Bought a used Predator 7170. Happy!

I bought a used 7170 for my 2001 Xcursion 4x4 7.3L. I read all the posts on the forums so I would not be in the dark as to any problems or issues with the device. I updated the files/firmware on the unit (thanks for the great instructions!), and I then went out and put the 110hp tune on the truck. Holy cow! The X is now a 7500 lb rocket!

That said, I bought the tuner for the improved fuel economy I might see. So I had read there were all kinds of complaints about the 85hp economy tune. I crossed my fingers and loaded the 85hp tune from the new updated files....and it worked wonderfully. No CEL lights, and VERY smooth acceleration with 80% throttle. Good job getting that 85hp tune fixed, Diablo!

Oh yeah....no smoke when I get on it in 85hp. I'm shocked, as the 110hp smokes like crazy.

That just says the truck is able to burn all the fuel commanded by the 85 tune...the 110 is a stout tune, and its not uncommon to see some smoke there

Enjoy!
