It will come pre-loaded with a performance tune that does not pick up what mods you have, it only picks up your stock tune and VIN info. The performance tune or your stock tune can then be adjusted by you or by a custom tuner for maximum HP (and safety), preferably on a dyno. The good thing about it is that as you add performance mods you can adjust your tune for them.

Hey, my buddy and I both have diablo sport chips, and he just bought a predator tuner can he use the tuner to reflash both of our chips or do we have to take out the chips. Also can I use the tuner on my car or do I have to buy one.

The Diablo Predator tuner will not reflash chips, only the vehicle's computer. The chips have to be taken out to use the Predator for tuning purposes. You can use the tuner on only one car at a time, that is the stock tune has to be restored to one car before you can use it on another.

I agree. Flash tune is the way to go. Much easier and some can be reprogrammed (whenyou change your mods)with a download from your PC.
