Diablo Predator

I just bought a Diablo Predator for my 04 excursion. My question is can I also use the same Diablo for my 04 excursion and my 03 F250 or do I need to buy another one. Thanks

You have to buy a second one only if you want to update the HP on both. Once updated, the Predator is married to the PCM in the vehicle.

Start reading on page 10 of the Main anouncement for the Predator thread. There 's a link from the webmaster for the update at the bottom of the page.

I'd added complete instructions, the software needed to update the programmer, and the latest Predator revision file.

Ken's explanation is right on !!!
I wouldn't bother with the power supply if u have a laptop...
just download the program to your laptop... get a db-9 male to femaile cable and it is pretty straight forward if you don't have an ECU that won't cooperate

It's WELL worth the effort....
Th tranny even in the +100Hp mode shifts as if I had put a shift kit in it... really sharp, crisp shifts !

And he said they put more low end power in it....

Quite a winner !

You can take out the predator from your 04 excursion and put it int your o3 f250 as long as the stock tune was put in. TO make it easier just buy another one...there only 399.
