Cluster Virginizing Service?? South NJ/Philly

oem.plus_440gc · 03-22-2023, 01:05 PM

Anyone have any places to virginize/code a F8X cluster for installation in an F3X? I found a place up in NYC, but thats like 2 hours away and don't wanna have to make that drive if I can find somewhere closer...

why not do it remotely with an ENET cable?

The coding can be done remotely, but based on the coder i spoke to, in order to virginize the cluster, it needs to be taken apart and plugged in using a specific cable and therefore done in person.

ah gotcha didn't know. ironically i've been having inverse issue where a lot of vendors (like for powdercoating) are in NJ and i decided to just mail everything to them, as shipping to and from has been cheaper than gas and tolls.

have you searched your local marketplace? i see a lot of coders promote gauge cluster virginizing through fb marketplace these days.
