Default predator

well, my predator just arrived, and I put the diablo tune on my auto 03 GT

i never imagined that sitting there for 7 min doint NOTHING could ever give that much of a power boost

so far im extreamly pleased with it, plus it will help me out a lot in 2 weeks when i have my 3.90s put in

any1 with this toy have any sugestions for me? such as the timing? i dont want to hurt my engine though.....mind you its still under waranty!

Did you adjust your shift pressure and points yet? If not set your shift modulation to (0) for all of your shifts and you will really like it!!! I have my timeing set to advance 5.5 for both settings, I will be adjusting that in a few weeks when i Get it Dynoed!!

I just put the tune that was already set on there for my car onto my car.

Im new to the "tune" scene, so give me sum advice!

you say to set the sift modulation to (0) will that hurt the car in any way?

Up your timing all the way, but make sure you have at least 91 octane in your tank. If you don't then fill up with at least 91 and add some power adder/octane boost and you'll run fine.

No It will make the shift's firmer, so therefor not as much slipping when it shifts. I have had it set that way on mine for about 4k miles now without any problems at all, next week I am going to be installing a shift kit, and trans cooler. I would suggest that you install at least a trans cooler and if you want a shift, both will prolong the life of your trans.
