stock injectors???.. that'll do it. Those injectors can't give your engine the fuel it needs to keep up with the forced induction. You have about 26lb injectors now. You need atleast 30lb.s

Do you have a chip as well?

Oh man, that is going to blow.

I hope that shop didn't suggest using stock injectors, Natex brought up a good point about your chip...

Do NOT touch the timing....

Absolutely DO NOT touch the timing. If you are running lean as it is (you definitely are) and you bump up the timing, totally kiss your motor goodbye.

Go with 30lb+ injectors and stop driving your car until you get them. I cannot BELIEVE that shop installed a blower on stock injectors...

Call whoever you got your SC from and find out whats best.

Plus... a hypertech can not tune for injectors... you need a Diablo Preditor programmer or custom burned chip. Timing isn't your problem.... you should have found this site before you put the blower on...

What is the make of your SC?

You can't use stock injectors with a blower! You are running far too lean. You have to use 91 or higher all the time.

I wouldn't drive it until you find out what size injectors you need.
