    LS9 injectors on LS7 engine

    Hello,
    I know it has been discussed many times and I went through many threads about that, but once I did swap LS7 injectors for LS9,
    I went into troubles. Because I swapped more potentialy troublesome items on my car at the same time, I just want to rule out
    some of these. So here is my situation:
    I had:
    LS7, LS7 injectors, stock intake, stock rails, stock throttle body
    Now I have:
    LS7, LS9 injectors, LSXR intake, FAST rails, 102NW throttle body.

    Poblem is that when I stitched together maps for my setup with LS9 injectors, my STFT went over 25% so I suspected my data.
    I went back to previous software setup for LS7 injectors and still, my STFT is around +9-10%. I wouldn't believe, it's possible
    to run lean with LS9 injectors on LS7 data, so I suppose I have vaccum leak somewhere (I tried it just on idle, not WOT),
    but I just want to rule out the most obvious problems. I don't expect that LSXR intake, nor the 102NW TB would cause such high
    deviation to MAF calibration as I did a few these in past and never had a problem.

    Is there anybody, who can check my data for LS9 injectors that they aren't completelly off, please?

    best regards, Filip

    Ls9s work fine is ls7s, use them for flex fuel z06s before

    ok, I've put back the LS7 injectors and the same issue. +20% STFT, so it's not about injectors... I'm going to find the vacuum leak
