Question Need to borrow U7145 Predator Tuner

Is there anyone in Portland, Oregon that has a Diablosport tuner for an '07? I need to tune my engine to work with an Air Raid intake. I could pay you for your help with a few bucks or a few beers.

Tuners are locked to the original car that they are used to program. They can't be used to program multiple cars. The only way someone can "loan" you a tuner would be to return their car to the stock tune first, then the tuner could be used but it would lock to your car's VIN #, and the original owner could no longer use it.

Nobody is going to do that, you need to go out and get your own tuner if you want to tune your car.

The Airaid CAI I purchased does NOT require a tune. The CAI will work and not throw any codes, however there is only minimal HP gain (5-7 HP). Don't expect a huge performance gain with a stand alone CAI.

Once I uploaded my Brenspeed tune, I felt a drastic change in HP and throttle response!

I highly recommend purchasing a SCT tuner and custom tunes from Brenspeed or Bamachips @ American Muscle.

Good luck!

SCT is NOT the only way to go... just usually the more "advertised" way to go.
