Moving a tune from one Predator to another.

Post by OcalaHemi »

I have 2 Predator's. I purchased one prior to adding a Vortech Supercharger to my car. With the Vortech they sent me another Predator. My original is the u7135 with revision V.9r18
The Vortech is a VR7135. Can the Vortech tune be transfered to my original tuner as a custome tune? I can do other adjustments with my original tuner but not with the Vortech, it is very limited. I am trying to bypass the 02 sensors as I keep getting a code. My cats failed after having the supercharger installed for about 9 months, and I had them removed temporarly. I need to find a cat that works with a boosted car. If I find a local CMR tuner in my area, can the 02 sensor be bypassed without messing up my Vortech tune in the car? If bypassed can the 02 sensor be reactivated?

load the vortech tune to the car, then export last tune written and post it here, then I will make a file from that which you can use for the other Predator.

I'm not sure how to attach the exported tune. I was able to export it to my computer but not sure how to send as an attachment to send to you.

I think I was able to send the exported tune located in my new post. Thank you for your help!

Okay I'm back to my original post! I'm not sure I'm understanding you correctly. I am going to try again to attach my backup (stock tune) from the Predator that came with my Vortech supercharger. I will also attach the exported file (last file written) from the same Predator. Both of these files I just pulled from the Predator today. Before installing the supercharger I set my car back to stock from my original Predator tuner. I then took the Vortech Predator and backed up my stock tune before installing the Vortech tune. Will the original Predator still have my stock tune under backup, being it's never been used on any other car? And is that the backup you need?

I just tried to pull the backup from my original Predator u7135 and it shows no backup or last file written. I guess that is because I set the car back to stock to unlock tuner from my car, when I recieved the Predator from Vortech (VR7135).

Okay, I hope I have done this correctly. I am going to re-attach my files. I noticed when I down loaded the files above, that I did not set the DS downloader to VR7135 when I downloaded my files from my Vortech Pedator I don't know if that will effect the outcome of the download from above. I have carefully went back and am sure I have done this correctly this time. The files starting with VR are the Vortech Predator, the files starting with org is from my original tuner. Again I am sorry for all the mistakes, and trouble I'm causing but this is new to me.

Thank you! Thanks for being patient with me! Will this allow me to bypass the 02 sensors now? As I mentioned I'm not sure the V9r18 gave us the option to delete the O2 sensors. Did you build it into the tune?
