I hate to sound ignorant but, Is there a reputable tuner in town for my SVTF?

The car is stock but I have heard that a decent PCM flash does wonders for the car.

There really isn't anyone at all in town that has very much experience with a Focus. HiTech has done Pitch Black's car a couple times and will be doing Rod's. They have the DiabloSport and SCT packages respectively.

My understanding is to do anything aftermarket you'd need the SCT flaster package as you don't have a piggyback port. I could be wrong on this, I'm not too familiar with the SVT. I do know that nobody around here has much experience. RJ Motorsport has the SCT software but I've heard questionable things about their tuners. HiTech seems to be us Focus guys are going to be taking our cars.

If this is just the standard PCM flash I would assume the dealership could do it. IIRC it was a recall to flash the PCM and it smoothed out idles and a few other things. 1FastSVT had this so hopefully he can chime in and let you know what he learned.
