I have a 96 mark, and installed the Sniper and like it EXCEPT, for some reason, it will not turn on the radiator fans like it says it will...you are supposed to be able to turn on the low speed fan at a setting as low as 165 degrees and the high speed fan can cut on as low as 185-it does not work at all, and goes on at the OEM setting-212 degrees. when the AC is not on, too high IMO.
I did call Sniper and was told to send one of the files I created, and the original file, and Pat would check it out-that was over a week ago, so I don't know what's going on. Spoke with Gino and he made suggestions like a 160 thermostat (got it, just waiting to do it later, not looking forward to that 'bath'), and other possibilities, so I' going to wait it out and see what happens-as for the thing about it being a Lincoln and Sniper not giving a crap, that blows-should be an issue for anyone who was in the group buy, and for anyone who is thinking of one of these.
Otherwise, the ability to have multiple files for all kinds of preferences, and the ease of reflashing the ECU anywhere is really nice, and fun too-I would not suggest the 'race 'setting for shifts, it feels like the u-joints are going to grenade, especially in lower gears, but 'firm' setting and the 93 octane setting and minor other tweaks really bring out the animal in the 4.6, it really feels a lot quicker.
