Default Check Engine Light with UBERTEG Chip Help!!

Hey I was testing my set up yesterday and it was running fine, not boosting (see below), I am running 440s and the uberteg chip.. anyways my question is: Do I still need to run check valves or a missing link because after about 10 mins of driving I get a CEL and the car dies out.. I just turn the key off and restart it and the cel light goes away and I can drive fine again.. is this because I need to run a missing link? The only reason I dont think i do is since I am not making boost can I still have this problem? TIA!

hey, you need to check and see what code your CEL is throwing.. also its a good idea to get in contact with the guy who you got the uberteg chip from as he may be able to help.

Mine did that while the stock o2 was out while tuning with the wideband.. Make sure you didn't loose connection with your o2 sensor.

Sounds like you're jumping fine. Is the chip installed properly? Check all your connections. Does it throw a CEL when you boost?
