Gonna vary depending on the setup... best way to find out is get it on a dyno and see where it wants to be...

Well i was wondering because my damn predator tuner forced closed on me yesterday and made me install the backup tune. After doing so it erased my custom tune i had done on the dyno.

So now im trying to get my car tuned close to what it was at. I remember where the fuel was but thats it.

If you don't know what you are doing and you are blindly changing stuff then rest assured you will mess something up.

there's a lot more done in a custom tune to a bunch of parameters that you don't have access to via the predator interface...

you're not going to get it close to what it was...

as I mentioned in your other thread about this, get the custom tune from the place that did it, and then just re-import it to the predator, install to your car, and you'll be good to go.
