Default Diablosport Predator Tuner for 2002 Mustang GT

Just bought a diablosport predator tuner for my 02 GT. When I first got it I set it to the factory 87 octane tune and didn't feel anything. Ran through all my gas and filled up on 93 and set the 93 octane tune and still felt nothing. All I have done to my car is a CAI and catless x-pipe and weld in mufflers. Any advice?

you installed the factory tune??? why did you select that one? i think one is just to modify stuff like gearing or wat have you i dnt think it really changes much... select the other tune and load it, thats what i use and i can feel a diff.

I installed the 93 octane tune and it didn't help my quarter mile time at all. Should I modify the parameters or order a custom tune?
