Hi all. Have read the boards before but just became a member today. I am a 35yo male with a 95 GT convert. I will list what all I did to the car last winter, and then list what issues I am having. Any insight is greatly appreciated!
It has the stock MAF, stock injectors, stock pressure regulator, no chip. Here is where it gets intersting. I read a Summit Racing tech article where they pretty much did the exact same build on a '95 and I am putting out substantially more power, and they did the injection and burned a chip. I will be the first to say my car only idles correctly about 10% of the time, and it runs FAT all the time (puzzling with the stock injectors??) My dyno #'s are as follows-
So after reading that Sumit Racing build up, I am almost scared I will lose power if I finish the last few things. I was planning on 30lb injectors, A MAF tuned to them, an adjustable regulator, having the chip burned and the trick flow nitrous system (hence 30lb injectors) I would leave it as is if it didn't use so much gas, idle horribly and I am worried I am washing down the cylinder walls!
Any good ideas before I spend another bunch of money?
