here is exactly what happened.

I loaded the custom file Johan emailed me. When doing this there was an error message stating file error, bad file integrity (or something like that). Then I attempted to load my original tune into the PCM, using the restore factory tune option. This failed and then I attempted to restore the factory tune again, and again BUT nothing worked! This all happened at 9 PM in the LACR Palmdale California dragstrip parking lot!

Like I said before the Predator is not all that bad! i loved it when I had it BEFORE I had the custom tune. I think the real risk is when installing a custom tune.

superchips is probably the worst, from experience. Mine worked several installs and un-installs, then crashed. It didn't fry my pcm, but caused a big pain in the ***.
LS1Edit has worked great for me.
I was going to originally order a Predator, but got blown off when inquiring about a custom tune for my blower. Worked out good Sam
