i'm pretty sure it will see the boost, but it doesn't have the fuel maps to feed it.

it will run like pooooo and dump black smoke out the tail pipe, flooding the motor and causing bearing failure. but you can try it if you like, I've seen what it can do.

Yup, it's NEVER a good idea to tinker around with things that are vital to providing information to the ECM how the truck is running. Especially when there isn't "support" to "translate" what that new information means... Dig deeper into your pockets and get a 3 bar chip in addition to a 3 bar MAP sensor. Or become the next poster boy for "how to break a truck with as little money as possible"...

haha Dont want to break it... Just didnt know if the chip was jsut for fine tuning... or to give it new maps... Looks like ill save and buy both at the same time... thanks guys.
