i just got the diablo predator today and uploaded the performance tune, i still need to try and get some kind of gas mileage after all. it does feel alot better. Do i have to adjust the program to get rid of the mph limit and to raise the rpm limit? Or does it already do it automatically?

06MonteSS

the mph limit should be all set automagically I believe, and the RPM limit you can bump up yourself in the tool, but it will only take affect if you're manually shifting the car...

hit this up and get yourself some quicker throttle response, acceleration and more power:

I NEED PROGRAMMER FOR 07!!!

06MonteSS

as I had mentioned a while back in some forum, I wonder if - since the tranny and engine are still exactly the same - you could take an ECM and TCM from an '06 and just plug them in?? assuming of course that you've had it flashed with your VIN...

then you'd be able to use the Predator

Just rid yourself of that pesky DoD and track your mileage for the first 2 tankfulls...don't think you'll lose much mileage...i didn't.

Same here. I didn't lose any either.

i just uploaded the 91 octane non dod tune, so i will see what it does.

06MonteSS

good deal... I'm running the "Dialbo Tune No DOD" tune for 93 octane, so I'm always in V8 mode and my mileage went UP... with 50/50 highway miles to town miles, I'm getting 20 mpg....

can't beat that for having the power I do!!

06 SS

lost about 4% on my normal route with the non-Dod Diablo tune (unmodified)

06MonteSS

once you get your fuel trims dialed in, you're mileage will go up...

jjariabko

With the 91 octane non DOD my mileage went from 20.4 mpg to 18.4 mpg, i have not been able to get the tuner to interface with my laptop using the usb to serial cable. is there a 93 octane tune available, or only the 91 ocatna one? i will bring the tuner with me tomorrow for some data logging after work. i just installed the K&N instake kit last night and the car does feel and sound better!

06MonteSS

the 93 Octane tune is the one that reads: Diablo Tune No DOD

jjariabko

i installed my new K&N intake kit and i just checked my mileage and with the 91 octane non DOD tune i am averaging 20.1 mpg, which turns out to be a .2 mpg drop from the stock tune with DOD. Not to bad i think for having alot more power!

20.1 mpg with what kind of driving?

jjariabko

i drive around 70 miles a day just to and from work on two seperate highways each way with an average speed of 70-75 mph, with bursts of 80-85 mph, mith more around town driving it dips down to 19 mpg.

Ditto

my magic numbers are -10 in injector slope and +12 on PE.

Went ahead and put in the Diablo DOD tune (modified) and have yet to run any real miles on it yet, but it better get real good mileage to make up for the surge/clunk when it swaps states. Very annoying.

Also, that tune popped a P0700 (tranny) code right away, once cleared it seemed to work fine.
