Anybody ever install the vortech kit as is (BTM, FMU, t-rex) and run stock 19lb injectors with no tune and not have problems (94-95 GT). I've tested everything seems to be functioning like suppose to, but the car will not accept the boost. I know I need bigger injectors, MAF and tune, but just curious if anybody ever got there car to run decent with the items in the kit.
(tried tuning with fuel pressure, locking out timing nothing works. My car just gets tip in detonation and sputters, never really make it into to much boost).

if you are using the stock MAF, you could very well be pegging it.

Is it possible to peg it before 3000 rpms? most of my problems are occuring between 2300-3500rpms, can't go over this to much detonation and sputtering. thanks for the help

turn your timing down and did you bring the gap on your plugs down to like 35 instead of the stock 54. Boost and high cyl. press. can blow out a plug.
