Question Kenne Bell Canned tune, can I modify the tune?

I am unclear if there is a way to use a Diablo Predator to modify the existing KB tune that's been uploaded to my computer. Basically, I want to fix my Speedometer to read correctly after installing 3.73 gears, and I may also want to disable some o2 sensors for an offroad x-pipe.

Thanks for any clarification.

Typically KB locks out all alterations. You most likely will have to ask for another tune

All tunes are proprietary. Nobody sells you an unlocked tune.
KB charges 100 to modify your tune for things like tire size changes.
Brenspeed and VMP dont sell you a tune you can modify youself. You have to ask them to modify it.
KB used to use the Xcal 1 and it has NO user defianable settings, period.

Smile Thanks guys!

I finally got off my a$$ and headed down to PSR in Phoenix.
I've heard really good things & after I met them I can understand why. They have like 20 mustangs down there they are working on & all are running very serious HP!
Devon, the tuner seems to really know what's up. He had a car on the Dyno but he took mine for a ride & told me he could get a ton more hp out of it by doing a custom tune.

The whole time I have had the car, i alwaysfelt she underperformed but had nothing to compare it to. Well he did & he confirmed what I thought, mine runs slow as snot.

I am buying a X-Cal3 and getting a custom tune & he said he'd take care of all the little stuff I've wanted like speedo calibration and turning off the traction control by default.
Although, i turn it off without thinking about it every time I start the engine.

Thanks for the answers, it's prompted me to get things done right!
