New tires should be the same total height as the old ones so that this isnt an issue.

I know that becuse i bought the 8 I shouldn't worry about my gas milage, but does anyone know if theres a difference in a different octane tune from 87 to 91 or 93?

I have a hyper-technological power programmer on my stick and I love it! I do not useair hyper-technological power that came with the programmer just because what hedoes is to prepare a report / f and timing advance change .. I have a dry kit works best with the timing of stock! However, I still have my speedometer and rev myrecaibrate increase in 6500!

I HAVE USED HYPERTECH PROGRAMMERS AND HAD NO PROBLEMS.. IF YOU ARE DISCONNECTED WHILE OROGRAMMING WITH THEIRS JUST RECONNECT AND START OVER. THEY ALSO HAVE MORE TUNES THAN ANYONE FOR FIPK &..CAI KITS.

Default everything you need is in the box with the Hypertech MAX ENERGY PROGRAMMER.

[QUOTE=White2004;10097]I just bought the Diablo Predator. Will I need to buy additional hardware/cables to get the emailed tunes? Also since I'll be running 93 octane how much can I advance the timing? What other parameters such as fuel should I change? Does anyone have any real numbers on this thing. My car is a 04 GT with 5spd. No other present mods all stock. I saw something called a Diablo Sport Predator Pc interface and power source on ebay. Will I need this?[/QUOTE. ITS ALSO INTERNET UP DATE ABLE.

I also live in Pa. so I assume we are talking about the same Pa. emissions. Thank you for your time and effort. :thumbsup:
THATS WITH REGULAR OR PREMINUM FUEL TUNE.

Default jmo....Hypertech offers the most feature in one package you can get.

Code rwader...speedo recal.. regular fuel and preminum fuel tune...fipk/caí Tunes.. rev limiter and shift point changes.. Internet updateable...return to stock for resale..remove or raise speed limiter...raise rev limiter. Not all features are available for every app but they are for most.
