I would start with the fuel pump rewire though and see if that makes any difference. If you do you'll notice a richer idle, but besides that the computer will compensate for the extra fuel pressure since the fuel pump will constantly be at full power.

Let us know how it goes...
This could be but I had a similar problem, with my old set up and
it was the coolent sensor at the water pump. Just my 2 cents Hope you
get it fixed.

Problem solved. Somehow one of the pins in the mass air harness backed out just enough to lose connection. It would run fine in closed loop but when it went into open loop it lost its mind lol. Thanks for the 680s sam. Major afr improvement. Gonna dig up my other injector clips and install the 550s for my primaries.

Sweatness Mills. Glad I could be of service

On a side note. I have repainted the hood on the van, recleared above the windows, and the front half of the roof. I am going to paint the bumpers and the side molding to make everything blend in better. I hate to admit this, but the old girl might be accepted in my stable.

189tq and 247hp on 6psi. Would have been more but come to find out the turbo I have is reaching max efficiency at 4k rpms and can't keep up with the bridge after that.

Mmmmm. TO4E sweetness. I can't wait to for you to get that sucker installed.

Long, I wouldn't mind going to that dyno. Especially seeing how Dave is saying he is going to be there. I think we would blow their minds with a couple of turbo first gens

Bryan..... I've known you for 10+ years and im definitely ready to see the old beast back in action. The 3 rotor might be nice as well, but just remeber there is a certain widebody silver car that needs to be de-throned first.. ahahahahahaha.

Dual bosch 044 in the cj motorsports hanger is complete. Big boost coming soon.

Hey Kory! Welcome back dude. I told you we need to figure out what the deal is with your EGI. There has got to be something we're missing. The last time that I talked to Long about your car, we discovered that the RE-EGI computer goes stupid without the 5-6 ports actuator soliniods hooked up and fuctional. Maybe worth investigating.

Anywho, glad your coming back home.

Neal, don't you have to be ON the throne to be "de-throned" ?

Sean says he's been on the throne for the last 5 years (and it feels great) (Sorry- its late, I'm tired and taking a break)

Oh, yes. Pics look good. Also looks familiar. I think you'll be happy with going with a TO4E hybrid. I have been loving mine. It looks like you might be a contender

On a side note....

KUDOS to Rotorsports Racing and their paralell oil cooler kit. I just got done installing it, and it was a very easy install with great color picture instructions and best of all the custom lines made by Goodridge.

Again thanks. I have pics that i took with my phone but dont know how to post them on here.

Bryan is the man. If you have trouble with tiny pic, you can also try photobucket.
