quick question.... i uploaded the diablo tune. do i HAVE to put super unleaded in my tank??

what about torque modulation, do i change that?? i think i added WOT FUEL to 35 as well.... is that ok? my car feels very quick after the shifts and MAYBE pulls a little harder it seems. its prob just in my head

Fuel should not be adjusted unless on the dyno, you need the proper a/f meter to determine rather or not that needs to be adjusted.

Don't tamper with the torque modulation......bad idea

No, you can still use 87, but 89 may work a little better for you depending on the spark advance.

its ok to mess with it. i talked to diablo a while back about tranny adjusting and you can do any combo you want to the settings and it wont mess anything up.

Well when I made even the most minute adjustment on my old 98 the damn thing wouldn't shift, that's right, not manually or auto wise, would not shift, just stayed in 1rst.

what octane gas do u guys put in ur cars with the diablosport???? regular premium or super?? does it matter if i dont put super in my car with the diablosport tune on it??? there is no selection which can tune it for 87 octane.. and everytime i hit the pedal hard or something, there is a ping noise. idk if thats good or bad. it may just be because of the way im pushing it... im pushing hard not easing into it. thats the only way it makes a noise. sounds more so of the throttle cable smacking ya know

run 87
i put my shift pressure to 30psi all the way around from 1-2 2-3 and 3-4

and i put my speed limiter off and i put my shift firmness to 180 all the way around but i was thinking.. this cant be that good for the tranny.. its such firm shifting and im chirping tires into second and losing traction going into third gear...

how good can this be for the tranny.. probably not good at all
