Yeah, it's going to start snowing soon and I wanted to get to the track one more time this season with the Predator program in place.

My update from late yesterday said that they didn't have a release date yet. This is sometimes, well, I guess I should say the usual thing that we go through with new products. A manufacturer will get excited about a product release and give a timeframe when they expect it to be ready to go. That date ends up getting pushed out a little

Such a non-specific reply tells me we may be in for a loooong wait!

Don't you think by now that someone would have an idea of when the Predator would be hitting the market, we'll be into the next generation Corvette if it doesn't get here soon

New products are never releases when they are supposed to be. The manufacturers get all of us excited and then we have to wait for a little while

No updates yet.

I assume this will ONLY work on 2005 models since, from what I have read, the 2006 C6 has a different PCM than the 2005 C6.

Any information on this?

I got a response from Diablo last week via email that I posted but has since disappeared?????

Anyway, they answer was "by the end of the year". So start counting down. Regardless of when they do, it will be a few weeks for someone to get one on a dyno and do the "research" on how it really worked.

In my business, we call this Vapor Ware; lots of promises, no results. I doubt we will ever see this product in any form.
