    Raptor SVT 6.2L Remap for intake restrictor

    Hello
    We are preparing Ford Raptor SVT for Rally Raid in Europe. The FIA regulations over here put restrictor (36 fucking_mm) on the intake to decrease power for safety (Yes, I know... F..K!)

    Can I remap the factory computer to be able to run with this poor air? How you suggest to proceed?

    Thanks in advance

    What? Post pics!

    You can tune it with our software and gain power, but I'd recommend removing that if you can.

    i assume there is a restrictor in the actual intake tune that you are speaking of?

    The vehicle is now in factory conditions, no modifications. Following the FIA Regulations for Cross country rally, we have to reduce the factory air inlet diameter to 36mm. Obviously this will decrease the quantity of air that arrive to the engine. We have to modify the fuel system to match the new poor air conditions. Probably new injectors with less flow must be installed but my question is: Can I use the factory PCM and flash it like a programmable computer? What you suggest to proceed?

    You can use our software to reflash it and change most anything you want. You do not need to change the injectors though. With the restrictor in place, there will be less airflow, and the PCM will adjust for that automatically.

    You think the PCM will adjust automatically without reflash?
