Scratching my head
Alright here goes another question

Car starts and runs (like shit) with chips in backwards Fans on check engine light on the common signs of ecu problems
Car wont start with chips in the correct way just cranks
boost leaks are checked for
new plugs and wires
when driving with chips in backwards it will break up bad because of dumping fuel
I know the tune has been worked on by marsh and im confident in his ability to get a rough tune on it.


Now wtf is going on is the question im asking

I'm thinking its time to start from scratch with a differenct ecu and board but want to hear some opinions from you guys

What injectors are they and what fuel pressure you running.

And didn't the bin corrupt or the chip damage by putting it backwards? Did you already re-burned the same bin again? or tried different chips?

not sure the car will only start with the chips in that way

just ordered new chips and we will see where that takes us

just had the car running the other day on a base de tune with the same chips we are burning now

The chips will erase fine but when verifying the bin in the burning program it will not verify correctly.

There is your problem. You're not burning them properly, or you're using software that's not functioning properly. Uninstall software and drivers, and start fresh with laptop.
