Uhm try putting your stock fuel injectors and maf back in??? Why did you upgrade maf/fuel injectors, you really don't need to and they won't gain you any power on a stock-ish NA setup

chadwilly:

Any codes? Do you have access to a datalogger? Datalogging would be really helpful. Have you checked that everything is plugged in correctly (unplug and reseat the connector for each sensor)? Have you checked that voltages and signals are correct at the TPS, IAC?

thats cuz your car doesnt even know what way is up right now.. when you unplug your battery for a period of time it clears everything and your computer has to re calibrate.. bigger injectors are for more fuel when adding forced induction or nitrous... you car will run just fine with your old 19lb. stuff

Your stock injectors will be just fine unless you get a set of heads that have a serious port job and you have an intake to match. I would suggest geting yourself an adjustable fuel pressure regulator and an Anderson PMS. Take that thing to a legit shop with a dyno after your headswap/cams and get some extra HP out of the motor. Hell, you could provably pick up some HP with just the PMS, fuel regulator and a dyno tune right now.

Click to expand...

if that doesn't work search for a vacuum leak with a butane/propane torch. The car idle will surge if you find the leak.
