BEST CHIP/MODULE!?

CJ, that's where the preset or "canned" tunes come in. You can use those tunes or even tweak those to your liking. People like Monte have the software also to create a tune for you,email it to you and then you upload it depending on any mods you've done to your Avy.

WHERE IT REALLY IS ABOUT THE FRIENDS AND AVY'S, AND NOT THE ALMIGHTY ADVERTISING DOLLAR!

I'm looking on the DiabloSport website and it seems like they do have a sh*tload more versatility, and they say trucks have a 20-30 HP gain, which would beat Hypertech's 18.

The only thing I'm concerned with is not having enough knowledge of all the options on the Diablo Tuner. Like is it going to ask me what I want to do with Torque Management and Injector Slope. I don't have the slightest clue about these, can I just make them automatic or something?


no, it doesn't "ask" you anything... you would just have to go in and make adjustments if you wanted to...

you can install the preset tunes as-is (which were developed on a dyno for the specific vehicle you're applying it to) and just leave it at that... you don't have to adjust anything if you don't want to, but you'll get better performance and mileage if you do...

or for more, you can do some data logging with it to see where your average long term fuel trims are at, and then modify the tune and adjust the injector slope to get your fueling more in line so that you get your average LTFT's in the 0 to -2 range...

torque management is already disabled in the tune...   tranny/shift parameters are already tweaked in the tune, but you can adjust them more if you want, like shift pressure for more or less firm shifts... 

or, like Ohiobellboy said, you can get a custom tune written specifically for your vehicle and not have to worry about doing any of that stuff yourself...  you would just email a diablosport CMR custom tuner (like myself) a data log file, copies of your original backup stock tune file and "last tune written" tune file, their fee, and then a custom tune would be created for you....

it would be emailed back to you, you import it to the predator, then install to your truck, and you're done....

it's really not that difficult once you get it and get used to it....

feel free to hit me up anytime for any questions you may have about it, or what to do, how to do something, etc etc...

you can also check out diablosport's forums and ask questions...  a lot of good info, tutorials, etc over there...

here's their GM Gas forum:  http://diablosport.com/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=viewforum&f=26
