Ordered goodies from clay!!!!!

I ordered a set of ev2's from clay and a drain valve too boot. Can't wait for it to get here friday. I have a diablo chip sitting on my office desk but I can't run it. I took my truck in a while back and they changed my cal id in the pc and it doesn't work anymore. bummer.

I had them replace an injection drive module and while it was in there they took it upon themselves to update my pcm. They did it without asking or letting me know. They never would do anything about it even after I confronted them.Less than a year later they were out of business. i was told be the service mgr that they changed the cal id in the pcm to wipe out chips ect to prevent for from having to honor a bogus warranty claim. i had 176k on my truck at the time. I was hot! i wish I knew how to get it working again.

Daniel are you running a diablo programmer (plugs into the port under the dash)? Because if you are your options where/are:

Return to stock before bringing to dealer.

Now it's VIN locked, send back to Diablo and they can unlock it for you, so you can use it again.

It isnt a programmer, it is a chip that plugs into the pcm that is the little black box under the parking brake. can I send it back to diablo to have them fix it?
I just did a little reading .. it's a delta chip

I didn't know diablo made that. It is worth a try sending it back...give them a call first. Or you could go the route of many and get a PHP or TW or DP... this is in no specific order.

I am on diablo's website and from what I am finding I have to send the chip back to have it done. But....it looks like the chip is so old that there isn't alot of support for it anymore. Come to think of it I remember calling about this a while back. I think I found that it wasn't worth it for some reason or another. I need to call again just to make sure. this is going to suck if i can't get it working
