Do you roll into the throttle or stab it?
i suggest to return to stock TCU and stock gear ratio.
if u have on the car another TCU, it will not connect clearly with the ECU, and u can verify this with star diag as the tcu will not take coding with the vin/model designation of the car.

Update fellas,
We are re-doing the fuel system now to return style. The fuel pressure is dropping during a pull and throwing misfire codes.
The current fuel system is:
1000cc injectors
dual 340lph Division X fuel pumps
modified stock fuel baskets to accept more fuel
brand new sender unit assembly
BIP looped rail with drilled out feed rail opening
The pressure is sitting right at 82psi at idle, and at the end of a pull where is starts to break up, it is 67psi. This is with seeing 13 pounds of boost.

Changes that were made to the fuel system are as follows:
* Took out the factory sender unit, and removed the stock fuel filter.
* Removed the factory fuel pressure regulator below the sender unit.
* Ran a bigger feed line upfront to the fuel rail, and put in an inline fuel filter.
* Ran a return line back to the gas tank off the loop portion of the fuel rail, with another inline fuel filter.
* Installed an engine bay fuel pressure regulator.
The plan is to have the car strapped back down to the dyno by tomorrow morning. If the fuel pressure holds constant and does not drop, and the car still breaks up, then the kit will be pulled off and sent back to the vendor.

Chawkins, is all that really needed? Did the vendor tell you to do those fuel mods? What about rbj claiming he didn't mod any fuel system and still having stock injectors? I really do hope you get it sorted out bud.

Removed factory regulator and factory fuel filter.
Joncl, the vendor has not given us any feedback on what to do. I have done research along with BIP on our own, and tried to address all the problem areas. RBJ's kit and mine are different, so it is hard to compare why his runs and mine does not. I am not R&D'ing the kit anymore after this fuel pressure issue. It will be pulled off and sent back.

If you can keep the temps down get a 3.0L blower

I am using stock fuel system. The stock fuel injectors ran out at 11psi and 5800rpms. So we installed the Eurocharged 550 injectors and I'm at 14psi and holding to 6800rpms. Gonna go back to the track this week with 18" MTs and front Skinnies, full interior on 93oct. We are putting in a 3000 stall converter to see if I can get off the line faster. I'll post another thread soon with dyno pulls and other info. Sorry for the wait.

Don't know if that question was meant for me lol but I do think if you buy a product from a vendor and do everything as they say and then use 2 or 3 different tuners to get it to work and it does not work as advertised or agreed to, wouldn't they need to back up their product?
