No power like seat of the pants or no power as shown on the dyno or more importantly no difference in track times? G-tech or the like?

Not saying this is the case with you but butt dynos are very innacurate. Some guys claim their car is now a beast with an intake and I have problems telling much difference with a small shot of spray lol.

Do you have an A6 or M6? It used to be most programmers, with canned tunes, wouldn't do much at all for M6s, but there's a lot of tuning potential for the auto's. I don't know how much access there is for the A6 nowadays, but it was nice for the slushbox in my '02.

I recently installed the Predator. And my butt dyno was very satified. Why the 93 octane is that what area has? also making sre you have the right trans picked. Did it ask you to download your back up to it. I would reload it and try again. Dd you follow the instruction. Stay in the car turn the key on when it called for it. Keep all electrical accessories off or disconnected? There are a lot of little things if not done correctly that will mess you up.

Have we logged for KR?

Made sure you have good fuel?

Maybe try the 91 tune to see if it feels better?

when was your car built, is an even more important question.

Probably not a factor... Around last October GM changed the OS. Diablo followed suit with an update. I don't think you can even load the tune to the wrong OS...(I could be wrong, haven't tried it.) I have the old Diablo and a new car now so I'll be updating my Trinity soon.

Be sure you drive the car for a while before you judge the performance. Takes a bit to learn the new settings. Also your MPG should improve.

To my understanding, ECM codes change. Hence, why some companies look for newer built cars to crack the codes (ex. Vortech).
But I'm sure Diablosport is on top of that.

I have to agree with the op. I uploaded the diablosport canned tune in my m6 car and it was slightly slower. I tested the car stock w/ the trinity 0-60mph feature, then installed the tune, and tested it again. I went back and forth doing this for several iterations, and the diablosport tune was consistantly slower. I used the exact same launch method every time.
