Has anyone heard any update on Ford offering a tune like they do the Ranger? I've been tweeting at Mike Lavine but he hasn't answered lol.

It might eventually come. For timing comparison, even though this tune existed on the Ranger and 2.3 Mustang for a good while before the first 2021 Bronco 2.3 ever was delivered, it still took until October '22 for the tunes to be released for the Bronco. They did release a tune for the 2.7v6 at the same time, though.

I guess my point is that while, no, I haven't heard anything the amount of time the Maverick has been out doesn't really indicate whether they will do a Ford performance calibration or not.

that's not the same thing. you might know this, but someone else reading this thread may not.

the OP is talking about the Ford factory performance calibration which basically gives you a procal device and they use it to reflash and send you on your way. here's the one for the Ranger that the OP mentioned.

it's covered under the factory warranty. that's the key difference.

It's not coming. The 2.0 EB has been in production a dozen Ford/Lincoln vehicles since 2011.

They never did it for the Focus ST - they aren't going to do it for the Maverick.

Well f*ck me......

My apologies on the "NEVER DID IT ON A FOCUS ST" line.....

I still wouldn't hold out much hope.
it's not hard for them to do, it just requires 91+ octane and they did not want to sell any of these turbocharged vehicles with a premium fuel requirement.

it seems that someone at Ford decided that the hp & torque losses were acceptable in order to be able to sell vehicles that only require 87.

I use 91+ anyway. I destroyed one turbocharged engine rated to run on 87, luckily under warranty, and it was not a Ford.
