Default ecu issue!! please help

i have a p91 ecu that is identicle to a p28.

it was chipped by someone and is using a map that was done when the car was dyno tuned.

the ecu loooks to be done right. i mean its not done cleanly but all the diodes are there.

when i plug it in, the car starts up and works fine for 2 seconds... then after 2-5 seconds the engine light comes on and the car only revs for 3800 rpm. i get an injector code when i look up the cel flashes.


the motor is a 99 gsr wired for obd1. is it because of the dual runner intake manifold with the butterflies????

i really cant figure it out.

here is a post with pictures of the ecu and info.

thanks

The dueal runner IM has a default for the short runners (high RPM mode). It provides no feedback to the ECU. What code are you receiving?

That ecu looks like it was chipped by some one a long time ago.

The dual runners have nothing to do with the issue you are having.
What exact code is the ecu throwing ?

Code 14 is an idle air control valve...

There could be a driver in the ecu that is bad.
