And once again, Ramchargers and Bob Bailey stepped up with a killer chip calibration for our MAF Translator Plus-equipped Buick. A BWL54B1F Extender chip was sent to control the 50 pounders--and a whole lot more. Very similar to our BYB54B3D Extender that barked orders at the 30-pounders, this version gave me high-speed data with IAC and cross-count readings on my Scanmaster 2.1. It was burned to control the 50s, and kept the same 98-octane characteristics with an adjustable base of 23 degrees of timing in low gear, 21 in high. The trick valet and anti-theft measures were still intact, as were all of the cool user adjustments: lean cruise, false knock ignore, MAF dropout eliminator, BLM lock at WOT, extra spark advance in low gear, launch assist, anti-stall, loop control, and shift light functions were loaded and ready. And if that wasn't enough, this revision "F" chip came with new features like WOT TCC lockup adjustment, spool fuel air/fuel ratio adjustment, low gear air/fuel ratio adjustment, SES shift light rpm adjustment, and low gear spark advance adjustment. The three most popular adjustments--open-loop idle, launch assist, and lean cruise--can even be changed through a scan tool without having to set computer codes (Although setting codes can still be used to enable the loop control modes). When I installed this new PROM and fired up the Buick, I was rewarded with smooth idle and part-throttle performance. The calibration is dead-on with these big squirters, and I couldn't be happier.
