mr_tw: your looking for an SCT turner, its just plug in a chip and go

Stock ford clutches are horrible i would go with a spec stage 2 or a Centerforce.

[mr_tw]

SCT do you have a website for that? and for the clutch with a stage 2 would I loose the nice streetable feel and low effort of the stock clutch, and wouldnet a stage 2 be overkill for 150 hp?

[mr_tw]

i found the sct tuner, but i still have some q's about it, i see that you can change it from program to program at anytime, but where is that switch going to be located? it looks like it's right on part of the chip itself, so were would that be located?

where ever you wanna put it, I dont have one myself

stage 2 is fine for 150hp

[mr_tw]

when i say 150 hp, i just mean like a solid 20 hp gain over stock, 20 flywheel hp,not 150 to the ground lol

I have the magnaflow on my 02 sounds like garbage (unless you like the ricer sound) tearing it of and putting a borla, sounds much better on my friend's focus.
