I'm trying to be helpful. (Some comments I type earlier in this post, I edited because I want to be nice)

And I was in error with my statement that there's nothing you can do but return your PCM back to Whipple,
yes you can remove the encrypted Whipple/Ford Tune and load another Tune back on it. My bad!!!

But you still haven't made it 100% clear! Boomer
"Does Shelby American give you a SCT Tuner Tool with your OEM Tune on it, and the truck is running a Whipple SCT Tune?"

Or are you just uploading the Tune from the PCM with and previously owned SCT Tuner Tool and emailing that Tune?
I'm just trying to get edumacated on how Shelby is setting up their trucks.

And just to make it clear they did retune the Whipple/Ford Tune!
They where able load a different Tune.

Correct me if I'm wrong but weren't you the same guy who insisted long tube headers couldn't be used with a whipped supercharger...??? ;-) I think we "debated" that too.

It's a whipped/ ford tune in the ECM no sct tuner
Jdm can crack ford tune with an sct tuner as does Lund racing

The argument was if Whipple was going to do a LT Header Tune, and after hearing all the requests,
Whipple decided to have the Ford engineer calibrate a Tune for them.
And some of the files are now in the Ford data base, along with 400,000 other files
with some of them coming from the Whippled GT500 5.8L and Whippled 5.4L, 5.0L and 4.6L

Know keep in mind there is to date no third party LT Headers or stock exhaust Tune out there with the O2s on and all the safeties enabled.
(Whippled, Eaton, Procharger or Naturally Aspirated)

And you're mistaken about cracking the Whipple/Ford Tune, no one has crack it to date, not saying it can't be done.
If you through enough money at anything all bets are off. But you would have to throw as much money at it as Ford did to encrypt it. Good Luck, I'm out.

Can somebody unlock the SCT Whipple Tune? I haven't heard anything yet, but it would be easier, maybe.

this is the last time i will reply MTF to your completely wrong assumptions you assume to be fact.
JDM, LUND and a few others have unlocked the whipple tune, and have the 02 sensors working etc. i dont know why you think you are the authority on this, but you are just wrong.
i own a another business where we mostly do twin turbo and Dodge vipers, all the way up to Rolex cup cars. Cup cars aside, the factory Dodge has the HARDEST ecm's and codes to work with, yet we have and do continue to firgure how to open them and make changes. Ford is easier and that being said, it has been done, contrary to what you might believe.

I talked to someone at JDM yesterday. Forgot his name. I told him how I was on the stock Whipple tune. He told me that if I wanted their tune, either I had to send my ecu back to Whipple or I could send my SCT programmer to SCT and they could do something with it. I don't think I fully understood what he said. He made it sound like there was an alternative to sending the ecu back to Whipple.

Jdm did it, like we knew they could.
Got it all done via the sct. They cracked whipple/ford ECM tune and emailed me a new tune and we used the SCT to install it.
Throttle response is way better, shifting is firm but spot on-acceleration is mucho improved and the cold starting is SO MUCH BETTER.
It finally feels like a supercharged truck.
I had a 5 star headers Etc on my 11 and it pulled hard, then I got this 14 Shelby and was bummed at how lackluster it was. No more, I can do 25-35mph kick downs and boil off the 35's (I've got real 35's not the stockers)
Jdm was great to work with. Thank you Julie, nick, JR and of course the tune master Sr.
Mtf you are wrong as usual...;-)

So you sent your SCT programmer back to SCT and they did something to it and sent it back to you? Then you loaded the tune from JDM onto it?

Which SCT do you have? Did you get more HP and Torque with the JDM tune?

They didn't crack anything, you have JDM's custom Tune.

All they had to do was call Whipple to find out how to manually log on to the PCM with the Whipple/Ford Tune, which I'm sure they have done before.
So they can get the SCT software to unload the encrypted Tune and write the custom Tune JMD wrote, this is no biggie.

For a guy that is claiming to own a auto shop you really do not know anything about autos, let alone the complexities with PCMs and Tunes.

Wake up Dude!!!!

I don't get it. :think:

He is a space cadet.

Ground control calling major Tom.

Even though that's not the meaning of "Major Tom" but I use the phase just so I don't curse.

wow you are such a ****** bag. you dont even listen to yourself. read more post less moron. you said we couldnt get into a whipple ecm tune and rewrite it with an SCT. WE DID THAT ******.
you always contradict yourself every friggin thread thinking you know something. you dont-- you are just a copy and paste ********. re-read what you posted earlier. we proved you wrong. end of story
Just like yous said way back when no one could run long tubes with a whipple?? i already was-- you dont know anything except the gibberish you spew from reading and copying on the internet.

here is what you said :
If you have a The Whipple/Ford Tune you cannot load a Tune on there!!!!
Did the SCT Tool confirm completion? Not even Ford dealers can do anything.

You would have to send your PCM back to Whipple and have them remove the encrypted Tune and load your original OEM Tune back on to the PCM.

Then you can load Tunes from third party Tuners.

Do yourself a favor and call Whipple next week they know what Tune you have by your vin#
