If you are planning to up grade later down the road to ls1edit go with HPPIII, but if not the Predator is the best for the money. I have had both, sold the HPPIII and now use the Predator. Could feel the differance and it has alot more options.

Why couldn't you upgrade to Edit later on? I thought you could reset the pcm back to stock if you wanted to use edit or another tuner... or do you mean something else?

I like the predator b/c of the free custom tuning I get from James, the diagnostic + live data functions, it is much less expensive than a custom pcm or edit+laptop+cables etc, and I can tell a huge difference in the way the truck runs. I will have track #'s within the next few weeks (would have had them already but got rained out saturday for the 2nd time)

They are talking about the price. If you are going to go to edit later on just get the hpp 3 until then, its what like 150 or 200 bucks cheaper? (correct me if im wrong) I do have a question for you preadator guys, whats the max you can set the rev limiter to?

You can! The pedator is lock to you VIN. You can't really sell it.

Around $415

6000 with stock programming. You can get a custom tune to change that.

I have heard that Diablo is developing an upgrade which would allow you to unlock your VIN + a new feature which allows you to log your live data - not sure if it was just a sales pitch or not - guess we'll find out.
