It’s working very well, Thank you!! I cancelled my order on the MAC CAI and went with the C&L. It should be here by the end of the week. Is the C&L tune on the website the latest one? I heard there is an upgraded tune for that CAI that sqeezes a little more power out.

Just wanted to make sure your new Predator tune has remedied your low end throttle response.

Good things!!!! I just ordered my C&L intake, so I will have to update my Predator.

If you have a laptop, do you need the power adaptor to update the unit. I would think that if you brought the laptop into the car and plugged the Predator into the OBD harness, it should work fine????

errr, I wouldn't try it. I think it tries to pick up data from the car when it's plugged into the OBD. I believe you should just use an external power souce (adaptor). Although, I could be way off.

Well I have to day something here...

I called Diablo today to check on the status of the revisions on the tune. Let me tell you. They were not very helpful and very rude. I don't know if they have been receiving a bunch of calls but I think that is no excuse to treat customers the way they did to me.

I hope they make tunes better than the way they handle customers.

Anyways I had to vent a little...but I do hope they have a revision soon.

[/b][/quote]I received an email from Scott at Diablosport wanting to know if I had downloaded the new tune yet to correct the sluggishness of the 93 Octane C&L Performance tune. He said if not try this tune. He attached a tune to download with the email. I wonder if it is the same one that is above. Does anyone know if they are the same?

I just got an updated C&L tune from Scott Beer@DiabloSport. He was very helpful and got back to me within 4 hours this morning. If you want a tune I would suggest emailing him your CALID and he will send you an attachment.
