Hello, I tried to look for any information about this before making a new thread and it being my first thread. Well let me get right to it, I bought an sct x4 tuner for my 2013 ford Taurus sho. The error it is giving me when I go to program it is " vehicle unsupported" then gives me a KHDK4TA code. I wanted to know if anyone has run into these issues and what was a good way to resolve them.

I think that's the strategy code for your SHO.  You or your tuner have to call SCT and have the strategy code added to their database.  Might take a few days.  After that, tuning can resume.

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

You'll have to call SCT.  Mine said the same thing at first.  They had to run a test file on it.

My advice however is to not run the SCT tune.  I had cold temp throttle surging and It would throw weird codes when I was driving hard on it through a canyon.  When I talked to SCT about this they wouldn't even send me a .cfg file for what to datalog.  While faster for sure than stock.  I figured I would just be happy with the basic SCT but I wasn't.

You may want to send Torrie at unleashed tuning an e-mail..  His 2 bar (100% stock component) tune had 3 more PSI than the SCT one and ran WAY better.
