DFI owners help! Computer crashed lost my program!!!

Dracula383 · 01-18-2002, 02:12 AM

Well I lost all the info in my computer including a program I was planning on installing given to me graciously by another member. Can anyone email me a program perhaps??? I understand there are lots of variables like injectors etc., but it would give me a better starting point than what I have. Also of important note: the engines really a 355 not 383 :confused:
I am just really tired of the crappy program work my guy did on it! It dies sometimes when letting of the gas suddenly, smells TERRIBLE after WOT, and the WORST: It backfires every now and then when throttle is opened quickly (this happened the other day in front of a ricer...not pretty) :(
Well sorry to keep bothering you guys about this stuff but I figure if any of you can help I would really appreciate it because the "pro" just doesn't seem to know his stuff...and hes an official EMIC man.
Thanks any and everyone :seeya

Try this, load the Calmap program. After it is loaded hook it up to the ecm and get them communicating, then save the program. Now you have your program on the Laptop. Another scenerio you did not stat. Does your ECM have a program on it or is it messed up. Well get the ecm communicating with Calmap. Go into the global communications, go to utilities, in there Calmap will build a program for you, you just answer the questions it asks and then that will give you a base program that you can tune. Hope this helps. Ohyea this is for the 6.0 box.

If you still need help with this I can shoot you over one of my 383 programs, don't know how well it will work though.

Well guys thanks for the replies, I really appreciate it. Sorry I haven't responded sooner, my internet has been giving me lots of problems otherwise I would have been able to get back with you. I am going to try a program given to me by one othe the other members but I would except for sure anyone else's they would give me to try. In fact, Stingray Racing, it was your program I lost when my computer crashed so sure, if you would like to send it to me again I would appreciate it! Also can I ask you about your car? I was wondering what kind of intake and cam you are running? I am in the planning stages of rebuilding my motor and I like the results of your efforts :) I am considering a solid roller and AFR heads like yours and obviously its a potent combo. My main question I guess is, do you still pass smog testing? That would really be the only holdback for me. Well anyway, thanks for the help and suggestions EVERONE :) I'll keep you posted! :cool:
