I just bought a granatelli/diablosport predator from coolblueperformance.(have not received it yet) i got a great deal $350 shipped. i just noticed that the options listed on cool blue for the unit are not quite the same as the ones sold on other sites. it does not say ANYTHING on the site about it being different or lower in quality. does anybody know anything about this. did i just get f***ed?

I know some have differences but as to what extent I do not know. I do know the one for my Son's GT has a "Factory Tune" along with the "Performance Tune" and the one for Mach1 does not.

I just looked at the Cool Blue add and I am pretty sure you got the same Predator as sold everywhere else. Just make sure you have the most current software revision, should be "r50d".

The manual is not clear but I think the "Factory HP Tune" option is just a copy of the stock tune that you can modify if you do not want to use the Predator Performance Tune. Not sure why your Mach tuner would not have this, I believe it is the same tuner for both the Mach & GT. Are you and your son running the same software version?

Yes, both of us are using the r50d version. I guess it's what is put in the tune for each type car, GT vs Mach1, because if I remove both tunes from his and mine and then swap the hand held tuners to each vehicle, his will still have the "Factory HP Tune" option and mine won't.
