You need to be WAY more specific about what's going on.


The Evolution is a flash programmer, not a chip. Just picking nits.

I had an edge evolution for a while and sometimes it would do something to screw the fueling up. It would have no power at all and would show a negative boost until I got to around 2100 rpms. I would reset the programmer and all would be fine. I got rid of the edge and installed a TS 6 position chip and no more problems!

Not hard at all, just follow the directions supplied with the chip. Took about 20 minutes.
