I just opened the front door to see that FedX delivered my Livewire "Package" deal that I ordered from Mike at 5 Star Tuning... man this unit looks good! I selected three custom tunes: 87 Octane - Economy, 91 Octane - Tow, and 93 Octane - Performance.

Correct, premium fuel is NOT required for the DiabloSport Predator. The three different octane tunes are handy if you don't always have access to premium fuel. I use the 91 octane tune with premium fuel because I prefer the power increase, but it is not necessary. We can't get 93 octane in my area so that tune is not an option for me.
I actually change mine back to the 87 octane setting when I travel in areas where they don't sell premium fuel (when I'm hunting).
It's the same tuner I have in my 2005 that you would use for the 2008.

I'll try and find where I bought it online - the price was very good compared to some others with less options. This tuner is also custom programmable to your truck if you take it into a CMR dealer that has the proper equipment.
Edit: found it - here's the website I purchased from, but I was looking for a place that shipped to Canada cheaper, might be better deals at others out there. http://www.concoursdirect.com/diablo...uck-u7155.html
