You've got something else going on other than the chip. You have a loose wire or a sensor that is not triggering a SES code.

With his car stock, an off the shelf chip is all he needs. There really is no need to data log. You can only do so much with a stock vehicle with the PROM. Alvin can hit the tune pretty much spot on and if Dale wanted to hit a dyno, and do a custom tune and spend a couple hundred bucks more and get a minimal horsepower gain.
I am with Jeff on this 100%.
I reiterate - check the MAF harness. Also check all sensors for bad connectors or something to that effect.
Also, doing a tune on an otherwise stock motor is like putting lipstick on a pig... sure, you can do it, but why bother?
