Default DIABLO PROGRAMMER ?

Just installed the vortex on my 03 Z and was wondering if anyone has done the diablo programming with this air cleaner. Also what are your thoughts on the programmer and will it help to reduce any rich fuel cells at WOT. I believe I am probably running a little rich now. The website says 16 to 17 HP for Z06 can anyone confirm that. Last year when I bought my 02 coupe I used steve cole's powerloader and it worked great. That car is an automatic so there was a lot of benefit to it. If the diablo HP claims are false and it can't adjust WOT richness then I would have no uses for it.

Thnaks guys :auto:

When I bought my Predator I was skeptical because of my manual transmission and usually programmers are geared more toward automatics than manual transmission vehicles. But I thought what the hell and tried it out. I don't have dyno numbers to verify but SOTP dyno says there is definitely a difference. I was truly impressed. I recommend it. :thumbs:
