i put my 450cc dsm's in and a chipped ecu..it didnt idle smooth and would die out so i turned that thing on the throttle body and now its doesnt die out but idles funny..would i have to get it tuned or is there a way to fix it and run un-tuned for a while?
the person who tuned my car said the chipping he used is called Atmel 29c256

He provided you with the brand/model of the chip, not the name of the software he used.

I would recommend you consult a local tuner or get a better eprom basemap.

I would definetly get it tuned if you put new injectors on.

If I were you I would just try and not drive it until you get it tuned....because you might mess something up.

So basicly whats happening is, your car probably had smaller injectors lets say the injectors were half the size 225's and you put 450's in it, now i know this isnt accurate by any way but your getting 2x more fuel at idle then you should , it probably bogs down to s**t at idle, like your flooding the engine.

feel free to correct me if im incorrect in saying this.
