Default Extra HP W/diablo predator programmer?

How much HP will the predator give me with its built in tune,

My car is a 01 SS M6 Camaro

Only mods are: SLP air lid + K&N filter, smooth bellows, SLP 85mm mass air,
Stock SLP duel duel SS exhaust, with FLP long tube headers WO/cats,
Stock ported throttle body, MSD wires and 160 stat.

I know about if i tune it myself with the predator: LTFT's should read -2%-0% during cruise & 0% at WOT

timming at 28 degs and 900-925 O2's

so if i can tune this in with the predator how much HP can i pick up?

also what is the predator's caned tune consist of , Timming? fuel?

2002 A4 Z28 with 29,800 miles. Mods are lid and magnaflow muffler. I made 4 Dyno pulls Trying To Prove the worth of the hand held Tuners.

First pull with Hypertech Power Program made 303.04 Max Power with Max Torque 331.50. Run Conditions: 71.42 degrees, 30.14 in-Hg, Humidity 31%.

Second pull Using Stock Program made 311.04 Max Power with Max Torque 326.95, Temperature at 74.31 degrees

Third pull was with new Predator, version 2.11, made 311.30 Max Power with Max Torque 326.53, Temperature at 75.15 degrees

Fourth pull was made with the Predator, Lid opened up, made 312.59 Max Power with Max Torque 327.57, Temperature at 78.57 degrees.

In summary: the Hypertech run had a Torque Spike that resulted in the higher reading. The torque fell off starting at about 4200rpm. Also Air/Fuel ratio was 12.17 fairly flat across the run. Most Importantly, the Predator and Stock Programs were identical with an Air/Fuel ratio of 12.55. The Dyno Chart shows one line from 3500 rpm all the way to 6000rpm. I suspect the Predator could be leaned for another 10-12 horsepower.

I installed the caned predator tune,
It seemed the car was running a little lean with the new tune (860-840) MV

Ok so i used the modified tune option, and i richin up the predator tune to + 10%
and now the O2 milivolts are between 915-900 at WOT. I think this is about right?

I am looking for some help to be able to tune my car with the predator.

I heard the older version would alow you to be able to + - 5% on the fuel and + - 10% on advancing the timming.

The new 2.11 version alowes you to + - up to 20% for each spark and fuel.

Can someone tell me what the base timming is and how much the predator can advance timming (ex: 1 -2- or 3 degs) and fuel

also can some one tell me on a stock bolt on car how they tuned it with the predator, what values did they fine tune it to and how much power did they pick up.
thank you for your help
