Got chip in, MAJOR problem

Got chip in, works great. Turbo really seems to whistle ALOT. And weird noise, like a bolt or something rattling on steel. Its coming from the air filter. its a AFE intake. What kind of problem do i have now? I love that chip!! is it normal for the service engine light to come on somethimes

Yes the ces light will come on. One thing you can do is get a map fooler that will stop it from coming on a little bit.

As for the noise just check everything under the hood. Double check to make sure ntohing is loose.

It will do that. Pretty much anything other then stock setting when you get on the accelerator hard will set off the ses light. Usually with three codes. Sometimes you will not be able to pull those codes. It is perfectly normal to have the SES light be set off when running a tune.
