And I get a lot of hlep from you guys on here so thank you 03OrangeSVT 10-02-2009, 02:17 PM I like the speed of the predator (and I like the Diablo software quite a bit) but I prefer to datalog with the SCT Xcal... it does a better job than the Predator. On the other hand you can use the predator without a laptop (it has a nice read out on the screen. They both are good setups.... but if you plan on datalogging I would go with the SCT. pitchedblack04 10-02-2009, 04:00 PM I went with the predator a few months back and sometimes it is the biggest pain in the ass to upload the log to the laptop. I dont know if its because i have vista or what. There are some other issues i have with the predator but overall i like it alot. I love the readout on the "big" screen it has. Its very easy to use but if i could do it over again i would prolly go with the xcal. People just seem to have less issues with the xcal. uzitoads 10-02-2009, 05:41 PM Sorry but what is datalogging exactly is tgat I have a idea but I want to be sure 03OrangeSVT 10-02-2009, 07:54 PM Datalogging is where you hook up the flasher to a laptop and record the engine data. uzitoads 10-02-2009, 10:06 PM Ok but can the Predato. Still do that I'm looking to buy the Predator off of Tom like tomorrow. pitchedblack04 10-02-2009, 11:46 PM Yes you can do it on the predator, and if your not going FI i would go with the predator. 03OrangeSVT 10-03-2009, 07:39 AM The Predator can datalog as well... but I think the Xcal does a better job of it. uzitoads 10-03-2009, 01:22 PM I'm going turbo soon pitchedblack04 10-03-2009, 02:10 PM Do the xcal then. uzitoads 10-03-2009, 06:09 PM How much do they run the xcal pitchedblack04 10-04-2009, 09:56 AM Look in in the focus power section. Tom has a special going on right know for the xcal3 and a dashscan tool. Seems like agood deal to me. If you only want the xcal pm tom he can get you one. uzitoads 10-04-2009, 02:14 PM Tom told me to get the predator even if I get a turbo. I don't know now. What is the best turbo to get. What about the focus sport diy or the full kit. Or toms diy FX4BAJA 10-04-2009, 02:58 PM Tom told me to get the predator even if I get a turbo. I don't know now. What is the best turbo to get. What about the focus sport diy or the full kit. Or toms diy Toms kit is for the Zetec-SVT and FS is for the Duratec. uzitoads 10-04-2009, 03:32 PM Ok thank you. Toms diy is the trubo is the one I'm going to get. pitchedblack04 10-04-2009, 05:44 PM Either one will work just fine for you man. Programmers that is. Like i said before i have some issues with the predator as far as uploading logs but over all i like it. Its pretty user friendly. As far as kits you do know toms kit is a full kit. If you look in the focus power section youll see what else is needed. uzitoads 10-04-2009, 06:48 PM Cool. I hope the tune will work with my pc it's a Mac. I do what a turbo. And I whole like to 300whp pitchedblack04 10-04-2009, 08:07 PM I dont know if it will or not. Its not the tune its the software you have to have to download the tune. I would check with sct or diablo depending on which your getting if their software works with MAC's. I have never used a mac so it might. Someone might chime in. 1turbofocus 10-08-2009, 09:59 AM As far as I know they both have MAC working with all software at this time Tom Blivit 10-08-2009, 10:27 AM SCT does not support MAC directly with any of our programs. I have heard of people getting our programs working using virtual machines or emulators though. As far as I know they both have MAC working with all software at this time Tom 1turbofocus 10-08-2009, 02:23 PM Thank you for the correction , I though SCT had the issues resolved Tom Blivit 10-08-2009, 02:29 PM Thank you for the correction , I though SCT had the issues resolved Tom We have no plans on supporting mac directly at this time. | |
