Will the commander digital gauges work with my predator??

redram410 · 10-23-2006, 07:59 PM

I have a 03 3500. its basically stock except for being straight piped and i also have a Diablo Sport Predator Programmer and i was wondering if the commander would be easier and better than 3 manual gauges?? Does it have any power levels or is it gauges only??

The commander can be used as a stand alone guage kit, or you can add power modules to it. It will control almost any module out there with the right adapter from Quad. I just installed mine this weekend, and would not recommend anything else if you are looking for guages. I like it, because of the options that it will take, and the price. The only thing you will not like about it is that it will show you real time what is going on, it is a lot faster response than the mechanical guages. I like that feature though. Just my .02

The Quad Commander is great, I really like it, but it will not control downloaders/programers. It will control just about any module/box you can think of, however. It is a good value as a gauge, because by the time you do the math on all the gauges it would take to monitor what 1 Commander does, the Commander makes even more sense.

You can use the Diablo as a "guage" as well. I've mounted mine to my dash to the left of the radio. I monitor trans temp, air temp, boost, hpcr pressure... and some others. There are literally dozens of thing that you can moniter. Nice size display also....

"trik" Do You Like The Diablo, Does It Seem To Do What They Advertise?

I like it alot. Tow is ok for mild power. Extreme is crazy... way too much fuel for a stock turbo. Performance is perfect. Very powerful and smooth... not too touchy or hard to drive like other programmers I've read about. Plus I've already updated it online, and I'm looking forward to getting some custom tunes programmed. All in all, especially for the money, I don't think it can be beat.
