What are you trying to do exactly? I'm not an expert, but this is how I understand it.
When you use a predator it adds X amount of timing to your existing stock tune and stores your stock timing amount in case you need to switch back. While doing so, it locks to your VIN, preventing people from using 1 predator to tune multiple cars. If you install the diablo tune on an already dynotuned car, it will add the X amount of timing to your dynotune...bad.
If your car has already been tuned by someone, I think you can go back and get the speedo changed for cheap since you are a returning dyno customer.
