Diablosport sets the price for the predator. I read something that said a vendor/retailer could not sell them for less than $369. I've seen some with free shipping and some with free interface kit. However, $369 is the lowest I've seen the tuner for. If anyone knows where there's a deal, please share.

I ordered mine through them for 375.00 free shipping.

I have too Benny...remember the 08 manifold that damaged my egr tube? Ya gotta take a chance sometimes....call them and see what they say.....

Apperently because they havent released it out to the public yet it will not have the download so you will have to download a crom (they emailed me it) which will allow it work on your vehicle. Vase said they will be releasing it very soon but no dates.

Have you gotten your hand held yet?! I wanna hear how this works for you!

I'm receiving it today! It will work completely fine as they are compatible for our year jeeps now. Diablo hasn't made an official release yet because they want to include the 09's so they are finishing up testing. Call them if you have any doubts and speak to a tech. I will post up my thoughts on it later on how it compares to my b&g flash. I think this will be alot better though. :). Cmr tunes, etc...

Joe I see you waste no time... lol

Because I have an in with a Jeep parts guy and can get it for about 1/2 the price of a woody. ;)

And I am wasting no time because the lag from the throttle by wire thing is driving me nuts. Only hope the Predator tunes are as good at removing that crap as the SCT and custom Brenspeed were for the 09 Mustang!

I've been dealing with this guy for about 10 years now and purchase anything I can from him for my Jeeps. Stuff like a case of oil filters (all my current Jeeps use the same one), ATF, gaskets, window regulators (anyone who owns an XJ or WJ knows about those), fan belts, water pumps and so on. Guy often jokes that I am putting his kid through college!

Sounds to me like you are. :D

Just got an email from Tbyrne Performance telling me they had to order the tuner and expect to see it any day now. Not really sure when I will be seeing it. :(

Good news is my Jeep guy says the cai will be on my steps come Monday!
:D

Recieved my handheld today but there is a problem with it recognizing the key cycle which they sent out a updated crom for it on there website but its not working. So they are having there engineers look into why this is still happening with the new update as this was a problem they thought was fixed with new update. Mike said its not a big deal and they should have this resolved tomorrow. Stay tuned as I get more info.

Funny after being told this was all set etc last week.... I feel like im a beta tester now. :lol: Im not blaming them though as I know they are working hard trying to resolve all the other issues they have going on. I will keep you guys updated.

Joe I wouldnt worry about it. Give it a little time. From what I understand he's cleaned up his act. If you do have any problems I can make a visit to see whats going on. He's located about 45 mins from where I live.

I went with them because they had a pkg deal of the predator, usb cable and 180deg tstat for about $375 and free shipping. Time will tell I guess but hopefully it all works out in the end. :D
 
#58 ·
From my understanding the key cycle issure is the last thing that has held up the release. So if that's taken care of in the next few days that would be great.

Tom.

Yeah hopefully tomorrow Tom.
