Default Diablo handheld question

I tried to install the "performance" onto my car from the handheld and it seemed like everything went fine but when I went to view parameters, everything looked like it did when I had the factory tune (i.e. 0.00% WOT Spark, 0.00% Fuel Enrichment, and the fans were the same ~225F). Are these supposed to change when the performance tune is installed? I went in and manually set the fans to come on at a lower temp but that is all I had the ***** and know how to do. And when I go to options and look under tune, it says Diablo or Predator tune, I can't remember and before I put it in it said stock tune.

Cliff notes: Are the paramaters supposed to change when I go from the stock tune to the performance tune?

What did the instruction manual say about this? As far as I remember, the spark and fuel adjustments you can make are supposed to be above and beyond the canned tune.

performance tune bumps the wot timing a couple degrees, THAT'S IT. If you acutally have access to a full software tuner, you will see that WOT areas and mid rpms timing has been ramped a few degrees.

The rest is up to you, change the fan temps, WOT PE, etc The zero % timing and fuel is starting from the base of the performance tune
