Finally the FC hit the road but... =(

I drove my FC for the first time last night and after 2 blocks of driving it, it starts to bog out like a crazy bitch, backfires and doesnt get any better. While it's idling, it's fine. I rev it to about 4K while idling and it revs smooth but as soon as I drive it for a bit, it acts up.

Any idea what it might be.

Note: it's stock...engine is ported (BIG) and it has a 3" turbo back exhaust. Using RB fuel cut also. Oh and a 255 Walbro

Thx for any help

Eddie

Replace your fuel filter and check the fuel pump sock first thing.

How much boost and what size injectors?

Edit...Nevermind. TPS suggestion sounds better. Bad or unplugged.

Stock boost and 550 cc injectors (stock) the TPS is connected but maybe it is bad. I can use the NA TPS right?
