I understand that part is that the MAF that goes in the pipe you have to weld?...i hear they have problems with the calibration..If its one you need to cut the pipe and clap did you try clocking it?>..maybe its not reading the airflow right..

Clocking it? Yeah it cut and weld. I might try to reverse it. Maybe it's backwards or something.

You can't run a chip without a dyno tune.
It's no secret that i think chips are worthless on foxes (especially under 500rwhp) and on an off the shelf i think that twice as much.

If i'm reading it right you have a pmas meter, if that's so, clocking it will fix nothing.

If it runs better without the chip, for sure you have found at least one problem.

Just advice, if anyone needs poweradders go through Chris at poweraddersolutions that guy stands behind his word. Thought I'd share.

What are you talking about? Chips aren't pointless. And if so why?
