Are you kidding me Diablo.....

Has anyone heard about this yet? I noticed an add in Mopar Muscle's may issue about a new tuner that looks like an Iphone. Looks like it will be replacing the Trinity. They haven't even finished tweaking all the issues with the Trinity yet and here comes another new tuner? Man am I irritated. I just forked over 600 for the trinity. I do admit, this thing looks sweet and Diablo claims it will be out this year! This reminds me of the way Macintosh released there Iphone. Everyone forks over 300 for the Iphone and then less than a year they release the 3G version for 99 bucks! Diablo better offer a upgrade deal for Trinity owners. I have a feeling that my trinity will be for sale soon! I have to have the latest and greatest so I will be suckered into this one. Looks like it is releasing this year 2010!

Here is what I could find out- Diablo "Intune"

We’ve seen some of the prototypes of the new DiabloSport inTune before. This product was designed as the replacement to the Predator tuner and is now ready to be released. This next generation tuner features a full touch screen and easy to use menus to make tuning your vehicle easy. Best of all this tuner will work with any DiabloSport supported vehicle, so no more throwing away your old tuner when you change cars. You also get data logging and the ability for custom tuning if you out-grow the supplied tunes.

- Powered by dual 32 bit CPUs and contains over 1GB of internal memory
- One part number for all applications
- OEM level scan tool
- Smaller than the average cell phone
- USB connectivity
- High-Res color touch screen
- Free online updates and tech support for the life of the product
- 2 Analog inputs
- Supports custom tuning
- Data logging

no, it's NOT replacing the Trinity... the trinity is a step above the inTune...

the inTune will be replacing the Predators...

I hope your right. Sure looks nice though. Way sleeker design. Will it have all the same features as the predator and live data feature like the Trinity? If that's the case then it is a replacement in sorts. If it doesn't have the drag racing feature, who cares. It is sure small which is a good thing.

yes, I'm right...

yes, all the same features as the predator, and then some...

and yes, you'll be able to record live data with it (Data logging)...

ok, well I want one now I love your products, and am happy with the trinity. Just wish I waited for this. I assume this will be a tuner you leave plugged in like the trinity. Any idea on release date, and any trade in options for Trinity owners?

Testing hasn't even started on this yet. Its gonna be a while. I don't think you leave this attached like the Trinity. Its more like the Predator, tune and remove. Only leave it plugged in when datalogging.

Anybody who has an iPhone or iTouch knows that you never leave them in the car, because the display doesn't take well to temperature changes or extremes. Since this uses the same type of touch screen, the same thing will apply.

You will not want to trade your Trinity in on this, since as Lew stated, it is a Predator replacement, which means it will retail for under $400....!

well that’s good to know Sure like to looks of this tuner compared to the Trinity though. Way sleeker and low profile. Sounds like it's not really intended permanent installation in a car like the Trinity is.

The Trinity looks a million times better...personally, I dont want an Ipod attached to my ride as a tuner, I want something that looks like a tuner...Good job DiabloSport with keeping the Trinity at the top of the pack!

SO are you telling me that there are not going to be any features included with the inTune that are not available with the trinity?

I smell vapors!!

Looks good.

Since no one from Diablo answered my question I will as it straight out.

What function will the intune provide that the trinity wont? Straight up, your not going to put crazy R&D money on the trinity and the intune within this any quareters unless you think preddator owners (who are going to hold on to their outdated preds just so they can keep the egr delete feature) and trinity owners to purchase this new prodect.
So what's behind door number 3 Mike?

inTune is a whole new ballgame.

inTune brings full factory reflash capabilities to the table, a feature never before seen in any handheld tuning device.

inTune is not limited to supporting Ford/GM/Chrysler. inTune will take us into BMW, Mini Cooper, Mercedes, and many more.

inTune will be desired by not only end users, but high end shops that work on cars and require reflash capabilities, as inTune can ideally replace a Star Scan, a Tech 2, a Cardaq, or whatever you are using for flashing PCM.

It also has full factory scan tool capabilities, so it will be able to perform factory diagnostic functions like crank relearns.

My favorite part so far will be the lack of any required interface software. Plug the inTune into your PC (or Mac!!), and open the external hard drive (inTune).
Want your backup file? drag it out of the folder and drop it on your PC. Done.
Got a custom tune you want to load to the inTune, drag it from your PC to the intune. Done.
Want to update the inTune, drag it to the inTune...you get the point.

We'll have to develop a type of driver for live streaming to the Dataviewer program, but oh yeah, that driver will be in the intunes drive already, so you just drag it from there, install it on your PC, and done. Dont even have to visit the web site.
The inTune manual will also be on the tools' drive, as well as any documentation you may need, along with a link to the inTunes downloads page on our website.


Theres more, but thats all for now

So, when does BETA start so I can get rid of the Trinity?
