Who says you can't run a stock ECU with 440 injectors and Ford MAF?

Default Stock chip?

Anyway, rev limit for stock would be where your dash turns from white to red ... aka "redline" ...

maybe around 6200?

Default I'll know once I get boost back...

my wastegate actuator broke. the max boost I can hit is ~2psi.

I'm switching to an external wastegate, parts are on order, should have it together this weekend.

But, it's really smooth, and actually starts on the first try now. Although I can't say if that's because of the chip, the bad ECU, or both.

external wastegate is better for the power you should be making anyway...good luck
