Predator

Those of you who run the predator tuner. Have you had good luck with it and how high do your egt's get. I have heard this is one of the problems with the predator.

I havent played with mine much yet. The 60 hp setting is nice and gives about a 2 mpg increase. I have only used the 60 and 85 hp settings and since i have the sonnax valve and tricumulator springs, the firm and hard shift settings are too hard, so i just use stock. The egt on the 60 runs about 1300 max and the 85 runs about 1250 max for some reason. The 85 uses more timing and i think it burns fuel better. My truck is an early 99 with wastegate unplugged, tymar style intake, and full 4 inch exhuast. I gotta put a bolt back in my turbo before i use the 100.
