Figured I'd ask if maybe anyone has the Diablo Predator and maybe has the downloads installed on their 'puter. I need to update mine and can't get my 'puter to coooperate. Thanks!!!

Thanks for the info, but I already own it. I was just having trouble getting my 'puter to do the upgrade download. I found someone to do it for me so all is good and have the 87 tune installed. So far, I'm happy with it. Just had to start buying better quality gas. The local Hess station mid-grade doesn't work well with the tune. Put some Shell 89octane in it and works much better now. No more fillups at TradeMart.

Probly will when the weather gets nicer. Don't really need hi-octane to drive to work and back. 'Tis not the season. :)

Bill,
Glad to see you got the tuner from Jeff. The canned tune that came with the programmer is ok but like SS said above you really want to get a tuner to custom tune your car then load it into your programmer. I used Horsepower Solutions in Hampton and was very happy with their service and their facility. The custom tune is probably worth another 20hp on your car.
