Default predator and air/fuel gauge

i have a predator for my 99 gt. i have teh "predator tune" installed and its pretty good but in the manual (which is very concise) i can adjust some parameters such as timing and WOT and such. Can anybody explain any tips on how to do it right. I mean, i know how to use the predator to make the adjustment...and i have a autometer air fuel gauge that shows me how im running. Problem is, im really not sure how to use that info to figure out what adjustment to make. does that make sense? and its weird cause as i drive.....i go from being on the lean side...to really rich. How do i make it more consistent? or do i not want it to be consistent? see, im really confused. thanks

The predator only lets you dick with WOT settings. If you want to adjust overall fuel tables and timing, go to a dyno and get it tuned. They can save a tune to your predator if they use that software.

true the predator doesnt let give the everyday user enough tools to change everything. if u have a lot of mods i would suggest to get it tunned to make more hp and to run safe

after i installed my s/c-er u have no idea how crappy my car was running. loaded w/ fuel, stalling, wasnt able to go over 55mph w/o shaking me out of my car. when i got it back it was like a brand new car. Good dyno tuners will make ur car run better than stock

go to a diablo dealer, and get a dyno. i picked up 8 more rwhp and 10 rwtq from getting it tuned by a dealer for $60, including three dyno runs. go to the diablo website and type in your zip code to see where a dealer is closest to you.
