Diablo Delta 2-program chip

[Todd Cloutier]

I'm selling a used Diablo Delta 2-program performance chip that was in my 2001 Trac. Included is the Diablo chip, and the LED indicator switch that lets you select the progam (Off, Program 1, Program 2). The chip is being sold AS-IS and will need to be reprogrammed for the new vehicle.

To help you find a perspective buyer, what was your ECU catch code?

Can the chip be reprogrammed to work with other ECU codes?

 

[Tom Schindler]

Yes, it can be reprogramed, but if someone already has the catch code as you do, there would not be any reprogramming involved.



For example, my 2000 Explorer is CDE2 and my Trac is SDQ2. If the Explorer had the same code as yours, your chip would have been sold.

How do you find out what your catch code is??

 

[Tom Schindler]

Under your hood, there is a wiring harness that has a bunch of wires going into it on the firewall. That is your ECU. There is a white label that has a 4 digit letters/numbers.

The chip has two programs on it, 87 octane and 93 octane. It's also set up for firmer shifting.

The only 4 digit code I can find on the big harness is 1L5T. Is this my code? and what is the difference between the Diablo chip and the X cal? Where does this chip go. Sorry for the stupidity

The Diablo chip plugs into the back of the ECU. You have to take the computer out of the truck to install the chip. The Xcal reflashes the ECU through the OBD diagnostic port.



Both the chip and the Xcal reprogram the truck's computer to increase performance, improve shifting, etc. The Xcal is a bit easier to use, but the Diablo delta allows you to change programs by flipping a toggle switch.

Lemme check my code.... When you say you have a 87 and a 93 tune.. does that mean performance, or towing, or better gas econ?? Which particular tune is it?



I know the Xcal for example has an 87 performance tune and an 87 towing tune.. (hoping this makes sense) So what "type" of tune is already programmed?





Also, will this take off the rev limiter as well?



Thanks in advance!

 

[Todd Cloutier]

Jack - Yes, that's the code.



Griff - They are both performance tunes. I got the chip primarily for the improved shifting, since my '01 Trac had the dreaded 2-3 flare. I don't know about the rev limiter.

Who does the reprograming and how much would it cost? If not too much, I'll take it
