Explanation of Predator Programming Parameters |
High Speed Fan On when ac is on Medium Speed Fan On when ac is on Low Speed Fan On when ac is on Spark Adjustment Allows user to adjust timing +/-10 degrees in the 1000-3800 rpm range Allows user to adjust timing +/-10 degrees in the 4000-4800 rpm range Allows user to adjust timing +/-10 degrees in the 5000-7000 rpm range To properly dial in your timing using the Predator you need to log or monitor the following live data parameters. Spark, this is your actual timing (in degrees) at any given time. Knock Retard, this the amount of timing removed (in degrees) due to knock (detonation/ping). The knock sensors can in rare cases pick up other harsh engine noises as well, if this is the case it is recommended to fix the cause of the noise before proceeding. You basically always want the knock retard to read zero under wide open throttle conditions, it is normal for it to show some KR when stomping on the throttle and also during the shift. Monitor the spark and the knock retard pids under wide open throttle and see if you have any knock retard, anything higher than 1 should be adjusted in the respective timing range in the Predator , if the knock is severe, 5 deg plus, try lowering spark by 10%, if less than 5 deg, try 5%. Make another wide open pass and monitor the same pids and basically keep doing this until you seen no knock retard. NOTE: The use of respective grade fuel should be used with tune choice. 91 octane tune will run on 87,89 and 91 octane. The 93 octane (Performance) tune will run on 91 and 93 octane. If severe knock cannot be remedied by adjusting the parameters for it, try to install the factory tune and monitor the knock using it. If knock still is present consider switching fuel brand. DiabloSport recommends using fuels from the following vendors: Mobil, Sunoco and Amoco/BP. Knock Sensors Disabling the knock sensors can cause severe damage to your engine if used with poor quality or low octane fuels. Enable or disable the short term knock sensor. Enable or disable the long term knock sensor.

Vehicle Speed Limiter Allows user to adjust the vehicles speed limiter up to 190mph Tire size adjustment The Predator has two different ways to adjust for tire size. First Method Enter your original tire size then enter the new(actual) tire size. The Predator will prompt you to put in your original tire size in metric format (ex. 265/75-17), once entered the Predator will then display your entry and you confirm it by pressing enter. The Predator will then promt you to put in the new (actual) tire size in metric format (ex.305/50-22), once entered the Predator will then display your entry and you confirm it by pressing enter. You can now press esc to go back to the main modify parameter menu and if no more adjustments are desired press esc again and you will be asked to install modified tune, press yes and let Predator upload new adjusted tune to your vehicle. To reset the tire size, you can go to reset parameters and then reinstall the tune. Second Method Enter the tire size or the overall tire height The Predator will ask if you want to adjust it via entering the tire size or by the actual tire height. Tire size, enter the metric tire size displayed on the side wall of the tire (ex.265/75-17) then press enter to confirm. You can now press esc to go back to the main modify parameter menu and if no more adjustments are desired press esc again and you will be asked to install modified tune, press yes and let Predator upload new adjusted tune to your vehicle. Tire height, measure the tire height using a tape measure and enter that measurement in the Predator, then press enter to confirm. You can now press esc to go back to the main modify parameter menu and if no more adjustments are desired press esc again and you will be asked to install modified tune, press yes and let Predator upload new adjusted tune to your vehicle. To reset the tire size, you can go to reset parameters and then reinstall the tune. Quick Adjust parameters Quick adjust parameters do not require a reflash to take effect, they require a key cycle, these parameters are available in a separate "Quick Adjust" menu item as well as in the modify parameters menu. User will be asked to cycle key after each adjustment. Enable or disable the ESP (traction control), NOTE: When disabled the ABS, ESP BAS and (Brake) lights will be illuminated and ABS will not be operational Resets the learned TCM adaptation(instead of pulling a fuse). Raise shift points by a predefined setting, 5.7L's (1-2 5800rpm, 2-3 6000rpm, 3-4 6000rpm), 6.1L's (1-2 6400rpm, 2-3 6400rpm, 3-4 6400rpm).(N/A on Jeep) Reduces torque management between shifts for a firmer shift Enable/Disable automatic upshift when in manual autostick mode, ie. raise your rev limits and you can shift manually at any rpm without the vehicle automatically upshifting (as it would do stock). |

Battery breakthrough set to accelerate electric-car development
Thu, 12 Mar 2009A team of scientists working at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology are claiming a significant breakthrough in recharging times for lithium-ion batteries. According to findings published in the scientific journal Nature, MIT researchers Byoungwoo Kang and Gerbrand Ceder have unlocked the potential of lithium-ion batteries by patenting a unique process which is claimed to allow a typical laptop power pack to be fully recharged in less than a minute--an improvement in recharging performance of roughly 90 percent over existing lithium-ion batteries. Lithium-ion batteries generate electric current via the flow of lithium ions across an electrolyte, from an electrode to a cathode.
