"93 octane tunes will add roughly 20-25 rwhp and 25-30 ft/lbs of torque at the tires.
There are BIG gains through the low to mid rpm range for sure."

The thing that scares me about the Diablo and SCT is that isnt it possible to go too far and grenade your engine? If you can control every little detail you can really get things screwed up customizing something you know nothing about. I would certainly like to be able to pick a bunch of different tunes but for now i just installed the 3 available on my S/C. I noticed no mpg or power difference with it though.

The good thing about being able to data log is you can drive around and log....then send that info to your tuner and they can send you a more accurate canned or custom tune for your mods.

Interesting... I don't necessarily want to disable my MDS, but I wonder if Diablo figured out a way to get rid of the "MDS Bump" (as I call it) that plagues the SC tuner and the Edge tuner. Any of you guys with a tuned MDS engine know what I'm talking about, that constant "Thunk" in and out of MDS when you're cruising around 50-65... I've had both the Edge and SC, they both do it, so if Diablo's programmer has a smooth MDS shift, they can mark me down as a customer...

I had this issue when I put the 87 Economy tune on my 07 - hemi
I got so sick and tired of it, that I put the stock program back on it, since then the SC has been collecting dust in a drawer.

Copied response to the MDS question I posted in Diablo's support forums....

We plan to spend some time with the MDS mapping to see if we cant make it work better than the OEM programming.
