    Post the tune file.

    Put a fuel pressure gauge on it. One you can tape to the windshield so you can watch it while you drive.

    That's what everyone says and around here it's code for 'I haven't really checked it, I'm assuming'. Your MAF table is already doubled. Granted they do need recalibrating when you move them like in a swap vehicle, but with it being doubled I'd suspect low fuel pressure.

    You aren't logging MAF Hz or injector on time. Both are need for diagnosis and tuning.

    Also, about halfway through your scan you lose RPM. Looks like it was still running so must be a scanner glitch.

    thanks for reply
    i keep checking fuel pressure but will take a video
    maf was bought new but i am not a tuner by no means lol
    how do i add channels like hz or injector
    yes rpm justed stoped

    If the speed moves in park you got issues LOL

    Post a picture of the cold air intake and MAF location.

    will get a pic
    will also see if the vss/iss is pluged in backwards or not

    This is dead lean any time you are getting on it.

    This also sounds like ISS / VSS are crossed.

    could be also.. if the VSS wires aren't a twisted pair. VSS will read noise otherwise.

    Still very lean when you are getting on it.

    where should i go from here?
    i am going to try to get the fuel pressure gauge setup so i can see it
    no codes
    thanks againfor reply

    First step is checking and verifying that the fuel pressure is good at all times. Not just sitting still idling, but under power, moving, etc.

    FP is the #1 issue I see in swaps. #2 is probably trying to run it with open exhaust close to the O2 sensors. But I just want to hear it run and start tuning it. Well finish the build first.

    Yep and for me not just swaps it seems like everyone just ASSumes their vehicle has adequate fuel pressure. It's the "nah that ain't it" attitude.

    OEMs go to a lot of trouble to engineer and manufacture robust fuel systems in their EFI vehicles. DIYers usually don't when it comes to a swap.

    I agree but that still leads to people ASSuming everything is fine fuel system wise.

    Same thing applies to "all new parts" syndrome. "Fuel pressure is fine. It's a new pump, all new parts".

    "I opened the hood with it running and looked at the GzYcsFocusqp* chrome polished billet aluminum gauge I keep screwed onto the fuel rail and it was somewhere right around where it's supposed to be, so pressure isn't the problem."
