You can't use a stock computer on something modified like yours obviously. Just call around and get a hold of a tuner after picking up a chipped ecu.

you've probably already caused irreversible damage to you engine by driving untuned on a stock ecu.

you should have probably asked these questions BEFORE you put the motor together. always surprises me how people never learn and do their due diligence until after the fact.

How long have you driven the car under these conditions? If everything was fresh and you drove the car with it running super rich you've probably done a little damage to the sleeves/screwed up the cross hatch. The excessive fuel coats the cylinders and washes away all the oil, because your rings haven't seated yet its possible they never will now. This is worst case scenario.

At the very least, stock injectors should've been used.
