[QUOTE="Dagwood, post: 506323, member: 10356"] I agree; the JMS chip is history. It was suggested by Vortech through my performane shop. I am having the shop return it and I expect a refund since it never worked right. Now I am back working with Vortech to get a workable chip. After all, they sold me the complete system with chip; it should work properly and they do warranty their system. :bash: After I get the Vortech chip working right (correct fuel pressure at idle and under boost,) I will then work on new options. Specifically a dyno tune as you suggest. The shop I go to, "Street Stuff" in Addison Il, has told me they are working a deal to do their own tuning on their dyno, but they are dealing with JMS. I don't think I want anything else to do with JMS hardware or software. So I'm looking at other options. :cuss: As for the fuel pump. I'm using the pump that came with the Vortech system. THe paperwork indicates it is a 8F101-260. Also I noticed in the Vortech book they "stongly recommend" NGK#4177 or Autolite#764 plugs for "OFF ROAD APPLICATIONS". Is this fuel pump proper with the the supplied 42 lb injectors and what is the deal with the plugs. Are the NGK/Autolite plugs running cooler or hotter, and which is better for the enging? :??: Thanks :burnout: [/QUOTE]
