Hi guys, the previous owner of my truck had a banks big hoss chip installed but told me when I bought the truck that it never really made any difference. I really didn't think too much of it but today I went down and took the ecm out and uninstalled the chip, low and behold I think I know why it didn't work: the contacts on the ecm were down to the bare copper, it that a really bad thing I am dealing with here? I was told that I would have to get a new computer if I ever wanted a chip to function in my ecm, does that sound correct? I am really wanting to get a dp chip, not really sure what setting to have installed though, my natural reaction is to go for all the high hp setting stuff, but what might you guys recommend? I have an upgraded turbo, intercooler, exhaust, intake, gauges, the usual suspects. I would really appreciate some insight from you that have the wildman programs set up and how you like them. This is a truck that i drive occasionally but mostly on the weekends since it has 14" of lift and 22.5 alcoas on it, more of a show truck then a daily driver. I forgot to add that I have a granatelli big g module in it now that I would probably take out if I could run a chip like I really want.
