Diablosport Programmer

phazedragon · August 20th, 2006, 02:43 PM

I have a diablosport programmer for my 98 mustang and i can't seem to go online to diablosport.com anymore as the website is down and i was wondering if someone here could answer a question for me. i also have a 1996 aerostar that the check engine light just came on and i was wondering if the diablosport programmer would read the diagnostic codes from the van. Any help would be nice

thank you

i seriously doubt it. i know diables stuff only works on certain cars as where the sct stuff i belive can do all of fords obdII cars

For diagnostics, Predator doesn't lock itself to any vehicle, you are free to use it on as many vehicles as you wish.

Note: Predator is not a complete OBDII diagnostic tool, meaning it doesn't communicate to all vehicles in the parking lot. If you own a Predator for Ford, you can diagnose all OBDII compliant Fords. If you own a Predator for GM, you can diagnose all OBDII compliant GMs. The reason is that Ford and GM has different hardware interface. (Those feeling like dwelling little deaper in the subject, check out our automotive books written in a "Popular Mechanics" style...)

i got this right from diablosport.com

Thanks again

Hey I have a question about this programmer. A friend of mine just got one for his GT, will this work on my 6. I'm hoping to meet up w/ him later to try this out but hopefully will get a reply if it's a waste of time or not before then. I primarily just want to eliminate the top speed limiter on my 6er. If that works then see what else I can do with it.

don't know much about the diablo stuff but the SCT handhelds are locked into each car, so even though the OBDII diagnostics works on other vehicles the reflashing wont, this is how they make their money... if it didn't work like this everyone would be sharing handhelds.
