you'd want to get the Trinity...
http://diablosport.com/index.php?module ... ay&pid=151
it has mulitple tunes on there for you to choose from, like a 91 octane tune with No DOD... and a Diablo Tune (which is for 93 octane) with No DoD...

the 7191 model predator will too.. BUT, the predators will not be getting any new updates - they are memory/storage space limited, are at the end of their lifespan, has gone as far as it's going to go, and it will be phased out... and you need to buy extra usb/serial cable and power adapter for it so that you can connect it to your PC in order to download recorded/saved data logs and import/export tune files...
The Trinity comes with everything you need, has more features, better data logging, is easier to use, and WILL be getting new updates, such as an update to be able to tune more than one vehicle at a time...

I just don't know if i would utilize the trinity to all of its capabilities. Also whats the ease of use like from the predator to the trinity as i have never used or installed one of these. I just don't want to buy something that is overkill for my needs. Yes i am a spirited driver but will there be that much of a difference from the predator to the trinity in performance? i have heard that my car doesn't have many updates for it on the trinity?? Will you be coming out with updates for the 06 monte?

also if i get a programmer will i have to run 91 octane or can i run 87? Is there a pre set tune on the trinity or predator that takes dod off and let you run higher performance with 87 octane?

also would you have a good tune i would be able to buy without having to send your a driving readout? I noticed you have the same car as me.

no 87 octane tunes available.. .shouldn't really run 87 in our cars man, they don't like it... tend to get a lot of knock retard, and power is reduced...
you want to use at least 91 octane gas...
and yes, I have a custom tune I can do for your car... cost is $125....
