On the passanger side...... take out lower panel above the floor. Pull out the ECM ....look for a rectangular metal plate on top of the ECM w/ 2 screws in it.. Chip is in there. Just pull the two tabs out on each side of the chip and pull it out.

You're best bet is either burn a custom chip for your application or get someone to burn one for you. You probably don't want to hear that, but it's really the best way to go IMO.

If it is lean because of the hypertech chip being incorrect then yes a stock chip will fix it. Can also be a fuel pressure/delivery problem.
