Question Will I be Safe?

Hey Guys,

Newbie question I know forgive me. I have been doing a lot of reading on here about the different tuners and mods that have been done.
Here's what I wanna do. CAI, Cat back exhaust (probably Bassani), and upper pulley. I am thinking of a Diablo Predator as far as a tuner. My question is this. Will the tune provided with the Diablo be a safe one? I know tha dyno's are the way to go to get the perfect set up but is there a risk of me doing damage using the Diablo? I am not out for the most power just a really reliable tune day in and day out.

Do not do an upper pulley. It can cause belt slip and will not provide much boost. Install a lower pulley instead.

Do not use a stock tune on the Diablo. To be safe, you must get a dyno tune - from someone who understands that safety is your prime concern.

I'm still on the Predator tune, but I am going to get it dyno tuned after taxes come back. From what I have heard, the Predator Generic tunes are a bit agressive, and with anything more then a 4lber your takeing a risk in the colder days. I don't got WOT unless it's 50+ deg out. Just incase.

Give one or all of the big three tuners a call, JDM PSP or JLP will probably all be great choices
