Ok, I took some pics of my chip today, and also looked at the coding on it. It says ACDELCO AFAU with no other stickers on it.

pics are here

Still doesnt help to find out if it is a Jeff M chip, which one of his chips it is LOL, but maybe this will be a start..

Nope, not one of mine, looks like a stock chip, sorry.  To test real quick (start with a cold engine then drive for about 3 minutes) with the wastegate unplugged, punch it in first gear real fast, don't leave it there/foot down for too long, first gear is all you need and not even all the rpms, will be a short test, should hit some kind of fuel cut damn soon with the speed at which these turbos will spool without some sensable traction control in the chip, if not then someone did the chip and if no one here lays claim, I would be very concerned about running it!  Plug wastegate back in now :icon_lol:  BTW, this test assumes an upgraded air filter, or none and a short trip on a clean dirt free road only :icon_exclaim:

As for the boost pressure indicated on your dash, yea it should show that you got boost, but never use to decide more than that :icon_lol:.
