    and idles high the rpms will randomly hang at 2500 i am new to tuning so im not sure what tables i need to change
    it has a 5.3 ls
    longtube headers
    a knockoff holley efi 92mm intake
    and a 92mm tb with stock iac and tps

    You have a injector circuit code. Usually means bad injectors or one unplugged.

    Those intakes and throttle bodes are very bad about vacuum leaks and poor fitting shafts/blades

    i knew about the injector code but i had the injectors checked and a noid light on the wiring and it all checks out soo im not sure. im saving up for a new set of injectors and a new throttle body but i dont have the funds at the moment. i was just wanting a more experienced tuner to look over and see if anything big stands out that way i dont melt a piston!

    ps: thanks for the info

    Pull the fuel rail out with injectors still attached. Place paper towel under each injector and cycle the key, that will at least show you if all the injectors are injecting. Have a helper cycle the key and you can watch them do their thing to see if one is obviously out to lunch.
