Yes, it will --- you can chirp through second if you want. And no, Diablo did not supply dyno sheets but I know from dyno results on the 7.3L that Diablo was within 2HP of the advertised numbers so its likely to be just as close with the 6.0. They don't fudge quite like the #1 selling brand!

Several people are reporting that the Diablo Predator is leaving codes behind, most notably the P603 code and it will not erase them! If your dealer choses to be a jerk, your warranty can be voided. Here are two examples:

I'd love to have one of these, but I don't see how anyone whose truck is still under warranty could buy one of these until this is resolved. What do you guys think?

According to Diablo (just got off the phone), codes that are related to the truck that would be there without the Predator are going to come back after clearing. Codes related to programming such as the P0603 will clear after about 25-50 miles of driving after telling the Predator to clear them. According to Tony at Diablo these are "hard codes" that take the driving cycle after clearing them for them to go away. They are in the process of making a free update to the Predator that will force clear hard codes.
If your dealer "voids" the warranty because of a code he's breaking the law.

Okay, good news. Diablo has now resolved the issue. I've been discussing it with them today, and they worked hard to get it done. Contact us if you want your tuner updated.
Not all dealers can provide the update service. If you purchased it through us we'll handle it for free. If you got it somewhere else there is a fee to cover shipping/handling but otherwise its free.

Actually they do need service and updates !!!
And Ken's the guy to tke care of you !
Ken,
how do you want me to get mine back to you to get mine updated ?
I would guess I was in the first group you sold on te first day...
so it will be tough going back to stock but I'll just have to bite the bullet for a bit to get it corrected !
Will be like going back to the old XT form my 2.5 Ghz processor !
