If you plan a project like this,it can be accomplished 100%.

The Predator has a tune that is set up for a stock/bolt-on car out of the box.
From there, it has a bank of adjustable parameters such as injector slope, WOT fuel (in 3 RPM ranges) and WOT timing (3 RPM ranges). This makes it possible through logging to dial in simple combos that improve airflow.
The range of adjustment (+/-25% fuel at WOT, +/-10* at WOT) is enough for simple changes, but swapping cams will always require custom tuning for proper idle quality and driveability. This is where our CMR software comes into play.

You can get a baseline in the car to get it running if necessary using the Predator, then take it to a local shop that has our CMR tuning software. They can tune it on the dyno, load the tune to your Predator, and send you on your way.
This way you have the ability to still make changes to the tune if needed (gear swap, tire size, shift point or rev limit changes) whenever you want, without the need for a laptop.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Thanks
Mike

Here's a thread I posted a few weeks ago. Results of the tune on my buddies 00 FRC C5 TT.
786 RWHP, pump gas, no meth, 12 psi. CMR tuned. Flashed to the car with a Predator. No problem.

https://ls1tech.com/forums/dynamometer-results-comparisons/994585-786-rwhp-stock-bottom-end.html

We also are responsible for the tuning of the fastest 05+ Mustang out there, running 8.7's and making over 1000 rwhp, all through a CMR tuned stock PCM.

There also would not be any powerful HEMIs out there to this day had we not brought custom tuning to that market before anyone else.

Thanks
Mike

You did select the GM tuner filter when searching? It should show distributors as well as CMR capable shops that have registered with Diablo.

Hmmm...how about these guys:

Mopac Auto Supply Ltd.
19950 84th Ave
Langley BC, V2Y3C2
604-881-4900
langleysales@mopacautosupply.com

They are listed as both Ford and GM CMR tuners, and can handle whatever you may need....give them a call.

Thanks
Mike

Mike,

I saw them on your list but Lordco just sells parts, supplies,etc and isn't a cmr tuner. I don't know why you guys have them listed as a tuner on your website.

I'm confused....this is not Lordco, it is Mopac.
As far as I know they do tuning at this shop, have you given them a call?
