    What would a tuned chip cost me or just the tune emailed?

    Post three on this gearhead tread shows how to correctly install the Ostrich 2.0 in the 94 K1500: http://www.gearhead-efi.com/Fuel-Inj...th-Ostrich-2-0

    Perhaps you can correctly install the Ostrich 2.0 into the 94 K1500 computer?

    The lowest cost / quickest option for a chip is upload the binary or .bin file into the Ostrich 2.0.

    The more expensive / slowest option is to have a G1 adapter with custom chip (memcal not included) shipped.

    If u can't afford to be with the truck a spare stock computer is a great help.if u run into an issue simply plug the stock unit back in so it can be driven.scrap yard ecm are usually cheap.same with ebay.that way u can mod the one u plan to use with out the risk of having no ride.Dave w is a great help and helps all us newbs get things rolling along with all the other members this site will make it easy to get tuning.it's a lot of reading and rereading to get an idea of what to do.it gets easier as u learn the programs and different terminology used to describe things.

    I know Ill always have the stock memcal and chip to fall back on (got it saved), but with the current mods and no egr will the stock tune even run worth a crap or not? My round trip 5 days a week is 80 miles a day mostly highway. This is y im wanting to buy an upgraded bin so I don't have to worry bout it and can start tuning it from there as I add more upgrades. So does anyone do this?

    Set the EGR "ON" minimum temperature to MAX (151c) to disable the EGR. Turn off error code 32 to prevent the Service Engine Soon from coming on for an EGR error. Sometimes a beginning chip programmer thinks turning off error code 32 only is the only programming needed disable the EGR. Some experienced chip programmers will use a "Belt & Suspenders" method to disable the EGR and also set the minimum speed to enable EGR to MAX (255 mph).

    If the engine was rebuilt stock and the only engine modification was removing the EGR, the stock chip programmed with the EGR disabled will work.

    If there are other engine modifications, please list them in this tread. Modifications like Injector Upgrades, Exhaust Upgrades, and Performance Camshaft.

    I drove a TBI G20 van for nearly 6 months with a stock chip despite having a Mellings MTC1 cam, 14022601 53cc chamber 305 heads, and an Edelbrock performer RPM intake on it. I also had long tubes and full exhaust. I had the fuel pressure bumped to 14 psi and set the timing to about 8° BTDC. Ran and drove just fine on the stock chip after knocking out the minimum air rate screw cover on the throttle body and adjusting the idle to 650 rpm with the IAC forced closed and disconnected (Jumper A to B in the ALDL like you are checking codes, leave the key on for 30 seconds, and with the key on disconnect the IAC connector). I then reconnected the IAC and the ECM was never able to let the idle go under 600 rpm in drive. Ended up later tuning that setup as well as swapping in a F-car LT1 cam and ported 193s.
