Default Predator STS tuning needed

okay so I have a predator that I have had since 03, I am buying a STS kit from someone so I will not have the STS support to get the tune. I am now in a area where I don't know any tuners and the closest one is a 4-5 hour drive away. So i was wondering if anyone has or knows a way to get a tune for my predator for this. thanks in advance guys, btw i am currently getting the what model predator I have.

nope... diablo predator tunes can not be shared, since they are locked/tied to your VIN number...


BUT, if you post up on the diablo GM Forum, I'm sure those guys can help ya...

If you get it from one of Diablo's CMR dealers than yes.

please no comments unless they refer to the question at hand. I happen to like it and I bought it so why get rid of something that is of use? As i also don't have a laptop cause i don't need one so to get all that just so i can try and tune my car and in the process mess something up, ummm no I will leave it to the professionals

Sir you are terribly misinformed.

Vortech, STS, Paxton, TechCo, Turbonetics, ProCharger all use our tuning software to provide plug and play tunes for their customers.

Our CMR software allows them to build tunes that can support just about anything you can come up with.

For an excellent example of what good CMR tuning can do, check out V-Series Techs' 00 Vette here, 786 rwhp, on the stock LS6 bottom end.
I'd hardly call it useless considering the car is still running and making more power than it really ever should on a stock bottom end...must be a decent tune!

Great idea.

Get the Predator, upload a copy of your stock tune to your PC, email it to me, and let me know what size injectors and all mods on the car, and I'll get you set up with a tune for the STS kit.

Thanks
Mike
