How to log data

[tkp848]

new to this tuning and want to log data with my predator. can any one tell me what I need to do this. And also what tune would be best for my car 2009 RT automatic with Flowmaster cat back and modified stock air intake with K&N filter.

Go to Diagnostics, then Watch & Record. When you are done you can hook it up to your cpu and watch the log in real time. I take my laptop with me in the car so I can record multiple logs(if you are using just the Predator you can only record one at a time), and I think it's easier that way. But it can be done either way. You want to use the 91 or 93 tune and with a CAI installed you go with the CAI tune. Not sure how you modified your intake, and how it will work with the CAI tune. I always run the 93PerCAI tune, and modified it. Raising shift points, Speed limiter, Rev limiter, added some fuel... Once you get a 180 t-stat, then you can also adjust your fan settings as well to keep your car running a lot cooler than stock. But I would try it both ways and run logs to see which one is working the best. If you don't run logs, you will never know how it's really running. It took me a couple months to get my car totally dialed in, but now I have a 12 sec car and love it!

Thanks for the advice. I've got the 180 thermostat installed. Im using stock air intake with muffler removed and box sealed to the intake hole in the fender and k&n filter. will try logging some data and see what I've got.
