    Diablosport Tuner (Model U7140) for 2005-06 Mustang GT/V6 for sale

    Just sold my 06 and have a Diablosport tuner for sale. I reloaded the factory tune in the GT before I sold it, so I believe the tuner can now be used on another vehicle.

    I was always skeptical about tuners (never used one before) but the Diablosport really changed my opinion. I could definitely feel (and hear) the additional power with the 93 octane tune, but I really liked the fact that the Diablosport tune eliminated the drive-by-wire lag and other factory nuisances.

    With the factory tune, when the clutch is depressed, you can’t blip the throttle when you downshift. Also, when you upshift, the factory tune kills the power when you push in the clutch. With the Diablosport tune (and other manufacturers, I presume), it feels like you’re driving a car that has a real cable between the gas pedal and the throttle body. A lot more fun to drive.

    I used the tuner twice a year starting in 2007 before and after my state inspection.

    I paid $319 for it new (I still have the receipt, box and instructions). Will sell for $150.

    I live in the eastern part of Pittsburgh and could meet the buyer somewhere convenient.

    Spec’s are below:

    This is a steal! Someone needs to grab this- this will turn your S197 GT into a totally different animal. Free bump!

    The following tunes are "pre-programmed" in the tuner.

    Performance Tune for 93 octane

    Performance Tune for 91 octane

    Performance Tune for 87 octane


    Horsepower gains (as advertised by Diablo) are:


    GT 15-20 rwhp 20-25 ft/lbs (depending on octane)

    GT with CAI 20-30 rwhp 25-35 ft/lbs (depending on intake)

    V6 15 rwhp 15 ft/lbs (87 octane) 20 rwhp 25 ft/lbs (premium)


    All you do is select which one you want and then push the "select" button and the tune is downloaded to the vehicle. The tuner automatically saves the factory tune in the tuner, so you can always go back to the original tune (like I did when I sold my GT).

    You can change the following things in the tune but (other than adjusting the axle ratio for my 4.10 gears) I never messed with any of these (I just used the stock tune as is):


    Dual timing adjustment points (2000-4000 RPM / 4000-7000 RPM)

    Timing table (+10% / -40%)

    Dual fuel adjustment points (2000-4000 RPM / 4000-7000 RPM)

    Fuel table (+40% / -15%)

    Idle (+/- 20%)

    Global Timing adder -6 degrees /+4 degrees

    Raise Speed Limiter

    Rev Limiter

    Re-Calibrate Speedometer for Gear and Tire Size Changes

    RPM Shift Points, adjustable via MPH

    Cooling Fan ON/OFF Temperatures

    MAF curve adjustment


    You can also download tunes from the intenet (I think). I never did this and I think you need to buy a cable (9 pin to usb) from Diablosport. I'll see if I can find a link to the instruction manual....

    See the following link for various Diablosport instructions:

    https://www.diablosport.com/index.ph...isplay&pid=187

    Regarding the cable (if you want to download tunes from the internet):


    NOTE: DSDownloader does not work with Belkin brand USBserial cables
    Purchase
    From: http://www.diablosport.com, click Products, then Online Store buy part #U7778 for PCs that have USB ports, OR U7777 for PC’s that have a serial port

    OR from Radio Shack, Best Buy etc:
    USB to Serial cable OR a straight 9pin Serial/Serial cable
    and a 12 v 1 amp power cable, center pin is positive

    Again, I never did any downloading of tunes from the internet or made any custom tunes. I was very happy with the pre-programmed "default" performance tunes that are on the tuner.

    Weird that it only works on 05-06 GTs- that's really suprising to me- the SCT X3 that I have works on all year S197s.

    I'm the artist previously known as "gd06gt".

    The tuner is sitting in my closet collecting dust.

    Such a good deal would it be possible to prove that it works and isn't paired with a vechicle?

    It takes about 10 minutes to download the tune. We can meet in a parking lot somewhere and download the tune. If it works, you give me the $100.
