How long have you had it? For what vehicle? What condition is the unit in? Come with everything that was in the original box?

I'm interested, but you'd need a paypal account that accepted Credit payments. I don't have the cash right now.

Let me know-

Nevermind...after reading page 2 of the manual, i doubt this is going to work. It says that it will not work on a new vehicle without being completely (internally) reprogrammed by Diablosport.

If the original backup was restored to the vehicle it was initially installed on, then it can be used on any 06 LS4 front driver, 05-06 GTO, 06 TBSS, or 05 Vette.

I thought that was how these worked as well. I know other programmers can be reset to stock and used with another vehicle, but a friend of mine had one for his Mustang and said the Diablo was locked to the original VIN and had to be sent to Diablosport to be used on another vehicle. Has anyone actually had a Diablo programmer (for any of their cars) and been able to return to stock and use on another vehicle? $200 is a price I'd pay if I could actually use it without having to pay Diablosport to reprogram it.

According to page 2, it specifically says once it's been used on one vehicle, it is "married" to that vin, which allows GM to re-flash the PCM and allows you to flash it again after that.

I don't know. Like i said, i'd be interested in the unit, but unless there is definitive info on whether or not this can be used on another vehicle i'm not taking the plunge.

Sorry it has been sold!
The newer Diablosports unlock themselves as soon as you put the car back to stock. They are only locked when the diablosport tune is downloaded into ecm.
