Diablo predator questions

So anyways, I stumbled across a deal on a predator and I have questions.

Does anyone know for sure if the Predator unlocks itself when the car is returned to a stock tune?

The one I have sitting here is supposedly unlocked because the previous owner put the stock tune back in the car.

One source says I should be good to go, Any other opinions?

I really don't know the specifics of the tune but the car is WAY stronger from idle to 5000 and now you really notice the intake change over.

I'm going to have it on the dyno at Hi-tech Tuesday evening so we'll see what the numbers say.

It's almost like making the jump from a stock Zetec to an SVT again.

I did look back and found a dyno that was done for an SCT tune on a stock SVT.

They came up with about a 5 hp gain at 7000 BUT the car was showing an 11 hp gain at 6000, So you don't get a huge gain at max revs but a fairly substantial gain in the lower revs.
