You definitely need a tune when changing injector size. What are your current and future mods?

Some early 2001 MY engines have the orange 19lb/hr injectors--the pink ones are 21lb/h...

I assume you are going f/i? Otherwise why 38lb/h injectors?

Put a vortech V-2 supercharger kit on it and they came with it, having a huge fuel dump problem right now though, found about 2 quarts of fuel in my crank case. I need to tune it but as we all know it's expensive, i just want to get it ont eh track once before i sell it.

So you tried to start an engine with a blower, bigger injectors, and a difference MAF I am assuming....without a tune...

Well most people change MAFs when they put a blower on. I am amazed that your mechanic started your car

He didn't know it was going to need a tune and honestly neither did I. Nothing got messed up thank god, but i do need the tune bad, but i need the money to do it worse, then i can sell my baby.
