FORD, we want the 345 / 351 tune. Will pay $1500-2000 for the ecu update.

[SprintFg]

There are plenty of 335 Fpv GT owners or fgx xr8 owners or fpv 315 GS owners that would pay $1500-2000 for a Ecu recalibration to bring up our power to 345kw or 351kw, as long as any remaining warranty on our cars is honoured. These tunes are tested for sprint and GT-f models so I wouldn't see why warranty would be different.

I don't believe this product would degrade a genuine sprint or GT-F as it's essentially just a dealer fitted update, doesn't make our regular GT or xr8 as a genuine GTF or sprint, they would still retain exclusivity, but the overall falcon brand would all be that bit special too. These cars cannot be bought anymore so it would not cannibalise future sales either.

If there is some objection by sprint or GT-F owners, please consider GT r-spec 335kw owners, they are not degraded because the fgx xr8 is the same car or that the xr8 sprint is of superior specification. The GT r spec will still retain its special place in fords stable and respected amongst enthusiasts. R spec owners would likely buy this ecu update also.

Make it a dealer fitted update at service for price premium.

If 1000 fpv/Fgx owners take this up, the is $1,000,000+ Easy revenue for ford with little or no cost, the tunes are already tested/done and it's a 5 minute upload from dealers.. plus 1000+ very very happy owners and a great send off to falcon enthusiasts. Keeps our cars more desirable ahead of the last commodore update to try upstage the falcon.

I'd even suggest to Pass some of this easy revenue to the employees of ford or for a special closing event for Falcons retirement, be legendary.

Hsv in its early days offered the clubsport calibration / headers to regular commodore v8 buyers for a price premium ( I think $2500) it didn't make them club sports. They stopped it as they would cannibalise future hsv sales but ford don't have that problem.

Please reply in this thread if you would take up this option and let's apply some pressure to ford. Also welcome sprint owners or GT-F owners to make any objections if this request is unreasonable, please be mindful of the r-spec limited build and fgx xr8. Also, The money raised by dealers to go towards ford employees or a falcon farewell event.

Many of the fpv owners or fgx xr8 owners would otherwise get a tune from an aftermarket tuner for a similar price and more power, but to have a ford endorsed tune and if the funds went toward the employees or a farewell event, would make it more special and worth the $1500-2000. If ford don't do it, they are just passing this revenue to aftermarket tuners.

Give us the 345 / 351 tune ford.
