Good article !!!
Hadn't heard that Edge came out with a programmer !!!

But it seems it's only available for 7.3 L so far... correct ?

JohnBoy...looks like the "Juice" is what's available for the 6.0. Part programmer, part plug-in module:

As for the Evolution/Programmer -- yep, I'd like one of those in my X! Better than the Hypermax chip that sits in a pile in my center console.

Should also be able to stack the Edge with the 18k mod as far as I know

For some reason, I lean toward the programmer type though.... didn't want the modules/chips...

Must be the old coder in me

So I got the Diablo Predator back in Jan when it came out... and it has been all I hoped for
only problem is that I can't stand going back to stock now

\
But, I'm always looking for little bit more

JohnBoy,
Do you have a long term report on the Predator?
Most 6.0L users are saying the 6.0L is close to maxed stocked.! Chipping a 7.3 is a safer bet then chipping a 6.0L.

I don't know who you're talking to about the 6-oh...
but +100 hp at the rear wheels with just a tuner does not indicate it is maxed out !!!

I have a dyno chart around here somewhere but have forgotten where to go to add it to my gallery....

give me a hint and I'll post it...

As far as MY unbiased - just a user - not a seller review....
the Predator is the single BEST mod I have done to my X..... PERIOD !!!

99% of the time though, I run it in the 65hp mode (which they call the Economy mode, because in the 100 hhp mode I kept USING it... and that burned up too much fuel

The 65 gives me MOST of the benfits of the extra responsiveness and power AND a few mpg more... ( or the same mpg if I drive it like it was stolen and the police were right behind me )

Click on the "MY GARAGE" link at the top...then locate your Excursion listed on the left-hand side of the links for your account. You can add photos to your album from there.

There's always the FAQ, too: http://www.supermotors.org/faq/post_pictures.php

Let's see those dyno results!!

OH - Way up there

Thanks E - will post as soon as possible...

Got the dyno sheet in my registry/gallery for your viewing pleasure...
http://www.fordexcursions.com/registry/vehicles/showmedia.php?id=166938
With only the Predator as a mod - and I wasn't the high 6-oh either...

Most stock 6-oh's were running at about 275 HP at the rear wheels on this VERY warm day...

And SERIOUS apologies for hijacking this thread !!!
