ADS Super Chip.... not working...Car wont start..

I have searched very little about the ads super chip... but i have had this since right after i got my trans am...I now know that i spent 27.00 on the wrong thing....I hust tried installing this and after instalation was complete the car wont start...it just turns over and nothing...sounds like it wants to start but doesnt.... After my search i found out i would be better off with a custom programmed chip and I believe that There are people on here that do this for a price....Ok so heres my question... is there something i can have done to get the performance out of my car after all the upgrades that i have on the car....It just seems like the car has more but cant unleash it.....I dont have any programming tools so i would like a chip that can be installed and ready to go... If there is someone out there that can do this for me let me know.... If i need more information just let me know... I will put a small list of some of the upgrades(motor wise) below...Please Please help me again....
Motor Upgrades
Full eldlebrok intake system(TPI)
Eldlebrok headers and Y pipe.
3" mandrel pipe to Flowmaster muffler.
Cold air intake
MSD streetfighter coil.
MSD ignition..
MSD wires
Accel spark plugs.
BBK throttle body
BBK under drive pulley kit(3 peice)
Im sure i have 4got some things but i will check again and Let you know if someone out there can help... I want to get the most performance with out opening the motor up... I am also pretty sure that the guy i got it from said he installed a different cam but im not 100% sure on that. Opps i forgot the mention that its a 305 TPI. If you need more information please let me know...
Once agian guys thank you very much for all the help
JOHN

Re: ADS Super Chip.... not working...Car wont start..

With minimal mods your stock chip should do just fine. However if you want a chip you can call tpis and tell them what you have and they can burn 1. Wont change much though just raise lockup and change fuel curve a little. But if it wont start maybe you installed prom wrong? is it a piggyback chip or stand alone. I know the old ads superchip was stand alone but must new ones arent. Superchip is prety close to stock chhip accept for at wot and even then its not SUPER.
