My 5.7 Diablo Review

[Robert Palmer]

Wooooooohooooooo!!!!


Installed the Diablo!

Messed with the parameters:

1.) MDS OFF

2.) Shift points on 1-2 and 2-3 to 5700 RPM's :D

3.) Raised Speed Limitor to 155 MPH (Dont worry, I'm not going to even try it.)


Oh my god this thing is the shit! I am squealing the tires whenever I launch from a light. No need to powerbrake anymore. :D Crispy shift points. Its like BOOM BOOM between each gear. I love it. Can't wait to get to the track!!!!!!


I already filled up twice. :D


Thank You Tbyrne Motorsports and Thank You Diablo!!!!! :ftmfw:

I recommend this product to everyone.

[Robert Palmer]

^Classified info. :D

[White WK Swagga]

Oh so that's where you've been lately Elvis. Depleting our oil reserve. It figures why fuel shot up to 2.70 a gal for reg. LOL

[ducks unlimited]

do you have to have it plugged in when you driving? and can you undo the changes

[Robert Palmer]

@ Nate- No comment. LOL


Oh and by the way just to let everyone know, I installed the 93 CAI tune.

[BillsHoe]

Funny is I get better gas mileage with the predator. But ripping up my tires, money well spent

[Robert Palmer]

do you have to have it plugged in when you driving? and can you undo the changes

No dude. You only have it plugged in while driving when you want to Live datalog.


Yes you can undo the changes. The Diablo saves your stock tune.


Go get yourself a muffler and a Diablo bro!!!!

[tman4024]

So Joe what are you getting for gas mileage? Getting more than 90 some miles to a tank? haha

[Robert Palmer]

@ Alex-So do I. Good thing I dont pay for maint, gas, insurance because if I did I would not have a diablo.


I only pay for certain accessories. And the Diablo made me myself broke. Pops wont give me an advance on my paycheck. :(

[Robert Palmer]

Honestly bro IDK. I was too busy ripping up the highway and streets. :D

[Robert Palmer]

^IDK but I know its quicker.

[DirtyBlackJeepSRT]

ETown Saturday and report back. :D I'd say go tomorrow, but it's going to rain.

[Robert Palmer]

No, no E-town Saturday.

[Bslagle05]

dam im so jealous Joe!!

[DirtyBlackJeepSRT]

They got another event going on?

[LTrainGC]

Joe, do you think the extra power is spread evenly over the entire powerband?

I ask because I feel like the 91 tune on the superchips applies more of it's umph above 2500 RPM. Driving around town normally when I keep the revs below 2500/2600, it doesn't feel much different than before - but if I get it to 2500 and dip into the throttle a bit it takes off like a bat out of hell.

Its not that, I'm not going on Saturday.

I can feel a difference at that lower RPM. Its way different than Stock IMO. The throttle lag is REALLY reduced with this Diablo. When at in town speeds, I dont get that lag when I lightly hit the gas like before. This is a great tool.

When you get beyone 2500, the Jeep runs like you said, a bat out of hell.

Also IDK what it did but my exhaust seems louder. (It might be in my head though.)


I can only imagine what a CMR tune will do.

Yeah the throttle response for me is 100% better.

I agree with the exhaust too, I noticed it sounds not so much louder, but a little beefier if that makes sense.

[tman4024]

Joe, maybe you're regaining some of your hearing :p

[DirtyBlackJeepSRT]

Saturdays are not cool or something? :p

I'll loan you some money, Joe. http://www.cherokeesrt8.com/forums/images/smilies/deal.gif

[Robert Palmer]

No I dont go unless there is a trophy, points, and/or some money for the prize. :D

[dreamer1213]

Sounds awesome Joe...I'm happy you finally got your precious Predator...LOL...when I'm up in NY, you'll need to take me for a spin...hehehe ;)

[Robert Palmer]

What are your thoughts?

[LTrainGC]

What do you guys think about my shift points being at 5700? Good? Bad?

What are your thoughts?

I raised my rev limiter from 5800 to 6000 I think.

My WOT 1-2 shift i bumped up to 5600 or 5700, I can't remember, same with the 2-3 shift.

[Robert Palmer]

So is anyone else getting a Diablo? I know Jeremy is.


Does anyone know what exact HP/TQ numbers the 93 CAI tune is giving? I saw from a website (not diablo) that said 25/30.

[blackpepper]

I'm thinking about getting one.. :D



Installed 91 octane tune.

1-2 shift is set to 5700rpm and so is 2-3

I raised the rev limiter 50rpm :D

Turned MDS off. With the tune, MDS kicks in hard when around town. Since it goes on/off so often.. I turned that sucka off.

Going to bed.. will drive it tomorrow. 1/2 tank, no spare at the drag strip. I'll report after with some time slips.
