: Finally my Diablo Predator
Unknown303 07-31-2007, 09:28 PM Finally got my Predator delivered today by UPS. Now just have to take the long journey to get this sucker re-flashed so i can use it in my truck.
Does anyone know if they actually have to resolder anything or do they just flash the unit back to stock some how.
ob_1jr 07-31-2007, 10:19 PM is it vin locked? I know that I had a bullydog powerpup and I just returned my truck to stock and my buddy was able to load it on his truck. (and yes it was for a LB7) I think Diablo Sport will give you a hard time if your programmer has another truck's stock program in it.
Unknown303 08-01-2007, 05:45 PM Well on the U7180 model they do/will reflash the programmer IF when you turn on the programmer and goto OPTIONS/CAR TUNE it displays "stock tune" this shows what the programmer last downloaded into the truck so if it says anything else it means that it wasn't a stock program loaded into the truck last.
Which turns out to be the case with the one i just bought. Powered it up this morning goto OPTIONS/CAR TUNE and what does it show me "Custom Tune". Just great.... Well since i bought it out of the marketplace here and buyer told me it was returned to stock i'm just waiting to get in touch with him so we can sort this out. By the time i get this sorted out i might have already bought EFI Live. DAMNIT

Unknown303 08-02-2007, 08:43 PM Well i must say the 85 hp tune is insane!!! Gives off some nice smoke under acceleration and drives really nice.
ob_1jr 08-02-2007, 09:51 PM So, what is the huge secret? Did it actually load on your truck with no mods?
Unknown303 08-02-2007, 11:04 PM Just think it might be a big perk for people sitting on these tuners that they can erase the data off and sell them to people without having to do the run about with Diablo.
85 tune is great. I loved it but I wanted to be safe so I knocked it down to the 65. I don't want to risk messing up the trans in the long term.

And just what is the process to do this? You can PM me if you'd like.

Unknown303 08-07-2007, 09:32 PM Sent out some PM's, feel free to PM me back if something not clear.
Texas_Boss 08-07-2007, 10:01 PM so is it a good idea to buy a predator used? My friend is selling his and he put it back to stock and everything and is readily available so i could reach him if i needed to. I was seriously considering buying it but was worried about reflashing it!
Unknown303 08-07-2007, 11:27 PM If you can buy a Predator for cheap it might be the most inexpensive programmer you ever buy, mine cost 200 after shipping.
scottosborn 08-07-2007, 11:40 PM I got mine on ebay for 134.00. Works perfect.....
BlueBulldog 08-08-2007, 06:39 PM I bought mine already reflashed off of eBay for $150.
