Default DiabloSport Predator U7194 ?

I have a Diablo Sport Predator U7194 and thinking of putting the canned 93 Tune in my Stock 2009 C6 Coupe 6 Speed Auto.
Right now the tuner only has the 9r07 update.
Would it need to have the latest update?

Used the 93 Tune years ago in a 2007 EXT and there was a noticeable improvement.
Except, I wouldn't say it was bad, or a problem, but it was not smooth on acceleration up through the throttle range and probably needed to be logged and fine tuned.
Can anyone tell me if it would be worth putting the canned 93 Tune into my C6 and expect it to be fine just the way it is.
I'm more curious right now and not dead set on installing it.
Also wondering if it would be better to just buy/go the Diablo Intune.

Just had the Catalytic Emissions Recall done.
So it has the 2 new replacement Cats, and the 2 additional Cats added under the tunnel, plus the ECM re-flashed per the Recall.
Any thoughts and info is appreciated in advance, Thanks

you'd be better off trading it in to diablosport for their $100 credit towards the purchase of a new inTune or Trinity from them, because there is no tcm/tranny support with a predator, so you can not adjust any transmission settings like shift firmness, how quick it shifts, shift points, tranny torque management, etc...

that's an ollld tool.. predator's are all dead and gone.. they were all discontinued 4+ years ago...

you can contact support@diablosport.com about their trade-in program...

Thanks Lew for the info on the trade in Credit.
I am leaning towards getting the inTune eventually.
Installed the Predator Performance tune today and so far so good.
Only thing was after the tune was installed, the DIC mileage info was haywire.
Instant Mileage stuck at 70 and Average Mileage stuck at 99.99
Disconnected the battery for 5 minutes and that fixed it.
I like the improvement and will see how I feel after I put some miles on it.
Then if I'm not totally happy with it the way it is, I'll get the inTune and contact you about getting it tweaked.
Thanks again, Frank

The PCM tune gains are solid, but the TCM just adds that extra little bit to make it all perfect

I saw your email about the trade in today, let is know if you decide to pull the trigger.

Thanks
