Justin will do 1 file for $59
2 files for $99
and 3 files for $129

scroll to the botton of the vmp website and it's the product on the right.

So not only do you have to buy a $300 tuner, but you have to buy programs for it?! damn.

Buy a used and unlocked tuner for $200 + one tune for $59 and it's under $300.

His tunes are much better than the generic tunes that you get from a place like stangmods, am, etc

VMP tuning is by far the best place to go for tunes for SCT and v6's.

Just purchase the tuner package for $400 it comes with 3 custom tunes of your choice.

Justin at VMP or Rick at Amazon Racing.

Ricks tunes are fantastic. I've bought from him before. Great customer service too.

Never done business with Justin/VMP but he comes extremely highly recommended.

SCT tuners work for many different ford vehicles.

I'm talking about the tuner, not the tune.

If you buy a tuner new from justin or other tuners they come with tunes. However if you want better then off the shelf canned tunes, Justin is the man. Or if you got a tuner used (like I did) then you can get tunes from him or other people. He tuned my car and got almost 15rwhp out of a n/a 2v for crying out loud. Needless to say I highly recommend him.

The SF3 is the same exact thing as the X3 except that it comes pre-loaded with tunes. You can add tunes to it. Just talk to Justin.
