yah well its not by choise. still not running right and the trany is having issues. slips like its not ingauging. will go kinda if i give it gas and ingauges for od. i will say dont ever change a bunch of stuff at once like i am. ok wham u win, im still not in proper working order, well more than normal. i am glad to hear u got it in with no problems and it sounds great. mine will run good with no muffler on it. smells bad rich. i am going to try pulling the rack and see if i have some leaky or stuck injectors. i was going to get different ones anyways but i am over budget now and wanted to wait till summer. it got some go to it if i give it some throttle so it runs great over 2k. have not run over 4k yet.

yeah mine is running pretty rich as well but i'm hoping the computer just takes a bit to learn itself. guess we will find out over the next few weeks!

sorry to hear you're having problems though man...i'm sure it won't take too much longer before you have her dialed in!

i figured it out on mine. fuel presure was to high. i took the rack off and set cardboard under the injectors, cut them small enough to make it easier. turned the key on and all the injectors squirted a good sized amout and then stoped. i checked and set it lower untill they all were not doing it then a little lower. i ended up about 28 to 36 depending on if the motor is running or right when i turn the key on. i noticed im losing pressure after it sets for several hours so i think ill switch the regulator and see if the one i have is not working. the one on there is a new adjustable one and is adjusting correctly and the other is a oem style.
