Oof. Yikes my friend :)

Well on one hand, if you get all the bolts-on, you can obviously take them off and transfer them to the new vehicle when that time comes but the other thing to keep in mind is that there's no guarantee you'll be able to use them on the 2021 model. It's been 3 years and there have been rumors of another slight refresh of the s550 platform on the horizon.
Or I might have to settle for a decent 2nd hand...LOL. Hope it won't

Oh, do you personally run any tune on your 'Stang?
Yes I have a tune from PD tuning. Running a Cobb tuner. Sig hasn't been updated yet. I'm still going through revisions so I don't have my final tune yet,but so far I'm loving it. Highly recommend PD Tuning

Cobb is the way to go. I have used Tune+ for years, and only heard good things about PD.
SXT tuners do not have close to the flexibility and usefulness of a Cobb.unit

Also, the tuning device is locked to your vin only when in use. You can unmarry it and use it in a different mustang

and Cobb makes off the shelf tunes, but they are marginal at best.

All of those tuners specialize in the gt not Ecoboost. While I would recommend you don't tune your leased car. If you are going to then stick with a Cobb device and either pd tuning, tune+ or stratified
if I am, I apologize for missing the boat. I have seen with my 2 eyes though. Lund tunes for Ecoboost Stangs.

Yes, Lund does tuning and their tuning device is the N guage. Another good choice.

Stay far away from boost max and pedal max units.

I've been looking at it for a while, so I can run the cobb tuner on another EB with out extra cost?
That would be amazing.

I see, thanks. Do you have to bring yr car to the shop for PD tunes? That might be a bit too much hustle for me. But thank you anyway.

All pro tuning is remote.
You do datalogs,send the file to the tuner, and you get tweaks.
I want through 4 revisions until my perfect tune.

I have 390 Reliable crank HP with Tune+

Any way, I'm certainly not in a hurry to get the tuner, (cause the corona thing, stinky CCP:thumbsdown::explode:) I will probably get cobb later for my future EB. Hope everyone stay safe!

Catted downpipe, but tuned every step of the way.
just added a resonator delete and will do some datalogs this week for a tune revision.I

every time I did a mod, Tune+ did a.revision for me.

hum, down pipe and tuner sure might be too far for a leased car, bet dealer won't be happy. Right, with out the tune (with stock tune for service ) I will not even be able to drive to the dealer... But that "390" number just wiped the idea for a GT clean of my head.
