No I sold my Predator for an SCT and then the shop decided to stay with Diablo.I put it on a dyno and the thing ran so rich I only got 273 Rwhp. On the way home it stalled twice so I drove it to the dealers and that is where it is sitting.By the way they are stumped.And so is my wallet.By the way its not the tune when I got to the dealer the thing threw 3 codes.I'm going over to relearn the new part so I don't damage this thread.lol

Hi Daryl,

Can't remember if I asked this before, has anyone double checked the wiring extentions to make sure the correct wires are spliced together? I know I had a heck of a time distinguishing between some of the tracer colors. If the guy who did the install was color blind or in a rush it would be easy to get crossed wires.

I'm still here by the way and still on the stock tires, lol! I still put my drag radials on when it's nice out and lately i've been hunting camaros, but no luck yet.
Remember when you saw mine Moose....and the looks like pee for the radiator fluid.........oh the memories!

Maybe to some degree as we are just enjoying the cars and i have moved to site moderator and that demands a bit more time behind the scenes!

Still wish I could hear the run where you made the "almost" mid 11's.....congrats again!

i'm not online quite as much as before. i've been banned from the internet at work. i guess i have to do actual work at work now. lol.

but i find a way now and then to catch up. going to a dyno day w/ my mustang club this weekend, i should have less hp/tq now since changing to a bigger pulley, but also have put in a DS, clutch, flywheel since last dyno so we'll see what the GT puts out.

dayrl06, let's solve your problem, that's
why we're here.....give us the details...
like bruce said it might be a simple wiring
issue.....i'm also thinking it's throttle
position sensor or throttle body control
related....help us help you!

Daryl's still having problems? An aeroforce interceptor gauge would come in real handy in this situation.
