Default Diablo Predator

I just ordered a DiabloSport Predator tuner and, hopefully, it will be here in a week.

Meanwhile, any of you used one and what can I expect?

Don't flame me for not using a local tuner because there are'nt any out here!

No flame here,I have an older version of the Predator and I like it.

No doubt that a dyno tune is better,but I have few mods and I like the idea that I can make small changes AND/OR reinstall the facto tune within 15 min.

Don't know the added HP/TQ but,I would say approx 15 ponies and maybe 5 extra lbs of tq.That's my guess,but it does feel stronger,probably mostly due to the added timing the "Performance Tune" or "93 Octane Tune" adds.I don't drag or track my car,so this type of tune is ok for me.

I also adjusted "CAGS" out and changed my fan settings to suit my needs.

I joined the forum and read and learned how to use it.It's very interesting & some fun too!Enjoy....and make sure to register online.
