Theres only so much you can do with the diablo sport I really wish I would have saved money for the hpt suite. In terms of adjusting the fueling shift points and stuff like that. I mean I'm happy with the d/s tuner for what it is but I need more programability then what the d/s offers me.

What version is it? You can return the later ones to stock and sell it. It's not HPT, like you said, it is what it is. For some people it's fine.

TSP true dual x pipe with two dynomax mufflers. i was told they are dynomax at least. they are dumped right before the rear axle, im actually considering getting a 3" y-pipe since ive heard there is not a real substantial power diff between the two, and id like to get a cat back so i have pipes all the way out to the bumper. undecided as of now tho...

Yeah I figured that the d/s tuner is fine for some people but for some of us who need more tuneablity in our cars such has fueling shift points and such then ls1 edit hpt etc etc is the way to go. For people like me who arent that new to tuning really need it. I'm a tad bit new to hpt thought LOL. But has far has hand held tuners go I'm very good.

I've had a diablo for 5yrs, they have come a long way as far as tune-ability since their release. While not as full featured as efilive or hpt out of the box, it's much better than the other handhelds. Have you tried searching the diablosport forums with regard to custom tunes for headers, cam, heads, nitrous or FI?

I dont remember what version it is but you cant record and play back it's not internet updatable it's actually u7198 I can however save a tune and send it to d/s via e-mail I just cant record. what it all boils down to is I need more tuneability thats all especially since I've been struggling with my damn lftt's for god knows how long :O/.

Get them to send you a tune for your headers. Tune from there.

Yeah, Id be happy to help if you have any issues.
Keep in mind that we have CMR dealers that can build you a fully custom tune on the dyno or street and load that tune to your Predator. They can access anything that may possibly need changing in the tune with CMR.

Thanks
Mike

Get HPT, it is well worth it. You can log and change all the necessary parameters on your own. Our forum also has a lot of good information on it when it comes to tuning.

Dialing in the LTFTs and shifting should be the easy part.
What are you having issues with?

Man, that sounds like you have some issues....the trims should stabilize under a steady cruise.
Raising the rev limiter is very straightforward, have you tried raising it?

Is it an M6 or A4?
