Theres no skip shift on the automatics, only the manuals. Running a tune for 89 octane, if it existed, would give you less power then stock. It requires at least 91 octane stock, so running lower they'd have to pull timing.

shouldn't be running 89 octane in that car.. should be a minimum of 91 octane gas.. for which there IS a tune on the tool for...

and even better would be 93 octane, for which is the Diablo Tune...

So there is no way to adjust shift points for a automatic transmission? If your not in the throttle hard the car is in 4th gear by the time your up to 25-30 mph?

Not with the Predator. The Predator is an old unit and doesn't have space for TCM support. Those options are available on the Trinity now, and will be offered on the inTune eventually.

yeah, predators do not have tcm/tranny support... you'd need a Trinity...
