    Are there any Diablo Predator users out there who can provide a little more explanation on the following parameters? I want to get a Predator and improve the auto shifts but I want to understand what I'm getting first.

    Torque Modulation: This will adjust the amount of torque available during a shift, Setting it to 1 will allow 100% of the torque to be used during the shift, thus yielding a firmer shift.Amount of torque available during a shift?

    RPM Shift Point= Adjust the WOT shift point by RPM for each shift. WOT shift point? Seems self-explanatory. I understand this to be the RPM at which the shift will occur if the pedal is floored. But does this change part-throttle shifts?

    Shift Firmness= Adjust the WOT shift pressure for each shift, this allows for a firmer shift under wide open throttle.Shift firmness? What's a firm shift? Is this the duration of the shift? Again, this does not sound like it will affect part-throttle shifts

    I'm more concerned about part-throttle shifts vs. WOT shifts. I do 99.99% of my driving at part-throttle. Specifically, I want 1st and 3rd to hold longer and not shift into the next gear so soon. Is that possible with a Diablo Predator or any programmer?

    This is my daily driver, not a race car. I just want to make it more fun to drive.

    This is what I got from DiabloSport. *sigh* It almost sounds like a reply from outsourced tech support.
