"I have a DS Predator for my Hemi Dodge Magnum, which I've had since they came out, and now also the new one for my Hemi Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland. The newer one (Jeep) does not provide as much flexibility as the older unit. I don't know why they (DS folks) did this, unless it was to keep novices from ruining their vehicles. You no longer have options for torque management, tranmission settings or ESP/Traction Control adjustments as with the earlier model. Other than that the unit is about the same and is very good. It offers WOT fuel and WOT timing adjustments, modification of the stock tune, as well as throttle sensitivity adjustment settings. Since the throttle on my Jeep was very touchy, this is a great feature to "tone it down", and adjust it so it has a smoother, less jerky operation. The DS also offers a 93 octane tune, which the competing unit does not. Most other features are similar to the unit from their main competitor. Overall, between the two (I have them both for both vehicles) the Predator is the best bang for the buck, IMO."

"Made a big difference, in performance and MPG. The gains didn't kick in fully until I put about 5 or 10 miles on it. Shifts alot better now. I have had it installed on the performance tune for about a month now and I am happy with it. Cant wait to see what the 87 octane tune does."

"Installation was easier than expected, took literally 5 min. Can feel power increase and see difference in better mpg. I bought the tuner because you can adjust settings like fuel trims yourself and it will hold custom tunes."

"When I was reading reviews for this product there was a guy with a charger who said that when he got it it blew all the doubts he had out of the water or something. Well it's true. If you're thinking about buying this product (and are wishy washy about it) just shut up and buy it. It made my car faster, and gave it better mpg. My suggestion is no matter what running the 93 octane performance."

"i took my car to a speed shop and let them tune it,glad i did because to begin with, he was only able to change one peramiter,so he had to download an update so he could fully tune the car..after that he was able to wake my 2010 camaro up,...gained 33hp. to the rear wheels which meens it had to gain between 50-60 hp. to the crank,oh and only gained 4 pds. of torque...overall i guess i am pleased with it,just do not try to tune yourself,take to someone who has a dyno."

"Completely different truck now, my 08 Ranger feels like a race car, it shifts much faster. I cant believe the change this little blue devil toy makes, my fuel dropped only because i have a lead foot. I'm only using default performance use. I will try the economy setting and let off the gas once the novelty of using this wares off."

"I had purchased a superchips tuner model 1855 and it just would not run on my 2001 Ford 7.3 Powerstroke. My truck would not get in a pull without the engine jerking and missing .I had a fellow that told me about the Diablo so I returned the Superchips tuner and ordered the Diablo from you. It works great and I am completely satisfied.Thanks Bill"
