running a little better


well when i put my new CAI on i burnt one of the wires and it was arching off the header so i changed the wires and bought an msd balster 3 coil when i switched my valve covers and put the spacer on... well i forgot to plug in the throttle position sensor.. so it idled fine but it didnt rev for shit... thats what u saw in the video.. well i figured that out pluged it in and it started running better i drove it and it still wasnt driving very well,so i turned the fuel pressure down to 30 (idleing) and it runs better i can stomp on it and it wont chug and pop but it takes a few seconds before i feel any desent power.. but i havent gotten it tuned yet so i am confidant once they shorten the injector pulse and turn the fuel pressure back up that it will run like a raped ape

i have a walbro 255lph fuel pump in it..the reason your problem went away is cause u had 30 lb injectors... the stock computer can only handle 30 lb injectors.. i have 38lb injectors so i have to get it chipped and tuned to shorten the injector pulse.. i have sutch large injectors its pretty much dumping fuel into it and i cant turn the fuel pressure down too much or i will lose my spray pattern and i might lean it out too much and cause detonation..
