In theory (and in my projects), simply copy what you already have and
replace 'product2guid' (which I hope is a uuid), with the UpgradeCode of the
product you want uninstalled. In the new entry remove the UpgradeVersion
that uses the NEWERPRODUCTFOUND property and replace
PREVIOUSVERSIONSINSTALLED with something like OTHERPRODUCTFOUND or whatever
makes sense for you. Make sure that OnlyDetect is No.
I don't think you need the Property tags you have. They will be created on
demand and will be set to the ProductCode of the detected products.
Your updated Upgrade elements may look similar to this (adjust as
necessary):
<Upgrade Id="product2guid">
<UpgradeVersion Minimum="1.0.57" Property="NEWERPRODUCTFOUND"
OnlyDetect="yes" IncludeMinimum="yes" />
<UpgradeVersion Minimum="1.0.0.0" Maximum="1.0.57"
Property="PREVIOUSVERSIONSINSTALLED" IncludeMinimum="yes" />
</Upgrade>
<Upgrade Id="otherproductguid">
<UpgradeVersion Minimum="1.0.0.0" Maximum="1.0.57"
Property="OTHERPRODUCTFOUND" IncludeMinimum="yes" />
</Upgrade>
Finally, take heed of Christopher's comments as there are some subtleties
about individual file versions as well as where you have scheduled
RemoveExistingProducts.
Also, you may want to read the tutorial for more details on upgrades:

Good luck.
