I give the Predator an A+. My truck is fairly stock other than K-N filter, Banks Monster exhaust and 285 bfg's. I loaded the 60hp tune and the shift from 1st to 2nd was kinda harsh. After a few days it has all smoothed out. The truck runs smoother with less of that ratlly nonsense. Just thought I would give a review of my experiance.

just wait until you try the 120hp tune:eek: tanny doesn't like it much but my foot sure does. for the most part we run ours on the 65 tune and she runs great and we have seen a small increase in milage. have fun;)

Throw the bad boy on no higher than 85hp setting with a stock tranny. I think you will like it. But if you are towing, kick it down.

Get an EGT gauge and keep an eye on it.

Forgot to mention that. Also, a boost gauge would be helpful and since you should get the EGT, why not.

do you find much better miliage increase?
do you all think it is safe with no gagess on the 60HP tune?

I've increased a little on the fuel mileage. Especially on highway trips. I've had my Predator set at 65 for quite some time and I don't remember seeing it get that hot. I don't think you would need a gauge, but better safe then sorry.

I average about 19.5 to 20 mpg. town/highway with mine set at 65hp. My truck is stock with the exception of an MBRP 4" single exhaust...I tried the 85hp. setting a few weeks ago, but didn't really notice a big "seat of the pants" difference, other than a bit more smoke when I get after it. Love mine so far! :D
