read your pcm and the box code will be the last 4 characters of the file name :wink to get the full file name save the stock PCM file to you pc then navigate to "C:\Program Files\Sniper Performance\Original Files" and you stock pcm file should be in there for example my 2 stock files are called "RTAI1.TBX3.pcm" thats my mustang and my escort is "GVAKA.JJJ2.pcm" My stangs box code is TBX3 and my escorts is JJJ2. understand

so all i got to do is hook my tuner up to the computer and let it flash it...and then hook it back up to my computer then it should have the pcm file

no hook the tuner up and READ the pcm file, follow my instructions in my review the link is in my sig. or read the manual.... once you have copyed you Stock pcm from the car to the interface copy it from the interface to the pc with the sniper multi loader and then do what i said in the previous post to get the box code.

If you thought your question was dumb then you haven't read any of mine.
I was told that the v6 engine couldn't be flash tunned with out a new ecu or a piggyback ecuand Im not sure if the person didn't know what they were talking about or if they said it wrong, but I thought that sounded stupid.

Speed calibration is one of many features on whats called a TUNER. A tuner can be bought by different brands. SCT, Diablo, Sniper, etc. Buying a tuner does ALOT for the car. Pretty much too much to name. Well worth buying.

Google it.
