Sorry guys, I did not mean to start a war 
. I just loaded the
Predator a couple hours ago. I loaded the Tow mode
!. The beast
came to life just in this setting. The a/c works great, no flashing in the
t/h mode, the shifting of the tranny is firmer, it does "gear down" firmer
in the t/h mode. I have only driven it twice on a cold start up. I am
towing my TT tomorrow. I will take it easy until the tranny learns the
new settings. At this point I am
, , and HEEEHA!
My truck has always ran good even though the PI is not there.
I will post again after my short camping trip. !!!!!!!!!!!!

e,
Welcome to the Predator Grinnin, Dodge eatin, Chevy smokin, Club
you might want to get about 5 start cycles and drives under your belt before you hook up... will probably be fine, but it's is an adaptive system !!!

Yep !
There IS one real problem with the Predator use that I best warn you about now..
you'll hate to go back to stock for ANYTHING - even basic maintanance at the dealer
with the new r34f release, yesterday I decided to load the 100hp mode (I typically run the 65hp 99.99% of the time)
and now it's raining so I NEED to go back to the 65hp mode... the 100 is too strong... and the fuel mileage is crashing down !!! I am NEVER a fuel mileage gestapo, but typically around town my overhead hovers areound 16 to 17... the last day or so it's hovered around 11
it's fun to REALLY smoke those silly boys with their windows down and radios thumping... but don't know if I can afford it very much longer

Yep all about perceptions....
my perception is that at light throttle the predator shifts fine....
when I first crank up in the morning and go too quickly it will chirp the tires with the right throttle play, but that only happens if I WANT it to happen....
