When can I tune my FORD RANGER ?

[TorqueAutosports]

I have a 2002 Ford Ranger EDGE.

The Ford Ranger is, needless to say, one of America's Best Selling Trucks.
It's reliable, cheap, powerfull with a V6...Yet it is ignored in the world of aftermarket tuners! WHY?

When will the Trinity be ready for ME?




...on a side note
-I also own a 2005 Mustang V6...can I tune both cars with this one tuner (when they are both compatible)???...or will I need to buy two tuners; one for each car?

Thanks

nope, won't have anything for a ford ranger...

and no, can't tune both vehicles at the same time with only one predator... you would need to buy 2 separate predators - one for each vehicle...


but it won't matter anyway, since it won't be a problem/issue for you since the ford ranger won't be supported anyway...

Glad Lew said it first so I don't get reamed.

Why would anybody support a vehicle with such a pathetic motor? The 4.0 is garbage. It should have went in the trash with the old 2.3. Yes, they support the V6 Mustang, but only after Ford did a motor upgrade. Won't find anything for the POS 94-98s.

First of all...I was asking about the new TRINITY.

Second of all...what?! How could you say that the Ford Ranger is so Crap with it's 3.0! It produces quite a bit of power with low gas mileage. It can tow broken car's back to where I need them. It's perfect for a work truck, which is what it does for me. I use 93 octane gas on the Ranger and want to get the most out of it. I use the high octane gas anyways to allow my engine to extend it's life. If I already am using the gas, why not get more power and economy out of it?

Also, you need a tuner for more than just instant increased horsepower. I have used a tuner on my Mustang several times other than the first...for instance, when I changed my Rear End gears, when I installed nitrous, and for the initial tune...

On my truck I will need it for those plus some larger rear tire's that will go on it soon.


Saying the need for a tuner because you're car isn't good enough for it just shows your lack of knowledge on Vehicles.

ALSO READ THE POST..SOME OF YOU CLEARLY DID NOT...IT'S A 2002 RANGER, WHICH I WOULD LIKE SUPPORT FOR THE NEW TRINITY TUNER! DON'T REPLY IF YOU DON'T READ!

TORQUE, we have never offered a flash programmer for the 02 Ranger, and I cant say that it is very high on the list of vehicles to add support for, as we have not seen a big market there.

Our U7157 Predator for the newer Rangers was not quite the hit we hoped it would be, and that does not help push us toward doing a bunch of R&D to add support for something that will not sell well, it is a simple business decision.

As for your 05 Mustang, well thats our bread and butter, and we can help you out there no problem.

Thanks

Hey Mikel,

Honestly, if you had included a towing program, I would have bought one already!
Pretty much the only thing that is holding me back. I mean it is a TRUCK after all.
I can get a custom tune for it but it's another $75.

Most of the parts people I have talked to recommend the Predator, so I'll more then likely get one anyway.
Just my 2c.

Specific tow tunes are a marketing scheme, it means you got half of a tune

Our tunes are designed for use while towing or anything you do with your truck.

Thanks
