I called Diablosport just now, and asked about the K&N
First-
Diablosport is currently doing testing, and expects to have a SPECIFIC K&N tune out very soon.
Secondly...and this is something new to me-
To check whether your car is running Lean or Rich...do the following-
Hook up the predator, and start the real time data logging. Drive the car at 60mph in 5th gear (or OD) for 1 or 2 miles. Go under "Gas Driveability" in the predator. If you get a "+" percentage it is running TOO LEAN. If you get a "-" percentage, it is running TOO RICH.
If everyone knew this already, then go ahead and start the stoning.
But I thought this was cool.

the performance tune is part of the original tunes available with the car, not sure what you mean you hope the tune would come pre-loaded...

just talked to GRC Performance in Mission Viejo, CA.
$125 an hour for a cutom Tune. They estimate not more than an hour. that seems really expensive. I wish I knew what to adjust on the predator to do it myself.

You will look at the long term fuel trims on the Data Logging. That is what I did when I installed my custom tune for my custom CAI, and it worked beautifully.
