did you restore the original backup before?? if you had one of the Diablo tunes still in there, it won't backup the original again. It only backs it up if it was restored to the car.
What does "Show last tune written" show as the last tune you put on the car?
and hopefully, you had saved the original backup to your PC
oh, and what do you mean by "he messed it up" ???

dunno... not sure what it saves in the header of the tune files, like the VIN or anything... may make it crap out when you try to do it.
Could be why Diablo asks you to send them your original backup file when they tweak it for you, so it has that specific header info in the file for your specific car.
Otherwise, they could just send you a file from a stock tune that they have, right??
Lemme IM Johan and find out... I'll get right back to ya on this...
EDIT: Just got the word from the man himself... NOPE - can't use someone else's backup - won't work.
Dave, the original backup is not still in your Predator??
