Default bought a tuner, need help!

I'm about to receive a Diablosport Predator tuner from a fellow member from this forum. I don't know the first thing about the tuner so can anyone give me advice? Is there a preset high octane tune that I can just choose?

Just plug it in with car off and do what it tells you to do. No setting for 93 octane

tuners are self explanitory. plug it in, follow the directions, and add horsepower. i don't have the diablo but i assume that it works the same way. remove the fuel pump fuse before you start, turn the key on and select performance tune. not sure about diablo but that is the way sct is.
