TUNE INFORMATION

DiabloSport Performance - For stock to mildly modified applica-
tions - NOT FOR USE WITH SMALLER UPPER AND/OR LARGER

AFTERMARKET PARTS

Use of the DiabloSport Predator with aftermarket products is 
at the owners risk; some aftermarket products create rich or 
lean conditions based on design by the products manufacturer. 
It is impossible to test every possible product so please proceed 
with caution when using any product related to adding airflow 
like throttle bodies, filters and cold air intake kits or boost in 
the form of pulleys, or blower upgrades, changes in exhaust 
systems or exhaust components, even rear end gear changes 
(which make rate of acceleration changes can affect air fuel 
ratio). Customers with these modifications may need a custom 
tune from Diablosport or one of its CMR dealers. DiabloSport 
recommends the use of a dyno and air fuel meter to monitor 
data when adding aftermarket products to make the proper 
tune changes with Predator. 
*Premium grade unleaded fuel must be used for all PREDA-
TOR applications;  AMOCO, MOBIL, SUNOCO fuels are recom-
mended.
