learn to tune with the Advantage software which is pretty much the same as the RPR for the screens you see (Torrie can confirm or deny), we spend 3 weeks 4 hours a night on the dyno and made no progress.
I think there's training programs now for the Ecoboost, I would highly suggest you take it if you want to start playing.

In regards to datalogging with live link there is a balance that needs to be achieved. If you choose to many pids certain items fail to log correctly. If you do not log enough items there is insufficient information for me to do my job properly.
