Its a Diablosport tuner from 2008. All it says when you tune it is Diablo Tune.

That sucks. On my SCT, I can go and look at the specifics of my tune. I can only view it, not edit it.

If I updated it I could have an octane tune from what I've found. I can edit it and change parameters like spark advance, rpm limiter, speed limiter, idle rpm, O2 sensors, gear ratio, tire revs per mile and more. I keep the tuner in the trunk so I can adjust anything I need to.

Nice. You should also be able to disable traction control as well. A lot of mustang guys do that.

TC was disabled when I bought it which is why it was only driven in the rain once before it got parked when it rained. I turned it back on but I can turn it off by the button when I want it off.

That's what I do too. I don't get why it's so hard to just push a button to turn TC off lol.

I guess convenience of being able to have fun on a spur of the moment type deal. When I retuned the car after fixing the evap leak I forgot I turned TC on and drove the hell out of the car and it wouldn't do much of anything. I was like wtf. Got halfway back on my test run before I remembered I turned it back on. Even with better tires on the back it spins in the rain without trying. Tc light is always flashing on the dash. Sumitomos suck

Sumitomos are crap. Only reason they sell is because they are cheap. I wouldn't put them on my Ranger lol.

I wish E85 prices were that cheap here. Since we only have 2.5 E85 stations here, it is more expensive than premium.
