considering that from 1995-05 there were about 4 or so different languages, i'd be surprised if this talked to any of them. so i'll go with no: its no good.

This isn't a programmer in the sense that you are thinking of. It doesn't allow for manipulation of the tune.

This unit allows for repair facilities to flash the most recent updated files from the manufacturers to correct driveability problems.

It can't do the 95 either. 95 has a eprom that unless it has a built in uv eraser, theres no way.

We have to add eeproms just to tune the 95.

I actually heard of a guy buying a similar unit for his focus (please don't flame). The programmer he bought, not sure if it was the same one, but it did what hpt or tunerpro does, allowed changing of tables/constants. These programmers are cheap, and the constants they allow you to change are the same as you can find in free/donateware or hpt.

Don't waste your money on it, not for our cars anyway..
