Re: New (to me) truck, need help with tuner

First, that definately is an old version of the tuner. I'm not sure if it is updatable or not. Mike r Lew can probably answer that. If it is, all you need to do is get a serial to USB cable to hook to your computer, and a 12V power supply to power up the tuner, and you are good to go.

From my ...

Re: Post your "DiabLEW" Custom Tune experiences here!!

My truck is a 2005 Hummer H2 rolling on 37x12.50-17 Cooper STTs. When I put the 37s on I needed to do something to correct the speedo. I decided to get a tuner and started looking around.

I chose a DiabloSport tuner a couple years ago because after a lot of reading and research online, I found that ...

Re: DSDownloder not seeing Predator

I'm using a straight serial to serial cable. And I checked and my serial drivers are up to date. Maybe I'll try getting a serial to USB and try it that way.

DSDownloder not seeing Predator

So I'm trying to get ready for my tune from Lew. I downloaded all the software and got a serial cable. I can't get the program to see the tuner. I'm following the instructions in the program:

Power up tuner
Plug in serial cable
Start DSDownloader

Once the program opens it says, "searching for ...

RE: can i adjust the tire size for 33x12.50??

Well, yeah, like I said, different brand/style can make for different height. I was just saying by standards they "should" be pretty close.

By the way, you will love those tires! I just put 37x12.50/R17 STTs on my H2, and they are awesome. I have run them on rock, mud, and sand so far, and they ...

RE: can i adjust the tire size for 33x12.50??

Well, not counting variations from one brand to another, ( there can be a big difference in the same size tire between say a BFG and a Goodyear ) a 285/75-R16 is the equivalent of a 33x11.50-16. Your new ones should be a wider tire with a larger wheel/shorter sidewall, but by specs would be the same ...

New user w/some questions

Hi! I just purchased a U7193 for my truck. Here is my story, and then I have a few questions.

My truck is a 2005 Hummer H2. The 6.0L is all stock. No CAI, no exhaust, nothing. I just put 37x12.50R17 Cooper STTs on it, which is what prompted me to get the Predator.

Pre 37"s stock I got 12 MPG in ...
