Flash Tuner On More The One Car

[Filopastry]

Im pretty nooby (that stupid is me) but capa flash tuner can be used on more then one car (five I think someone said)

Does this mean that everytime you use it on a different car it resets itself?

I have an xr6T and my dad an xr8. I am trying to convince him that a capa flash tuner will improve his car (and thus split the bill )

Would this be possible? If so how would I go about it?

no can do buddy, it will vin lock to your car and won't be able to be used on your dads unless you flash back to stock and then a tuner unlocks it.

Yep, dead right

[Filopastry]

So when they say it has 5 lives it has to be reset between each?

How much does it cost to get it reset?

Most tuners wll reset the box free if you are getting other work done like a custom tune, otherwise it is about $50.

The 5 lives is 5 VIN resets. You could need a reset if you want to have the latest factory tune loaded on the box after Ford flashes.

Just would like to know if I reflashed my 2003 xr6t back to its factory setting, would I be able to sell the box for someone else to use or would it need to be reset?

The person I am thinking of selling it to is thinking of running very similar to my car setup. Would he be able to use the custom tunes on his car from the flasher?

Iam asking this as I am thinking of up grading to the Xcal2.

Would I be able to load my custom tunes to the Xcal2 from the flash tuner?

What would be a fair price for my capa flash tuner?

Your will have to be returned to the factory tune and then the box will have to be unlocked by a tuner

[ZAP]

Yes it would need to be reset to work on his car.

ALL the tunes will be wiped after the reset, so they would need to get either custom or generic tunes to suit their car.

Your tuner might be able to upload your custom tunes to the XCAL2, but only a tuner could answer that questions.
