Found a great deal on predator for my 04 4.6 2wd/newbody style XLT..

Thinking about going this route and would like to hear fom those running "ONLY THE CANNED" Diablo 87/89/93 Performance tunes...

Please list your driveing impressions/gains/likes/dislikes....or issues......

 

Well...did not get any responses...went ahead and bought it...hope it is all they claim it is....will let you know.....

 

Just got my Diablo Sport predator and installed the 93 Performance Tune, did not touch any of the adjustable parameters (Yet) and it works as advertised !! Iam sure it gained all of the 20+HP that they claimed...

The power gains are really amazing on the 4.6, especially downshifting at freeway on ramps and passing power is great. Throttle response is many times better than stock.. Supercruises @ 100mph with just a light touch on the throttle now....Feels like a new truck..

Diablo Sport Predator Very pleased, excellent product and 100% made in the USA......

fyi....only mods are K&N replacement filter and Bassani single muffler....Oh yea and the Preadator...It rocks ....!!!!!!!

 

Well just my 2cents. I bought the Diablo for my 08 F150 4.6L and like it. I just did the 87 octane tune. It seemed to wake up my tranny. No MPG increase though. My truck feels better. I like it!

 

Try the 93 performance tune..I run Shell 91 fuel and no problems...I think it might even take a little more spark advance later...

I have not calculated fuel milage yet because I have been running it hard many times on the interstate, flooring it from 50-95+, evaluateing the tuner..

But I can tell you this, I have drove it 185 miles like this and the gas gauge is still is above half !!.... So iam sure there is milage gains to be had with normal driveing...

 

cool beans ill have to try it sometime. I hear a two mile to galon increase. At $4 a gallon it might not be worth it but at $1.60 it should be!

 

I have gotten all of a 2+ mpg gain...Power gains are excellent/downshifts are perfect with very little throttle needed to get it to down shift and get the motor back on the pipe....

Hell it wll even downshifts on the interstate @ 75-80 + and gets right back in the sweet spot and revs out hard and fast....stock=forgot about it...it was a dud compared to the DIABLO SPORT PREDATOR 93 performance tune.....

The amazeing thing is I have been beating the hell out of it on the interstate, evaluateing the 93 PERFORMANCE tune and it has been getting WAY better milage than the chitty stock tune calibration driveing it easy, trying to get good milage....
