Default predator update

Hi, I just updated the predator u7194 with their last update 9r07. However, the header tune and 93 octane tune is no longer available. It only displays predator tune and 91 octane tune. Do anybody know what happened to the header tune? will I be able to take advantage of the lg headers installed on my 2006 c6 with any of the remaining tunes?

Thanks, Gab

If I am not mistaken the update erased the long tube header tune as Uncle Sam came down on Diablo for emission violations. There was a thread a while ago NOT to update the older version as you would lose the ability to turn off the rear o2 sensors. Check with 06MonteSS.

Hawaii is correct....

due to EPA regulations, they removed those tunes and also the end-user adjustability of you being able to disable the emissions/O2 stuff yourself...

you'll need to get a custom tune created to disable any trouble codes you're getting...

when you first bought the predator, what revision came on it? was it already on a 9rxx revision, or was it on an 8rxx revision??

if it came with a 9rxx revision on it from the start, then no, you can't go back to an 8rxx revision, and there's nothing you can do except get a custom tune for the headers to disable the O2 codes.

but, if it came with an 8rxx revision, you SHOULD be able to go back to another 8rxx revision... I know others that have been able to.
