Does Diablo ever do upgrades / swaps of tuners?
you can trade-in a predator towards the purchase of a new/different version predator and get the new predator for $250...

you can trade-in a predator for credit towards the purchase of a Trinity and get the Trinity for $499....

Hmm, that's not that great of a deal. I can buy on line a new one for $266. Guess I'll hang on to this one for now. Thanks

you can buy a predator online for 266, and you can get it from diablo for 250... how is that not a better deal?? :lol:

and if you're talking about a Trinity for only 266, well, then you have no warranty for it, since it's used... so if something ever happens with it, you'll end up paying to get it fixed....

The way to go is to buy a new Predator and sell the old one. Even the older version is fine for guys with 09-10s and you could probably get around $175-$200 out of it.

Thanks. Thought about that. For right now I guess I'll just enjoy the new power from this version that I now have. :) Might sell it down the road to upgrade.

One of the issues I came across was it was running perfectly for a week, then it started reving on it's own and shifting really really late and dieing in the parking lot just starting to drive. Then some times it wouldn't even go into gear at all. I would put it in D and nothing would happen.
I put the factory tune back on and it went back to normal.
So, I reinstalled the 91 CAI tune again and so far so good again. Seems like it's not quite as responsive as the first tune though. Kinda sluggish.
Why would a tune "go bad" after a week? I thought that once flashed that it was a done deal.

The adaptives are learning. If you drive it soft, the adaptive learn thats the way you drive and will adapt to that. If you drive hard, it will learn that.

You may want to change the area on your home page that lists the new messages. I don't think you want to be advertizing "penis patches" or "male enhancement" messages to someone who is new to this site. I wish the "Kiddies" would find another sandbox to play in.

OK, good. Glad something from me wasn't promoting something like that!
