I love this stuff. When are we going to get some users like you over in the Ford area

You wont, because users like this buy GM's....

Here I come over here all nice, for my first post even, and leave it to a vettie to start the SMACK

First of all, thank you for the vote of confidence.

At present, we are trying to get a feel for the Ford parameters and get some Ford log files generated via their Predators in order to take a look at them.

I am also in contact with Diablosport folks who are cooperating as much as they can in this effort.

We are hoping to expand this app to include Ford products. Unfortuneately, at this time, it is impossible for me to even guess-timate when this may, or may not, occur.

Both Ford and Chrysler have engine management strategies that differ significantly from GM's.

We hope to get this done as soon as possible/practical.

This looks like the ticket I need.

I have an 02 SS that I just performed a H/C swap on. I't now running 11:1CR with a Futral F14 cam (232/234 .600/.600 112LSA) I bought a preprogrammed PCM from a tuner as I couldn't find any support for my Predator. Maybe I didn't look hard enough?

OK, I have a Predator handheld and so far I've been able to make my car run better with my predator than by using the pre-programmed PCM.

Can I use this log as an add on to my handheld?

Not to tangent, but I did an LTFT run last night and I'm sitting about 8.25 on both banks at 2800rpm 5th gear (4.10:1). The only other issue I have is hot restart. On hot restart my car has a hard time idling.

I've downloaded and installed the analyzer software...I feel stupid, but I have to ask...how do I start using it??? (hey, no such thing as a sutpid question eh?)

Sorry for the book, but it looks like this is the place I've needed to find my answers.

first, you need to have a predator log in .csv file format. then, you start up the dslogredux app, select that .csv log file, click the verify parameters button, then click analyze log... in about 4 seconds you'll have your results.

Downloading as I type...how do I convert from .crg to .csv?

Oh wait, I don't have logs I have tunes in .crg. What tool do I need to acquire log files?

right, your tune files are .crg format...

your older predator for your car can not save logs....

Is there an upgrade path with reasonable pricing?

not that I know of... it's a hardware issue, and there are no newer predators for the older cars...

you could buy an obdii interface and get some logging software... http://www.obd2allinone.com/

scroll down that page and there's a listing of free logging software that works with their obdii hardware interface...

Sorry, couldn't help myself..... Just like the Gt500's I've smoked this season...

yeah, as Grumpy said... as soon as we can get some Ford logs from people, we should be able to figure it out...

I posted in the Ford forum asking for some logs, but nobody has sent any or even replied to my post...

so, if you can get anybody with newer Ford vehicles/Predators that use the CAN bus and dataviewer app, get us some logs and we can start working on the Ford support...

Thanks!

I'll see if I can help....

I have recently used this software and it is very helpful!
