Default Diablo Trinity/ Predator Mike Wilson Custom Tune DEAL!

I have had a Mike Wilson custom tune now for a few months and just had him update my tune based on my logs. I sent Mike Wilson a link of a previous thread of some guys wanting more info on his tunes and was able to get him to work a deal for you guys.

Normally a tune costs $75 and then he will update that tune for $50 based on your logs. In other words you would pay $125 for your custom tune specifically for your vehicle based on the logs you send him.
For a limited time you can either just get the initial tune for $65 instead of $75 or get the initial tune and an update based on your logs for $100 instead of $125.
Just cut and paste this email to your email to him and let him know you heard about this deal on dodgeforum.com


Below is the info you will need so Mike Wilson can write your tune.

Year
Make
Model
Engine
Transmission Type
Rear gear ratio
Rear tire size
Induction type-Naturally Aspirated or Forced Induction or Nitrous (horsepower level)
Air induction type
Throttle Body type and size
Intake manifold
Cylinder heads, and ported or not ported
Camshaft/camshafts duration and lift, part number if possible
Mass Air meter
Fuel injectors
Fuel pump
Exhaust manifolds/short tube headers/mid-length headers or full length headers
Off-Road or with cats
Cat-back

Does he sell the Predator or do you already have to own one? I'm looking into getting one but it would be easier just to order it from him with the tune already loaded.

I do not believe he sells the Trinity or the Predator. Adding a tune to your device via email is very easy.

Correction: He does sell the full line of Diablo

I am a little confused on how a custom tune works via your logs. What is the advantage of doing a dyno tune compared to Mike Wilsons tune?

SO I was wrong, Mike Wilson does offer a complete line of Diablo products.

As far as Dyno Tune compared to a Mike Wilson tune I am not an expert. I know I checked into a few dynos around here and it was around 350-450 dollars by the time you paid for dyno time, a few runs, and a tuner tech.

Personally I think this question is better answered by someone with more experience than me. All I know is I spent the $125 and have a tune that is specific to my truck based on the data gathered from my truck. This same thing would have cost me at least 3 times as much on a dyno.

well. to be honest in any form of combustion engine tuning. a dyno IS the BEST answer. period. no one with any brains will argue that.

BUT, for what most people are looking to do with a diablo tuner, this mike tune is the next best thing for a lot less $$$$....

Hello everybody. My name is Mike Wilson. As daprincipal mentioned, the pricing listed is until the end of the year.

Let me answer the questions that have been posted.

crod: You are ABSOLUTELY correct. A dyno tune is the best answer especially for highly modified vehicles.

gaorenst: I will send you a custom tune based on what you have on your vehicle. Once you have the tune, you can choose to datalog and send to me to have it tweaked even further.

ran jr: I do sell all the Diablosport products as well as a large line of others for exhaust and intakes. There is no pricing benefit for buying the units from me. I do abide by all my vendors minimum advertised prices.

Any questions please feel free to email me as I cannot monitor all the forums. Thanks everybody.

He sent me back the original tune but I would just save it on a file on your CPU regardless. Even before I had my custom tune I did this. Imagine losing, breaking or having your diablo stolen. If you have your stock tune saved on your PC it could save your #$% with the warranty.
