"After owning several 5.0 Mustangs,I was sorely disappointed in the 4.6,namely low end torque. The Predator was a miracle worker on my '03 Mustang GT. It drives like a different car. Where it used to just barely chirp the tires going into second gear, it now breaks loose, even with traction control ON. Cruising in fourth gear around 55-60 MPH it will now accelerate nicely without dropping back into third. I feel the Predator offers plenty of bang for the buck. There is nothing else I could have spent that amount of money on and achieved those results. Installation was easier than I could have imagined. Car is bone stock, with only Flowmasters and AEM Cold air kit. I recommend this product to anyone looking for horsepower and torque at a bargain price."

"I have done some extensive testing and tuning with the programmer and logged about 1000 miles with it. Overall it provided about .5 to 1MPG increase which took me from a consistent 12 to 12.5mpg on the 87octane tune to a consistent 12.5 to 13.5 on the 93octane (with no ethanol) highway mileage with the truck empty. I have not done any towing as of yet. As far as power increase goes, there was a noticeable difference. The tuning capabilities are fairly easy to access, but are not for the inexperienced user. The programmers size is a bit clunky and the buttons are sometimes hard to push. Overall I am happy with the purchase and with the ability to get a max power tune with the added modifications I have done. The truck also has long tube headers, high flow Y pipe, cat back, cold air intake and throttle body spacer."

"The diablosport predator is a get programmer. Gives you the options of changing a fair share of parameters to get the best amount of power out of it with the option of connecting to a computer and sending a copy of your factory tune to a tuner. I would recommend this programmer if you want to change the parameters if your not happy with just the basic factory, 87, or 93 tune."

Great product - USB tough to deal with

"I have a 2006 300 SRT8. The Predator worked as advertised -it allowed me to essentially turn off Chrysler's electronic babysitter that prevented the engine from producing full power until my car was moving at least 30 mph. This change coupled with a K&N filter allows me to chirp the tires into second gear at almost 60 mph at WOT - sweet. The USB adaptor has some sort of clugey driver that absolutely would not work on my laptop running XP. Hopefully the people reading this have a serial port on their machine. Go for the serial connection and skip the USB. Too much of a hassle. I strongly recommend that you buy the power supply that is separate from the Predator. You will probably need to update the firmware before you can tune your motor."

"While the DiabloSport didn't turn my C6 Corvette into a 500 HP monster (it has 400 HP stock), it did improve my overall experience. The car was prone to spark knock under light acceleration, and that's now gone. Mileage is up a little, too. Any HP increase is too small to notice. Shifts are a litte quicker, too. The USB cable did ship without a driver disk, and Windows XP didn't recognize the cable. I ended up using my own serial cable."
