Tuner for multiple vehicles

Hi everyone,

I wasn't sure how to search for this so I thought I would see if ya'll knew. I've been wearing google out trying to figure this out.

I have a 2003 F150 - 5.4L 4x4. I also have a 2006 Mustang GT 4.6L. I want to load some tunes to both of them. Do you guys know if there are any that will do this for the two of them or do I need to get two different ones? It looks like the Superchips Cortex might do it but I am reading some mixed reviews on this product so am not about that product yet. So if anyone has any opinions on the Cortex I would appreciate some feedback on that.

Thanks a ton!

All the commercial tuners out there lock themselves to the first vehicle they tune so that the tuning can only be used in one vehicle at a time. You would not be able to tune 2 vehicles at the same time with one device.

Sure you can, Sniper Tuning. You just have to buy extra "bullets" and no need to buy a separate tuning device.

Sniper might work but the information on their web site is pretty sketchy. They don't even mention whether their systems support CAN bus vehicles.

I am pretty sure that Sniper Tuning does support Can-bus. Call them, they have been very helpful to me, and they answer the phone. Great bunch of guys.
