    Anything I should worry about buying a Predator used?

    A computer interface cable and a 12V power supply are useful to have with it for things like datalogging and custom tunes, but these items are not included with a new Predator. Both are readily available from diablo or from Radio Shack. The OBD II interface cable however is physically...

    Plug it in to your or his OBD II port and navigate to "Show Last Tune Written". If it's been unmarried it will show "Original Backup".

    Should I Do It? (Insurance Related)

    Yes, it's a risk not having full coverage, but if I total my car and it's my fault I can deal with it. I'll probably be more concerned with being alive anyway. I kept the comprehensive part to cover things like hail damage and such, and the all-important uninsured immigrant insurance.

    Should I Do It? (Insurance Related)

    I dropped collision on mine but kept everything else. It was the biggie as far as cost.

    AODE toast

    Older transmissions used a modulator valve that was activated by manifold vacuum to initiate shifts, but I don't think those are used on the AODE transmission

    Am I crazy???

    That's too much for a 2003 Mach 1 with that many miles....I would say 17-18K would be more reasonable. That being said, I traded in my former 2001 GT for a brand new 2003 Mach 1 back in June of 2003. I have never regretted having done so one bit. Difference was I had 2K equity in the GT; had...

    4:10's on the highway??

    I have been using 4.10's in my DD '03 Mach 1 for the past three years, and wouldn't have any less. RPM on the freeway don't hit 3000 until 90 mph in fifth gear. We also use 4.10's in my wife's DD '04 V6 automatic, and it doesn't hit 3,000 rpm until around 78 mph while highway cruising. Gas...

    04 New Radiator

    The 3.8L engine had a problem with blown head gaskets in the past, but I don't know if that issue continued all the way up to '04. That's why the color of the engine oil subject was brought up I presume.

    04 New Radiator

    Also, did you buy your car new, or used? The OEM factory gold coolant should last far beyond 30000 miles and should not cause any problems with radiator clogging, but if your car is was bought used the previous owner could have changed the coolant without flushing thoroughly and used something...

    Tuning

    That makes it easy....the Diablo Predator flash tuner does not work on 2004 V6 applications. Don't know why they didn't offer a tuner for V6's that year, but that's one they didn't. +2 on Justin/VMP Tuning and the XCal 2. We are using a XCal 2 from him for my wife's 2004 V6 after having...
