I really just wanted to see one in person and play around with it, and see if i can change some stuff on my car, maybe bump my timing...

And if anyone had a tune i could use...well...

On the Predator it's mated with the car until you put the factory tune back in the car and return everything to stock.

speedcal is hardwired to the car...you can't just borrow that either. Its permanent.

Its wired into the transmission....its an easy install/uninstall. It can only work on one car at a time.

It is wired into the VSS, a 12v power supply and ground, but can easily be taken out to be sold second hand.
I think he may have thought you figured you can borrow the speedcal.

A speed cal is permanently wired into the vehilces VSS on the transmission, a 12v power and a ground. Once you take it off, the speedo will not be accurate anymore. The speedo needs the speedcal to be wired and installed in order for it to work.

Tracking?
