Should i get the computer chipped now that i have installed the new heads and intake? Mods are UDP's, BBk intake pipe, 73mm mafs,Gt40 heads,gt40 intake,bbk headers, full exhaust(no cats), and the enigine is a 308ci. I probably forgot a few. Also would this be a good time to upgrade the fuel pump. I have noticed the plugs are a little white, and i just replaced them a few days ago when i put the heads and intake on.

I'm running the factory injectors for the time being. I figured it was time to upgrade the pump. What about the chip? Is it kinda useless right now? Thanks for the input

A dyno tune is never useless. It may not be ness., right now. You could more than likely get bye w/ an uppgraded pump and adjustable reg for now. If you have any further plans as far as cam and what not than you might want to think about stepping up the injectors.

well since you are running stock injectors you will should at least go up to 24lb injectors with the mods that you have and dont forget you have to have the mass air calibrated for what ever size injectors you have. But for sure put a 255lph pump in the tank..

I'm not sure if it is a C&L or not. It was on the car when i bought it. It measures 73mm on the side closest to the throttle body. With that being said what are my options?

If I were you I would get rid of that C&L crap and get a Pro-M, Granettelli or something like that. The C&L method of recalibrating by way of changing the tube is not as accurate as calbrating it The electronic way that other companys do. Reason being the changing of the air tube like C&l does has no way of knowing air denisty it only knows air flow by changing the air tube diameter. The other method is that is done electroniclly is able to measure the air density because the denser the air the more resistance it has therefore the cars computer is able to adjust the air fuel ratio accordingly. Thats one of the reasons why for example stand alone programmable management systems do not recommend C&L mass air sensors...
