I'll send you the instructions for the svt kit that Moss sent me. I need your email address

How much did either cost for tuning anways ?
AFAIK the base JRSC kit (no BBK) ran on the stock ECU program - again, that's my understanding for the Zetec kit.
Do you have the instructions for the JRSC? If it doesn't mention anything about sending the ECU to Ford for reprogramming then I think you have to assume that is the case with yours too.
Before I put on the supercharger I had already purchased tunes for my red track rat; so with an XCal 2 already locked to my VIN Pat at Steeda charged me $25 to go into SCT's catalog of tunes and download one he thought would provide me the best base-tune for the soon-to-be supercharged engine, and indeed the car ran good.
Once we started dyno tuning it was evident that the tune he had chosen was a very safe one which was also quite down on power.
