    Default trying to start 5.3

    i am new here, got a 5.3ls gen 3, 82 mm turbo, 104 tb, with 80 lbs injectors, custom os upgrade ls1, before tuning engine would start and run
    pretty good, programed per the instructions, now it will kinda start but is so rich it doesnt want to run or idle, fill the garage with smoke in no time
    also has 3 bar map, , os is 0411003, i have looked at everything but i have no idea where i screwed this thing up, and help would be appreciated

    There are so many different 80# injectors.
    You need the data to be able to get the tune sorted out.
    Where did you get them?

    Your using a newer version of V8 that i am. Ill have to go find my other laptop to be able to open your tune.
