I dunno, I'll do it for like 12 bucks or something.

You are SOL." maybe this isnt the way to go.
BUT STILL...unless you KNOW what your AFRs are...if you rip on your motor on a basemap, you could be asking for trouble.

I do have to cover my *** in the worse case scenario but I will attempt to claim that after chipping 500+ ECUs and setting each of them up with a basemap, I believe there is a certain knack for it, and 8 times out of 10, I dont hear anything but praise about the basemap that starts and runs a customers cars. The other 2 times, they usually ask why it is running so bad...and it almost always turns out to be an issue or problem with the car...not the ECU or basemap. Now I cant claim to have a perfect record by any means...but its darn good.

Chris knows whats up. Dont expect a simialr set up to react like another simple idea. Want to do it right have it tuned by someone with background and a wideband, thats why there are tuners.
