Also I did reset the IAC, and set the TPS at .054. I have rasied the idle to 8-900rpm in park, and in drive its about 750rpm.

Re: W.O.T. PROBLEM!

Well I e-mailed Racetronix where I got my injectors from asking them about fuel pressure. They said I should be good at 43.5PSI, I have mine set at 45-46PSI. So I'm going to lower down to 43PSI and see if that fixes the problem.
