I am looking into buying a Diablsport Predator. I found it on a few sites for 399.99, is that a good price? Also, when I sell the car eventually can I sell the tuner to another person? How do you know if the tuner you buy is the current version?? I usually de-mod my cars before I sell them, so I was just wondering.

you can find it cheaper, around 330


you can install the factory tune back into the car then sell the predator for use on a nother vehicle, as it is locked to whatever car the performance tune is first loaded in, until the stock tune is put back in that same car


all of the diablosport tuners shouljd be the current version, i wouldnt think anyone would still have a beta tuner laying around, i had to beg to get mine

Bought one this afternoon from 2D's for 326 shipped via UPS 2nd day. Black GT does the tuner come with the cable from 2D's, I forgot to ask.

Concoursdirect.com $324 plus free overnight shipping and a free PC cable. I think it's a great deal.

Dang, that's a great deal!!

I saw the PC interface kit listed somewhere for $32.00. The serial cable is only worth about $5.00 but that 1A A/C adapter is at least $15

I also ordered one this afternoon for $319 with Express shipping.
I'm going to try and cancel it first thing in the morning and go with
Concours Direct. I've already got loads of serial cables but $5 for
the A/C adapter is worth trying for.

I asked 2D's if they carried the PC Interface Kit and they said no.

I just spoke to Brian at Concours Direct.

Their price is $339.00 with PC Interface Kit and free Next Day Air shipping.

They will sell it without the PC Kit for $325.00 including free Next Day Air; you'll have to mention that's what you want in the Comments section during checkout.

Use Coupon Code "DPP1050" on the 2nd last page of the checkout for the $60.00 discount.

Be sure to select Next Day Air in the Shipping drop down list otherwise a shipping charge will show.

Oh, and I called 2D's bright and early this AM and cancelled my order with them. They don't carry the PC Kit. An extra $20 at Concours to include the PC kit is a good deal...it lists for $32

I know this guy who is working directly with Diablo and is selling them for $399. He wrote the program and is continueously updating the programs. He is currently on his 5th update. Diablo will be at his shop tomorrow because he wants to change the program again to better the shifting points on the automatics. If you want his info, just pm me.
