I have the Diablo, it is prob the best handheld on the market, but it can not do what the laptop tuning suites can do right now. If Predator would of have been on the ball and made the full tuning software availiable to the consumer it might have a chance but until then you either have to go to one of the dealers that has the CMR tuning program or do the tune thru email option.

True, but not all people have a laptop that is needed as well in order to tune. If what I heard about Diablo coming out with a tuning suite is true then it might level the field some and also help with market prices in coming back down.
Until you mess with a predator tuner you will not understand, the newer model for the LS2 cars does alot of stuff and from what I saw on the diablo website can handle anything that you can do with the tuning suites.
