diablosport predator tuner?
is this tuner good for a modded GT ---- intake, MAM, TB, plenum and Xpipe w/ high flow cats, 3.73s and underdrive pulleys... ? will it tune a GT thats modded to that extent well, or is it not worth it ?

RE: diablosport predator tuner?
If u have a venom chip could you use the predator w/ it or do you need to take it off to use the predator? Also do you need the predator connected to your ecu to keep the settings you've changed for it to still be effective?

The Predator reflashes the EEC. You disconnect it when you are done reflashing, then drive off. The settings will stay in your EEC even if you disconnect your battery for a week.
The chip overrides the EEC. Sell the chip or make a keychain out of it.
If you have just basic bolt on mods, a Predator out of the box is great. I'm loving mine. If you have serious mods like blower, turbo or nitrous, a Predator is great but you'll need a professionally built tune. Several Predator vendors include custom tunes.

I had my predator custom tune done at a dyno. Guy that I bought the Diablo from uses his laptop computer at the dyno to build a custom tune for the car as it performs on the dyno. We made about 9 pulls with tweaks to timing and AF between each pull.

RE: diablosport predator tuner?
Haven't figured out the MAF problem yet. Everyone says it should not be pegged but the voltage is 5.0 at 5400. If you look at the dyno curve you would think I have left a bunch of HP somewhere. It was putting down 411 RWHP before the pulley change at 6500 RPM. Maybe bad component. I talked to SVT today they said I should check for oil or dirt on the MAF wire element. I even talked to C&L to see what they thought, they never heard of it.
