There was a trypo on the build sheet

pistons are 890cp30

-22 cc dish pistons. called the company, they said with those pistons and my small chamber head that it would come to 9.06/1 and with milling on the heads it would be about 9.4 or 9.5 to 1

So at least one possible mistake has been eliminated

ANNNNNNND the winner is! stupidity.
so, at this point ive been without my car for months, had to drive to my divorce in my beat up truck AND have an anemic cam because a combination of geniuses thought a to aggressive cam was making the new chip not work....so they switched it out.

It took me calling Pcmforless several times myself to get it sorted out.

the new chip was installed in place of the stock chip, instead of piggy back with it, the guys from PCMforless did not even consider that might be the problem cus they didn't think the car would even run like that.

who do i blame? EVERYONE not sure id do buisiness with any of them again, accept the mechanic feels so bad he is going to install my supercharger intake and injectors for free to make up for it. but I still have a crappy cam, and he dosent want to pull the motor again.

worst part is I will be getting it dynotuned after the super charger and could have just got by on the stock chip.
