Default SCT TUNER ?

I know that this has been discussed many times, but I have a few questions regarding the sct xcal 2 tuner.

1. How much is it?
2.If I buy it for a stock car and I change something later on (add headers, gears, port & polish etc..) can I download a new tune and use the same tuner that I have?
3. Can I use it on multiple cars and just pay for different tunes?


Thanks in advance,

James

I bought mine for 375 with a couple small bonus item but yes you can you should be able to send it back in with info of things you have changed your i just e-mailed the company i bought it from gave them my new info and they gave me a file that was in a ll3 form and all you need is to downlad a file from sct and transfer the ll3 file i don't know i think i might be confusing you the bottom line is yes there are different way of getting other tunes

I bought mine from VMPtuning and if you need special tunes you can buy a wideband and use the xcal2 to datalog along with the wideband and send the info back and the tuners will resend it back to you...

Now I am confused. So I can't just call up sct down the road after my initial tune and tell them I installed a set of cams or something and have then give me a tune for that? I was under the impression that they had a tune for any given scenario saved in their data base or something. This wideband tuner you speak of.... what is it, how does it work, and how much does it cost?

Thankyou
