    Yup.

    He hasn't checked fuel pressure yet. It's on the to do list. He's been running this combo for years with no major problems. I think he's ordering the diagnostic & editing software. That should help narrow down the problem. This car runs 14 flat on a good day. I think it should have mid 13's in it. The person he bought it from never tuned it after rebuilding with after market injection, cam, headers, etc. I think the ECU is confused with the new parts. It runs fairly good when it's cold, but runs bad when it's hot so it must be a closed loop problem some place. After guessing wrong a couple times, he's decided to get the software before buying any more parts.
