I will either be purchasing a Predator or the new Xcalibrator 2 very soon . My car will be dynot tuned, no matter which one I get. My tuner can dyno-tune using either one of them. What are the advantages and disadvantages of each? Please let me know. TIA!
Predator or new XCalibrator 2
- Thread starter brasil
- Start date
SCT all the way that new tuner has a lot of features.
I signed up for the Amazon dyno-tune in Cali on 06/25, so I need to decide. Tom' can you elaborate on the features that the Xcal has and the Predator DOES NOT?
hang on ill find you a link....
I did check the kink in the SCT site, thanks.
Ttt
Is anyone here using the new Xcalibrator 2 yet?
I like my Predator.
I think more people have the predator; therefore, who ever is tuning will likely be more familiar with what works and what doesnt on the predator. If the guy doesnt have as much experience, your may be the guinee pig.
It will be Rick from Amazon. HE is coming down to Cali. for a dyno tune session
SCT 4-bank w/custom tune.

In that case, what does Rick recommend? He sells both Diablosport and SCT.
I got my X2 yesterday. Haven't had a chance to mess with it yet though. I like it because it is quick, has all the features of the Predator and will datalog and has an analog input to connect a wideband A/F and then USB out to a laptop. So, it's very easy to data log and then send the file to your tuner. Just like a dyno tune, but without the power numbers. Don't know is the Predator does all this or not.
RIck and Linn are on the fence about either one of them.
Xcal2, getting dyno tuned next week :rockon:
Just get both and get it over with. If you stop wasting all your time squabbling (s/p) over which brand to get and start getting stuff, maybe someday you will be able to catch up to me. oke: probably not though. epper: :banana:
oke: probably not though. epper: :banana:We will just have to wait and see Matt, he....
I don't think it matters much since you will be getting a dyno tune. They both appear to have similar tuning features. I noticed on the x2 that you can select different superchips MAF's, which you cannot do with the predator, but if you're getting a dyno tune I don't think that feature is that important. The x-cal 2 is a newer product than the predator. Why don't you just get it? You'll be getting a tune anyway, so it isn't like you'll really need to change a bunch of parameters later.
Dan, I sent you a PM.
