New Dyno #s - Custom Predator Tune

[03 DSG Snake]

Had a problem with my first Predator - it was cutting out at only 6000rpm. The rev limiter was programed at 7500rpm but the computer kept pulling it at 6k.

Shawn Ellis at SoCal Diablo swapped the units for me and took care of the new tuning.

My last session left me with 435rwhp/450ft-lbs. We did not give it any more due to the RPMs cutting out too soon it seemed a might bit pointless.

After my session this morning, my final 2 pulls brought me:
462.3/456.4
454.7/460.7

I was very happy with the results. Mods are in sig, only using a Metco? interchangeable upper pulley with 2.93 ring, no idlers, no headers.

Dyno graph showed a bit of slippage above 6k, but I can't tell for sure due to my lack of a real boost guage.

Can't post the graph just yet since I'm at work.

Thanks to Shawn at SoCal Diablo for helping me with the rev limiter problem and getting me a bitchin new tune.

Probably a dumb question, but is there a way that tunes can be emailed between people for use with the Predator?

I'm pretty sure each tune is coded with the respective car's VIN # to keep people from getting them without paying :bash:

My dealer does custom tunes for free as long as you bought the Predator from him.

I actually have the standard #14858 Borla kit not the stingers.

I love the sound. Could be a tiny bit louder, but its loud when you're outside the car. Its hard to notice how loud it is from inside.
