        I ran outside in the cold and made a quick video(yes I'm killing the starter but I needed to make a video of it trying to start.

        I'm having to almost floor the pedal to even get the car to pop. and once it starts it takes almost half throttle to keep running.

          How much power are you planning to make? clean setup btw. I would say its tune related.

              put the stock injectors in there and try it, just to get it running,
              im not familiar with the war chip but maybe bypass that too,
              see if it will run essentially stock
              We're out there in here.

                It ran a few weeks ago on the stock injectors and this same tune. It really seems that the injectors are too big even though they are the recommended injectors.

                    well evidently the green 30lb volvo injectors are low impedance Guess I'll be buying some new ones.

                        I would not go that far. My dad had an 85 camaro w/ a very torquey 350 from an RV. The 700R4 got its output shaft ripped out I believe. This was newly rebuilt as well. OP, nice build.

                          yeesss. i like how u said im getting this stuff from ebay so deal with it.lol
                          other than ebay manifolds, they cost a lot.
                          What injectors are you going for now?
                          and do u still have stock fuel pump? maybe walbro 255 is needed. i read everything just now but i may have missed something.
                          btw how do u know which coil to buy? the only part im confused on is spark for my turbo? did u upgrade to the 8mm spark wires or are the the stock 7mm
                          m20 is plenty. im simply a drifter.

                            ooor could it be the MAF?
                            i did a quick ebay search for M20 maf's but only AFM's came up. cause u had the Miller MAF there for the first start up I think. Now that the WAR chip doesnt have its MAF there its still running for its dimensions. email miller and send em your map and i think they will straighten it out

                              The 700R4 is also one of the worst transmissions ever made.
