sounds like a bad tune (wrong stategy code? Make a mistake on your ECU code?) Try loading it again...

Also, don't try driving your car with the C&L installed without a tune for it... you car will be running extremely lean... (as you noticed your car is not running right... )

if he had the wrong octane it should still start up. if it is not starting that means the wrong tune is on the car

You might wanna try pressing the FUEL RESET button left of the OBD-II port (look in your drivers manual)

if that doesn't work:
e-mail him directly at bamachips@gmail.com
dont use the contact form on the website... I dont think it works
