Installed Vortech Supercharger no power!!??? HELP
#22
I am not sure how to use the live version, When i put it in it said reduced engine power, and turned on my check engine light.
I do not want to sound stupid but could it be since there is so much boost and the throttle body is electronically controlled not cable controlled that maybe the throttle body butterfly is not opening up all the way because of the boost pushing on it?

If you're getting the reduced engine power light on the cluster, then its the tune. It is not telling the computer to expect the additional air from the boost. The PCM sees too much airflow and just cuts power. Where did you get the tune from? Does it lose power at around 3000rpm or so?

The reduced engine power is when I use my diablo.
The vortech came witha superchips. It does not have any problems. I talked to a mechanic and he said that if the vehicle was not getting enough fuel it would make the vehicle act the way it is acting also. I am at a total loss of what to do.

Did you load the Superchips tune on top of a Predator tune or was the tune 100% stock when you uploaded the Superchips? If you load over an already pepped up tune it can cause issues. Is there away to unload the tunes an reinstall the superchips? Also, make sure your battery has a solid charge before loading the program.

yes, I am running a FMU, it is on a tilt, that shouldnt affect it though should it?, also it came with diaphrams for a 2000 and 2004 models to change out. My truck was built in 2000 but is classified a 2001, do you think it is possible it has a 2000 model engine?



stock injectors are ok for a low boost setting
