Need help with tuning, to hell with Trifecta

So I am fairly new to this community and have been getting my SS how I want it. So today I had an appointment to get my car tuned and my tuner says that the computer is locked out, probably because it has a trifecta tune. I ask the guy I bought it from and sure enough there is a trifecta tune on it.

So I take it to the dealership and they can't reflash is back to stock, my tuner can't tune it.

What options do I have, replacing the computer the only way for me to go on this one?

contact vince or previous owner hook up ez flash and convert it back to stock tune(need the original tune from previous owner or vince)

Hoping that the previous owner still has a Trifecta cable if not you'll have to borrow/rent one.

Or buy a new computer.

Buy a new PCM, have a dealer flash that one (they can), or flash stock tune back with ezflash cable (I have one if you want it)

So if i want to tune my car with HP tuners after it has been tuned by trifecta is to get them to reload the stock tune (getting ahold of trifecta could take weeks) or to buy a new pcm?
