Only if your computer codes are the exact same, and I doubt that.

The documentation with my Xcal 2 states that it VIN locks to the vehicle until returned to the stock program.

Your SCT will only work on one mustang. The SCT loads your VIN into its program and is only able to work on the mustang with that VIN.

Can't use it on 2 mustangs at once. Only one at a time. And even then, you only have 5 changes I believe. Meaning, you can change vehicles 5 times before the device becomes useless and you have to send it back to SCT to be unlocked.

Also, you won't be able to use the tuner on different model year cars because the computers are different. Unless you have a Strategy Flash model with generic tunes on it.

My understanding on the SCT tuner is that you can install the tune up to 5 times (has to be deinstalled before installing on another supported vehicle) before the tuner actually VIN Locks on the last vehicle. So, if you owned say an '07 Mustang GT and a Super Duty, you could test the tune on both vehicles - just not at the same time. The 5th time the tune is installed on a vehicle it is locked to that vehicle. I believe there is more documentation on this available at SCT's web site - www.sctflash.com

Hope this helps some

Thanks
