Default Locked tune question?

Hey everyone, I bought my built 2002 ws6 about 6 years ago from a guy. I'm wanting to do some more building but I'm not sure if the cars tune is locked or not or even had a real tune. I know my cars had heads and cam and stuff but never thought about asking tuning info. I bought it in Tennessee and have know way of getting ahold of the guy to find any info. Do most tuners lock their tunes or no? What do you guys think?

Good tuners usually don't lock their tunes because they aren't afraid of other people seeing their work.

And some tuners are good enough that they protect their work. I would say guys like jimmy, soundengineer, Doug and a few others around here would have every right to protect what they do

Go to the local section and find someone that has tuning software and see.
