The problem is that I am sitting in between ATI and their dealer (that I selected to install the kit).

The shop/dealer put on larger injectors 42# (36# recalibrated to 42#), did not use the FMU, used a lightning mass air meter. The stock procharger chip (autologic) has been custom reprogrammed by the dealer to fit this installation. The car ran fine on the dyno and fuel curves looked great.

A couple of day's thereafter the dealer took the car for a live test/clean up before delivery and the check engine light came on.

Apparently, the car would not idle correctly, stalls and does not perform well at all.

I had to pay for a new computer because I was told that TRAM/TROM? error code actually meant that a circuit was gone. Unfortunately the dealer said that it was impossible to prove why the computer broke. So I guess he did not want to pay for it and neither did ATI.

New computer, new chip and the car was picked up by me on trailer. Everything was fine until I took her out for a maiden voyage when after 25 min of driving the check engine light came on again. Same as previously described by the dealer. Poor idling characteristics, it stalls and does not perform well.

I get a new chip from ATI, through the shop that put the custom program on the chip again.

I tried the chip in my broken computer? (supposedly the same error).Result; high idle 900-1100 rpm, goes up and down. Can't drive the car. Misfires and has no power. back in the garage again.

The shop/dealer talks to ATI. Recommended solution; a new chip from ATI will be sent to me and guess what... you by a new computer and hopefully it will work???!!! (computer virus?).

I do not like to keep on buying new computers. Help!
