I am gathering up parts to do a cam swap(and other mods)on my '06 GXP. I already have a Diablosport Predator tuner. Can this be used to tune my car after a cam swap or do I need a different tuner?

I was afraid that the Predator would not work. Would a Diablosport Intune work?
those diablo sport tuners are all pretty much the same thing. they have pre packaged tunes that are supposed to work on a variety of vehicles. they do not have the parameters built in to make custom adjustments and to take scans to see how your car is actually reacting to the changes. what you need to do is find someone local that can do the tuning. I wouldn't waste your time and effort on a tuner unless it is an hp tuner, or finding someone that has one that can do the tune for you.
Thanks for the info SgtMarshal. I will look into HP tuners since I am looking to do some major mods in the future.
there are some pretty good guides on here that will show you how to get started, and there are some pretty knowledgeable people to answer questions as well. I recommend the pro version right off the bat because you will want to install a wideband sensor and the pro version will incorporate the wideband much easier. the pro version does cost more money but its worth it. if you look in the pcm tuning section you can see more info on tuning.
Ignore all of the tuning you see done on this site and head on to the Hp tuners boards, You can do witht the standard version of hp tuners just fine, and still incorporate a wideband. but no diablo its garbage crap anyway.
I also have plenty of helpful guides for LS based stuff if you desire
Honestly the tuning thing will be new to me. I hear good things about the Hp tuners stuff though. Thanks for the input.
91parkave I have been looking at a bunch of your posts. You have done a lot of great upgrades. Thanks for taking the time to share the process with everyone. It's a lot less intimidating when you have a step by step guide.
I can write you a cam tune for your Diablosport, very doable. I prefer seeing the wideband readings like I can see with the Intune/Trinity and one of my rental wideband setups, however you can also install your own wideband to give me feedback (or I can probably give you a gauged rental, and you can again just give me verbal feedback on its readings)
