Predator Question & Code Question 1:
i bought a used predator and haven't done the tune that comes with it, i don't remember if the previous owner tuned his car with it but was wondering whether if i should tune it if i could? i know alot of people have but i have read of some threads on this forum about some people having problems with it just wanted to see what others think i should do, mods are in my sig.
Question 2:
Also i doa diagnostics check on my car every once in a while since i tookoff my EGR the SES light stays on so just incase i run the check up every once in a while. and i got a code P0155 O2S Heater Circuit Bank2, Sensor1 Malfunction. Is that code from a faulty O2 sensor because of having longtubes or just a small mis-hap?

why'd you buy the predator if you weren't sure if you should use it???
try the predator tune... if you run faster at the track keep it... if you run slower dump it.....
as for the second question.... do you have an O2 extension? is the bank2 sensor 1 code on constant???

yea since i got SLP longtubes the first sensors are on extensions the other 2 on simulators. well i bought the predator as a scan tool, and i bought it used thats why. but i was wondering if anything bad can come from tuning my car with the predator tuner?
You can use the Predator to install the generic performance tune and tweak spark and PE (with a wideband if you can) and it will get you closer. But, in order to take full advantage of the product, you'll need a custom tune from a shop that has ChipMaster Revolution. They can create a tune for you based on your specific application. Check out the sticky on Predator Tuning 101 for more info.
