Predator Programer ????????????? I recently purshase a Predator Programer. Installed tune and adjusted shift pressure/rev limit and was impressed at how it made the Transmission on my 2002 A4 T/A Convertiable shift harder. Also tried advancing timming a little. but put back because it did not seem to make a difference.
I took it to the track and found no difference in the ET's or 60 ft. While at the track I uninstalled the Predator tune/Put back to factory an ran sane times. Do you think my Mod's hendered the predator?
(lid & K&N filter/tb-bypass/160 stat/SLp cold air/ported MAF)
when i got home the next day I tried to install the tune and got the following ERRORS...
-File Integerty Error-
-Error Performance File Not Found-
-Vin Not Found-
-Vehicle Has Data Error Do you Want To Restore-
It did let me restore back to factory. I seem to be getting the run around so far from Tonnocover & Granetelli. I am going to contact Granetelli one more time being I spent over $ 400.00 on something that has not done much for my car.
I believe that the problem lies in the Predator Program.
Anybody ever have same problem and did/will Granetelli Warranty/Support their product?
Can the Predator be checked/repaired via tha internet???
I only write because I have gotten so much help from the people on LS1Tech.
Need Advice!!!

The Predator Programmer is made by Diablosport, not Granetelli (sp?).
You will need to contact Diablosport for any warranty issues - www.diablosport.com

Granatelli though is "co-branding" and selling a Predator
version bundled with a GMAF. If it's one of these then
GMS is the vendor and deserves the burden of service
after the sale.

mine locked up on me and i sent the predator back to diablo sport and they took care of it. it was my mistake though. yes with ported maf ends u need a custom tune im sure it leaned u out too much. i would send it back and leave a note in there of your mods and then i bet it will be better. with ported ends on an auto u have to have it tuned real good or your shift pressures are gonna be F***ed
