Re: tpi tunning help

are you running stock 22 lbs? Try 24lbs from an LT based motor... if you run any more then 10% over stock for injectors.. you need to reprogram!

Re: tpi tunning help

its a 350 right. whats your timing at. is your hypertech chip a thermomaster. do you still got the hypertech's ###'s off the box or chip? i think 56 psi is too much. try 48, and the injectors should be #24 for the 350. mine are 19#s for my 305
