50# Ultimate chip problem....long

Hey everyone.....I have been thrown in the middle of someone elses mess - that someone else isn't a Ty owner, but my current employer who owns a shop and screwed this poor guy's ride up.

Here's problem no. 1: The Ultimate Chip (guage style) 9 times out of 10 resets it self to T2 F2 when the ignition is cycled. Has anyone had this happen? Any thoughts?

Problem no. 2: When the owner wished to have mods done, no base-lining to the vehicle was performed - I know it was towed in.....that's all.....after that, parts were thrown at it and here's what is currently on it:
1: 50# Ultimate chip
2: PTE51 Turbo/downpipe/cat kit (that's what is on the paperwork, but the receipt from RPM says PT44...so I don't know what turbo is in it!?!?!
3: APFR
4: New ECM (dealer)
5: New Prom (dealer)
6: New o2 sensor (dealer)
7: 170 deg t-stat
8: New plugs & wires
9: 3 bar map sensor
10: Walbro 255 fuel pump
11: ATR Water/Air IC

And last, but not least.....there were 50# injectors ordered...installed...then removed because "it ran like shit", so the OEM injectors were put back in.

Now.....in my mind....if the chip is designed for 50#'ers and you've got stock'ers (28#ish??)....it will be LEAN - right?? That's why the little red knock light blinks so friggen fast it looks solid and ALSO when you're in upper boost (12+) the truck shakes like a missfire.

This work was performed starting October of '03 - evil boss man gave his BS stories for about a year (hmmmm just enough time for warranty to expire), then sold him ECM,Prom, O2 sensor, plugs, wires, super cold t-stat at end of '04....

Let me stop here.....And moderators let me know if this post is in the right area.

Thanks and I eagerly await your replys.

Sounds like to me the chip is not the 50# version, but the stock injecter version. Check out www.sytychips.com, maybe it'll help with some knowledge. What kind of plugs are being uses, what is the fp set at, is the IC pump upgraded (lots of heat maybe), cap/rotor type, wires?

Wrong chip....you mean it not running well with the 50# injectors?? Ok...what do I look for on the chip to tell me that?

Also, what about it resetting to T2 F2 ?? Anyone had that problem?

Hmmm....well, based on what I see on the display (gauge style), vs. the description from the sytychips.com description.....I don't think it's the wrong chip. It reads T1 F1 thru F7, T2 F1 thru F7 security & valet. The Gauge style is only the 50# inj setup, right?

Anyway....how about the "resetting" problem? Glitch in the chip?

I also noticed that the chips currently are not being produced - are they still being supported?

Fuel Psi is @ 45 (base, vac off & plugged)
Plugs are CR42TS
Cap,rotor and wires are AC Delco
and I'm not sure on the IC pump....forgot to look.


Thanks for the help
