all you need is to make sure its unlocked. then you can buy any diablo sport tuner. i think the sct tuners can only be unlocked and put on differnt cars 3 times but you dont need to worry with diablo. you dont need any other wires or anything but if you want you can get a cable to connect it to your computer, if you do that you can have tunes sent to you from online dealers. that is not necessary at all though. and yea, you can take it off your sixer and put it on the gt yourself in probably 10 min. it doesnt take too long. just plug it in turn the car on and off a couple times when it tells you and follow instructions on the screen.

Its sooo easy man. Just make sure its "unmarried" from the car it was used on. Pretty much there isnt any way to make sure, you just have to take the persons word. When you recieve the tuner, thats when you will find out for sure. If you are going buy one used, try looking on this site. Most people on here arnt looking to rip anyone off. And if you buy one on here check to see how many posts thes seller has posted, someone with a lot of post most likely isnt going to scam you. As far as using the tuner. Its so simple. You just plug it in your ECU right under your dash on the right side of your leg. That powers on the tuner and from there it pretty much gives you step by step directions. Read the manual that comes with it before hand so you have a better understanding of what you're doing. I just bought mine used from a member for $180 shipped. So look for the deals should be looking at anywhere between 170-220.... Anything more I would just wait. If you need any more help, just ask!
