Pre-Programmed Predator Tune?
Hello-
So I appreciate all the great feedback on my mail order tuner vs. mail order ECM vs. tuner. I think I have decided to purchase a Predator tuner, but I have a question: I have an 06 MN6 Z51 Vert that I have put a Vararam, LG Long Tubes, Corsa Sports, and 160 deg thermostat. Does anyone sell a pre-programmed tune for this set up so I can just plug it in and go? I am not the most savvy when it comes to cars/tuning, so this would be a great help.
Not sure if available but I thought it was worth asking. Thanks in advance for any advice.
Also, I am in Phoenix, so I don't have access to 93 octane, only 91.

I had a tune done at ECS last week and just downloaded it to my predator today,then uploaded it to my PC.The made the tuning mods for my mods.You can adjust certain things in your diablo like fan speed,etc.If you get a tune from somewhere else,post that and I'm sure you'll get help on what to do just like I did.I think even DIABLOSPORT themselves might give you a beefed up tune if you tell them your mods.

Once you get your Predator (hope you got the serial cable and power adapter as well) - hook it up to your car and install the 91 octane tune. The predator will then make/save your original backup. Then you will need to export your original backup from the Predator to your PC.
Make sure to go to your Predator support/download page and download the GMLS2Interface program, the instructions for it, the DS Downloader program, and it's instructions. You will need these for updating your predator, and for importing/exporting tunes to it. DS Downloader is only used for updating the Predator to a new revision. GMLS2Interface is used to import/export tunes to/from the Predator to/from your PC.
Then create a post over at Diablosport's forums, listing your mods and fuel used. Mike will chime in and ask you to send him your original backup tune file. They will create a new custom tune for ya... cuz you're gonna want/need it with the LT headers.
