im not askin u to do anything ur not allowed by superchips to do, tho
just thought if u had it on a dyno and there "happened" to be a predator that "accidentally" uploaded to the truck, it may show the scmt is better

I bet they ALL do those comparisons....
but they are just never published :-)
Haven't u heard of one car manufacturer buying a competitor to take it apart :-)
(yeah, sometimes it's the company too, but I was refering to the cars this time :-)

i just want to see the figs. everyone that makes a product should be forced to test under a level field and just show the #'s. if they are making an inferior product, then so be it. make a better one. instead we get this "fleecing" crap.
this is not intended toward vic or anyone in particular.

Well got 2 more days to go before I am back in the US of A , the best place in the world. I have been reading threw some threads and i get excited about being reunited with my Baby (yes my truck not the wife)
I read all these thread about Preator , SCMT , Banks , Bully dog , and other . But the only thing that need to be seen is that we are very lucky to have all this great toys to play with and compare to the Jones to see who’s is bigger better and faster . . . Where I work overseas all we have are Diesels no gasser to be seen around any where, let me tell you these thing run like a log going up hill
Well get to the point, at work the Clients are always asking for charts on our data we provide kind of like a DYNO CHART.... wink wink . .. ... I am willing to buy a Predator to check the seat of pants feel ... . if it is better just try to get ride of the SCMT .... I am in the process of sending off for an upgrade and have to pay to ship it to them ..... 8 bucks ..... hey a kid in Africa can eat for a week on 8 bucks..... Well it would disappointing to know that we can not upgrade without paying or buying a new module to have the ability to change the tire size and sort ...
Well Vic has shown us customer support even though it is on his free time .... but on the other hand maybe the predator doesn’t need any customer asst. department ....
Well this is all in good opinion and being away from my baby ,, I know once i get in here she will make me smile , ,and the SCMT will make me change my mind from all this gossip and hearsay ... who need numbers when you got the seat of you pants meter ... a very calibrated tool..... enough talk from me <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com
fficeffice" /><o
></o>
<o></o>
Thank to all who reads and express their opinion against my own...you can do this we live in the USA .... remember to thank a soldier and a VET when you see them ...<o></o>

less than two second 60 foot on street tires is GODD, and if in a 8K lb truck it's GREAT!
I can only salivate over what +150HP would do ?!?!
let's see, that's 33% MORE than the Diablo ?
220 ftlb of torque is not a LOT more than Diablo's claim of around 200 though...
I would think @ 150 you'd be higher ?
but no matter, come on Diablo, step up to the plate and raise the bar again :-)
