So I had evan come over and we did some more looking on the ae. With the 80 Econo tune the ICP at full temp is at 830 and 11.33%dc. Unplug the PCM and the ICP defaults to 724 and 14%dc. Stock 02' PCM the ICP sits at 480psi and 5.47%dc and defaults to 724 psi and 14%dc. I also have the volts if that would help. I'd just have to look them up.
My pressure goes between 470 and 550 at idle and about 12% dc. Mine is a e99 but has turbo update and T500 installed. Maybe sending it back one more time and see if it can be reset. Or take the ICP off the other truck and see what you got. Its not hard to do so why not.
Having to rely on being told what is happening is no where the same as actually being at the truck and data logging yourself. If the op feels its tuning related and is close enough to drive to Jody it will be the best we can advise him to do at this point. If it is a glitch in the PCM Reflashing it over and over will not correct the issues he is having. The tunes will not cause the values to be twice what it is calling for. He's replaced injectors and a hpop. Jody has seen different side effects from dirty ipr's. Checking it is just a suggestion.

I am trying to understand this statement since from what is being said, he is only getting the high numbers when the PCM with the 80e tune is installed. Putting in the 02 PCM returns the values back to the normal range. Without knowing all the details or what other things may effect it, it sure looks like the problem in somewhere in the PCM with the 80 tune. Is it possible that there is a problem with the truck that only shows up when the alternate values of the 80 tune are applied?
I am asking because I am considering ordering a DP tuner myself.

There's nothing wrong with the 80 tune, it mit be his PCM. I just gave the values I had on my tuner in 80E so I'm sure its something else. If you want to order I would do so, I'm very happy with mine here in California.
Well honestly im not blaming Jody. But obviously there is a problem somewhere. It's one of those things where we are just frustrated assuming everything was fine before. And now with the tunes the problem is more noticeable. How do I determine the PCM is bad or has a glitch?
Kinda on the same note, but mu truck has new sticks new chip no boost leak field bowl rebuild and eveeyhing else that I can check has been checked. Mu trick doesn't run exactly right and o am getting 14.5 on the highway when I shud get 16-18. Just saying there is something going on w my truck that I don't think is tuning. I got bad MPG w my old chip and sticks. Also bad w no chip.

Hmmmm... I just had a thought. My book says the Intake Air Temperature sensor sends a signal to the PCM and the PCM sets the idle RPMs. We all experience high idle after the truck sits a while, I wonder if something is at play here.
OK I think I am confused what is the pcm and where is it. I thought I was the main computer. You can't unplug that and start the truck. So with that said I am sure it is a sensor but which one.

Uhh? Unplug the PCM and you get a ICP DC? From what? It started? I must have been distracted on the first read.
Unplug the icp sensor and it defaults. Sorry about the confusion. I was either distracted or predictive text kicked in! All is good advice but it doesn't explain why the burnt PCM reads high and the stock '02 reads right where it needs to. But the stock PCM does have an extremely low dc.

My guess is that it's possible the programming was botched. I mean, stuff happens. I've sent out chips that had some really messed up binary on them after the chip was sent back due to improper operation in a position or two. Computers are always going to pose problems and they're not 100% fool-proof.
If you can swap PCMs and one does it while the other does not, I'd guess that it was a problem with the flash. I wouldn't blame Jody for it though because it's likely no purposeful fault of his own.... heck his computer could have had a USB glitch for a millisecond while doing the programming and it was just enough to mess up the burn. It happens.
