I just installed new headers and a new x-pipe in my 2009 base model. I’m trying to get it into a tuner, but he’s backlogged for a little while. I have a Diablosport Predator tuner. Diablo-sport was closed after I finished the install. Is it even possible to get a canned tune to level out the air fuel mixture so that the car doesn’t run like **** until I can get it to the tuner? Any help is appreciated. Thanks you.

All honesty, you’ll be fine to drive around. It won’t hurt anything. As for WOT I’d keep that to a minimum until you can get it to a tuner. Although I have seen people beating on their cars with long tubes and a cold air with no tune.

diablo should have a header tune in it doesn't it? Who's tuning it? you should go to Vengeance Racing Cummings Ga.

I don’t recall seeing a tune for headers. I have the old Predator tuner, its pretty basic. I have a guy that has a shop about 30 mins from me, but he’s hard to get in to see. I was hoping for something simple to get me by until he can fit me in.
