I've been wondering since EFI live now makes programs for the cummins, does anyone think they will start working with Ford's 6.4 or 6.7 down the road? The duramax and cummins guys really seem to like there EFI live.

no for a couple reasons

Ford does not use a bosch system like cummins and duramax, so there is no real reason for them to support it

also even years ago sct had the market pretty well and allowed for custom tuning on a high level of what efi live is comparable to.

Plus now with the introduction of MCC for H&S it really kinda eliminates the need for it to be honest. Yes there are some things you can do with efi live that cant be done with mcc but the playing field has been leveled now.

It would be nice if anything for the price (if it stayed the same as Cummins and Duramax) compared to H&S + MCC + Custom tunes.

This is the only reason I could really see why anyone would want it for a 6.4.

Correct me if I am wrong, but CP4 is Bosch.
So why wouldn't EFILive try and release something on the 6.7 PSD when it is using the same injection pump as the current Duramax?

I'm referring to the ecm. And with the recent epa stuff there is becoming less and less reasons to be able to tune them. Ilk be honest I don't know what's controlling the 6.7 but I doubt it's a bosch

EFI Live only supports 06-09 Dodge because they use the same CAN communication protocol as the GM stuff...

I doubt they will ever support earlier or later Dodge as other companies already have custom tuning options for them

Also, would be no benefit to just ecm tuning with efi live as I highly, highly doubt they would support tcm tuning as they do not on 6.7 cummins. MCC and EFI Live are not too far off from each other either as one very well known EFI Live tuner helped develope the MCC software. H&S is on top of custom tuning world for sure especially once they get data logging. They will support 03-05 SCI cummins before EFI Live will as well.
