You can't log anything with a Predator it just shows you a live reading (basically it is worthless). You can have someone sit in the car with you and look at the screen, but even then, they can only look at one or two things at a time. Spend a few extra bucks and get the HP Tuner software

Does the HP Tuner software let you log the files and everything without having a laptop present in the car while driving? I would just like to post some of the logs on here so i can get some advice on tuning.

You need a laptop for HPTuners, EFILive. I believe
there is a Palm version of ATAP, but why bother?
A 300MHz laptop and a cheapo cigarette lighter
plug inverter, set it on the passenger's seat,
good to go.
There is some kind of little logger plugin out there
that is standalone, and EFILive FlashScan I think
is still conceived to work (over more limited time
scale) standalone too. Though it isn't out yet.
But I don't see standalone operation as a big deal.
I juat have a car laptop and the inverter as I
described, when not in play it stays in the trunk.
