Great...
how do I get updated?
Called your shop and they said they would call me back with details...

 

We've now put update instructions here:

Thanks Ken !

Are they indicating this will update anything with tranny shifting or just clears all codes?

 

Its just the codes issue. The transmission requires programming of a secondary computer and they are working on that.

 

ONE more question and then I'll stop....
have they given a time frame on the shift improvements ?
just wondering if it is worthwhile to wait or get the codes thing done now...

 

Nope.

 

Thanks !
Sending it in now....
oh, one more question....

j/k

 

jdadamsjr:

I can't email you yet cause I'm too new(not enough posts)???But I'm running between 400-600 on my Pyro.....65 hp...(predator)......

 

MAX !?!?!?!

That's stunning !
at what sustained speed ?

I set my truck back to stock & shipped predator to Ken to update.

I missed it before I shipped it !!!
Had to set it back,
pack it up,
drive to the UPS Store and
right away remembered why I got it in the first place...
almost got rear ended when I pulled out knowing I had a lot of room and even though the 6-oh stock goes well...
it don't go like it does with the +65 or +100 HP !

PLEASE HURRY BACK

 

Mine (65 hp)is running the same with the probe >2"from the turbo flange on the down pipe. 45 deg air temp, stock exhaust with muffler.

This is just driving around town, max speed 50 MPH. Tomorrow i go to Austin. If the road is dry, I'll see if speed affects it.

 

I'm running between 50-70 mph at close to 600 degrees...

 

Bob,
Supposed to clear up tonight...
but be careful out there with all the OTHER crazies
Did u get your Predator updated ???

And I think I recall Ken saying something earlier about Diablo telling him ten degrees per sustained mph ????
so @ 75 mph = 750 degrees ???

Make a note and let us know...
