"This only took 5 minutes to do and I was able tune for 87 octane gas. I picked up 2 mile per gallon around town. The hummer is about as aerodynamic as a brick so I really did not see any increase on the highway. A nicer feeling off the line. It make you fell equal to the other vehicles that weigh 3 times less than you do. If you own any hummer or chevy with a LQ9 engine this tune is a must!!"

"I've owned numerous high performance cars and have done countless modifications to them to increase performance. The Diablo Predator is by the far the best performance modification for the money I have done on any of my vehicles! I didn't think I could get much more performance out of my already 425hp vehicle without spending thousands of dollars, I was wrong. This is must have modification if you want to see and feel a huge increase in performance in your vehicle. I highly recommend it to anyone."

"I used the stock 91 octane tune on my '06 Mustang GT, after I had added an AFI cold air intake and a Bassani high flow exhaust system, and the result was nothing short of amazing. The car went from a second gear chirper to one that will break 'em loose in second now. It went from pretty fast, to downright fast in about 3 minutes. I can hardly wait to get it tweaked in on the dyno! I would highly recommend the predator to anyone that wants the most performance they can get from their motor. Oh yeah, my mileage improved about one mpg also."

"I already had a Diablosport installed on my SVT focus, so getting one for my 07 mustang was a no brainer. The price was great. AA sent it right away. Installation was easy, only 25 minutes. I am only using the 87 Octane tune for now and my mileage went up 2 MPG from 18 to just over 20 in the city. The throtle response is somewhat snappier than with the factory tune. The car runs now like it should have from the factory. I will be installing Ford racing parts and the Ford Racing Tune in the future and will eventually be using my Diablo to upgrade that Tune. I will definitely continue shopping from AA. Thank You."

"DiabloSport Predator Tuner, has made a whole new feel to my Mustang GT. I was able to set my new rear gears without having to buy new speed sensor for the automatic trans. I was able to change the shift points 1-2,2-3,3-4 for more buck and feeling in the seat. I was, also able to set my fuel injectors to deliver what I want at half and full throttle. I also made a few other changes with NO PROBLEMS. Pull along side me and I will show you. My MUSTANG is now just as she should have been from the factory. She is quick, fast and sweet. All I can say is, "DiabloSport Predator Tuner", now allows me to say, MUSTANG BABY........."

"This is now the second predator I've had on a car and i love it. The first car I had it on was a manual. But putting in on my automatic F150 made a huge difference in shift speed and firmness. The throttle response is amazing now, and i can definitely tell a huge gain in horsepower. LIke it says, engineered to raise hell, and it does."

"I previously tried a SuperChips on this truck and was disappointed. I eventually sold that and waited for the DiabloSport Predator to be released. It was really worth the wait. Running regular gas I gained 2 MPG around town and about the same on the highway. The power is smoother, shifting is tighter, passing is more responsive. In my opinion it actually made the truck what it should have been from the factory. I wish they were a little cheaper but it is still worth the asking price. I will try the premium gas setting in a few months."

"After owning several 5.0 Mustangs,I was sorely disappointed in the 4.6,namely low end torque. The Predator was a miracle worker on my '03 Mustang GT. It drives like a different car. Where it used to just barely chirp the tires going into second gear, it now breaks loose, even with traction control ON. Cruising in fourth gear around 55-60 MPH it will now accelerate nicely without dropping back into third. I feel the Predator offers plenty of bang for the buck. There is nothing else I could have spent that amount of money on and achieved those results. Installation was easier than I could have imagined. Car is bone stock, with only Flowmasters and AEM Cold air kit. I recommend this product to anyone looking for horsepower and torque at a bargain price."

"I have done some extensive testing and tuning with the programmer and logged about 1000 miles with it. Overall it provided about .5 to 1MPG increase which took me from a consistent 12 to 12.5mpg on the 87octane tune to a consistent 12.5 to 13.5 on the 93octane (with no ethanol) highway mileage with the truck empty. I have not done any towing as of yet. As far as power increase goes, there was a noticeable difference. The tuning capabilities are fairly easy to access, but are not for the inexperienced user. The programmers size is a bit clunky and the buttons are sometimes hard to push. Overall I am happy with the purchase and with the ability to get a max power tune with the added modifications I have done. The truck also has long tube headers, high flow Y pipe, cat back, cold air intake and throttle body spacer."

"The diablosport predator is a get programmer. Gives you the options of changing a fair share of parameters to get the best amount of power out of it with the option of connecting to a computer and sending a copy of your factory tune to a tuner. I would recommend this programmer if you want to change the parameters if your not happy with just the basic factory, 87, or 93 tune."

"I have a 2006 300 SRT8. The Predator worked as advertised -it allowed me to essentially turn off Chrysler's electronic babysitter that prevented the engine from producing full power until my car was moving at least 30 mph. This change coupled with a K&N filter allows me to chirp the tires into second gear at almost 60 mph at WOT - sweet. The USB adaptor has some sort of clugey driver that absolutely would not work on my laptop running XP. Hopefully the people reading this have a serial port on their machine. Go for the serial connection and skip the USB. Too much of a hassle. I strongly recommend that you buy the power supply that is separate from the Predator. You will probably need to update the firmware before you can tune your motor."

"While the DiabloSport didn't turn my C6 Corvette into a 500 HP monster (it has 400 HP stock), it did improve my overall experience. The car was prone to spark knock under light acceleration, and that's now gone. Mileage is up a little, too. Any HP increase is too small to notice. Shifts are a litte quicker, too. The USB cable did ship without a driver disk, and Windows XP didn't recognize the cable. I ended up using my own serial cable."
