I think that your right in saving the 350 odd dollars if you plan to stay stock. Both Diablo and Superchips have dyno runs that show 10-20 hp gains. Without knowing the exact circumstances of the testing its hard to take those gains to the bank or if one actually outperforms the other. I believe both remove a measure of safety built into the stock tune by advancing timing and cutting fuel to achieve their horsepower gains.

For my heavily modified and unique engine setup the Predator is the hands down winner and has given me over a 1.5" 1/4 mile gain from my tune with the Flashpaq . When I started tinkering with my tune in November I was running an abysmal 1/4 in the low 14s(no DA correction) with my current mods. My last run with a CMR tune I was running mid 12s (no DA correction). The ability to tweak the timing and fuel maps along with higher shift points and further reduction to torque management the Predator and CMR tune is a godsend for the heavily modified engines.
