I searched for this answer but didn't find what I was looking for. Do you guys run with the Predator set to kill and adjust the Attitude as needed or do you run with the Predator set to 4o or 65 and adjust the Attitude as needed? Which way gives you better performance? Thanks in advance!

Try leaving the Predator in the 65 setting and messing with the J/A settings as well as the low boost fueling. The Predator is great for low end response, but does not match the top end power of the J/A. This way, you should be able to get the best of both worlds. Hope this helps.

I will second that. I run on 65 hp and play with attitude for extra punch.. normally run edge on tow(2). Mpg sucks when towing, but the power is addictive.

I used to run the pred on 40hp and the juice on whatever. It was a nice combo. A little pick up on the low end and I especially liked the added smoke. Watch out for EGT's. When I get the tranny done I'm going to try the Predator 100hp tune and add the juice in stages.

Here's the problem:

Edge normally has trans protection, even if you turn it off, it must go by what the ECM sends to it. My experience has been run the biggest ECM then dial in using a harness box like Edge. This way you get the most HP during the shifts. However, it is also how you kill a stock transmission.

The predator won't stack in the 85 or 100hp tunes. Bursts like crazy. 65hp on predator seems to stack reasonably well with the juice.

If you've never experienced bursting --> set both the Predator and Edge on kill - punch it and wait 2 seconds and you'll experience it first hand! (Had to try it.) And talk about smoke..... whoa!

Thanks for the replies. Just trying to satisfy my need for power until a really good tune comes out.

Wait for the TTS Extreme for the LLY.
