Today I recieved my eprom ecu and stage 3 keydiver chip. I was going to wait til this weekend to install that and my injectors, but I got impatient. It ended up only taking 50 minutes to do swap both.

As far as customer service and shipping, it was top notch. It got here in 2 buisness days. There were a couple problems on my be-half but he kept communication everyday.

After the install, there were no problems at all, the car fired right up and idled even better, even with 750's installed now. I did a couple Wot's just through first and 2nd and the car felt a lot smoother. Before it was kinda notchy in a few spots, but now it is a smooth climb all through the rpm's.

I will try and do a couple logs tonight, just to see what my timing curve looks like.
 
Jeff is a good guy and has great customer service. When I installed my chip with 850cc injectors the car fired right up on the first try and idled like stock 450's. I have yet to log a pull, but the car feels good. My stock boost gauge is set to monitor knock and showed a little knock in 4th gear at 5500rpm, but there are other issues unrelated to the chip that's causing that, ie boost leaks.

I highly reccomend DSM Chips.
 
Ya i have a few boost leaks, actually one in my throttle body gasket. Im fixing that this weekend. I forgot to mention that it really seems to have a lot better throttle response to. Also my boost gauge was no moving at all, so I gues i have no knock.
 
Heres my log, Keep in mind its in 2nd gear, no third til 2 weeks from now. only 14psi on a t-25. How does i look? What are the downsides to doing a log in 2nd gear?

The timing looks good after about 5500, but before there you're going to have to do some fine tuning.

A boost leak will cause the car to run rich. Get it fixed and it'll run considerably better.
 
Well I didnt really go wot til 4200. It climbs to fast in 2nd like you said, so im up there before it starts logging, not to mention i only went half wot til I got to 4200. I dont know why. Im sure fixin my boost leak will fix that.
