yes it is im haveing a hard time understanding stuff like fuel maps but im trying to lean as much about this stuff as i can i still need hardware like a chip burner and such but untill i get one of those im gonna get all the info i can

If you just need a tune, a little money for a dyno tune at a shop can do wonders. You don't have to do all of this yourself if you don't want.

Disabling the ELD circuit won't do anything unless you have an ELD fault or have some other genuine reason to do so. There are some ECU hardware mods that can trigger the ELD fault, but there is no need to disable it for performance gains. Leave it alone unless you have to.

Yeah apparently it has something to do with higher alternator amperage outputs? I guess it throws the code to keep you from burning your ecu up or something?

cool also wanted to know do you need crome pro to burn the chips with a chip burner or do you only need crome pro to data log?

Hmm. Good question, haven't come across that one before. I can't see how alternator amperage could cause a problem, but maybe voltage that was too high. I can't really say though.

I think you can burn chips with any version of Crome. It's an editing program, so I'd imagine it would be fairly useless without being able to burn the file to a chip once it's been edited. It's been years since I've used Crome, someone else can probably answer that better.
