includes specific tunes that tie directly to other aFe Power products (intakes, exhaust,
throttle body spacers, etc.)

Now get programming – it’s time you drove with real aFe Power performance, power,
control and economy.

Getting Started - Step 2
Plug Your Programmer into the Vehicle’s OBD-II Port
Locate your vehicle’s OBD-II port, then insert the Programmer’s OBD-II cable.
Your OBD-II Vehicle Port is usually located under the drivers side dash as shown here.
Do not remove the programming
cable during any programming sequence.
If you do, the vehicle may not start. A
Scorcher programmer is designed to
automatically go into Vehicle Recovery
Mode and if this occurs, it will return
your vehicle to factory stock. Contact

at 951.493.7155.
Helpful Hint
During quality control testing, engineers have noted diagnostic ports with worn or loose
connections creating the potential for power to be lost to the programmer. If this happens, the
programmer will go into recovery mode and return your vehicle to factory stock. Contact Tech
Support for assistance at 951.493.7155.
When programming your vehicle, use care not to bump, move or wiggle
the cable when it is plugged into the diagnostic port.

Helpful Hint
Helpful Hint
Measure from the
ground to the top of
your tire. Place a ruler or
flat level item on the top
of your tire to measure
accurately. Measure
in ¼ inch increments
rounding up.
Increasing the height of your vehicle
raises the center of gravity and can affect
stability and control. Use caution on turns
and when making steering corrections.
