Mechanic installed a new ProCal under warranty. Took 45 minutes. This one is registered to me and everything’s running great. Just remember do not plug in or unplug the ProCal unless the truck is completely shut off. Do change any thing unless a minimum 20 amp battery charger is hooked up.

Kinda off topic to this thread, but where can I find a link to a Procal Tune for a 2025 RR?

^^ My understanding is that Ford Performance sells a tuner that is warranty backed for the RR? Its called a ProCal? Am I incorrect?

Another update today. Is there a site where we can review release notes to see what the version updates are?

Ford Performance sells a tuner box call the ProCal. You can buy it directly from Ford, or from many places online. The box is used for many Ford vehicles, but you buy one specific to your vehicle. Inside the box is a code that will allow you to download the tune for the specific vehicle you bought for. It involves creating an account, and installing a the ProCal software on your computer.

Once downloaded it links that performance tune file to your vehicle's VIN, so you can't just give the .bin file to anyone.

This video is for a Bronco, but it's the same process:

If your ford dealer installs it then yes covered under warranty. If you install the tune then that could give them a possible out. Google Ford Performance and look at their website and it will tell you a lot. Will add about 50hp. Dealer will charge about $200 to install but if you want to install it, it is very easy. Be sure and follow directions carefully, especially with a proper battery charger. It’s a great tune for what it cost. Go for it, I did.

Appreciate the clarity everyone.
Here it is a Levittown, but if you are going to have your dealer do it, you may have to buy it from them.

It doesn't have to be a Ford dealer. Note that it says:

  • 3yr/36k mile Ford Performance warranty from new vehicle in-service when installed by a Ford dealer or ASE/Red Seal certified technician. Please contact the Ford Performance Parts Techline for warranty registration.

I bought mine from Tire Rack, they had it at a much lower price than Ford or many other places. I did the whole registration part myself then took it to a dealer to literally just hit a few buttons to start the tuning process. I was at the dealer for maybe 15 minutes and most of that was letting the tune load.

One of the biggest benefits of the Ford Performance tune is the shifting in Sport mode. Smooths it out significantly.
