Possible Conflict Between the Predator and the Vararam B-2

[ESBESQ]

I just went through a real heap of problems after installing a Vararam on my 03 Z06 that had the Predator Diablo tune on it. So if anyone out there has the Predator and is planning to install a Vararam B-2, or if you have a Vararam and are planning to get the Predator, read this first: http://forums.corvetteforum.com/show....php?t=1716375 Hope it helps.

I'd like to say that everyone I know with a C5 or C6 has a Vararam on it and a Predator tune and I have never experienced any of the issues described here.

Thanks

Yeah; that's why the tech guy at Vararam knew exactly what the problems were the moment I told him that I had a Predator tune; and that’s why he specifically delineated how and why the problems were caused by the Predator tune; and maybe that's why when I uninstalled the Predator tune, the problems all miraculously disappeared. I guess there’s no explanation as to why the car now runs better than before with only the Vararam and its factory tune.

Perhaps I'm just the only one in the history of C-5 Z06s who's ever experienced this problem because I'm just lucky that way; and I’ve been sitting here boiling and writing these posts because I have nothing better to do with my time.

Hey, don’t take my word for it - buy a Predator, tune your Vararam equipped Z06 and drive it for a couple of weeks. When your foot gets tired from having to practically floor the car to get it to do what it used to be able to do effortlessly, then you’ll know what I’m talking about.

But Diablo seems to be claiming that it can walk me through a tune that'll make my Z perform well with the Vararam - so we'll have to wait and see.
