No power at full throttle

No power at full throttle
I own a 1992 Mustang GT convertible 5.0. I just rebuilt the motor in it and basically left the bottom end stock. I added Trick Flow twisted wedge heads, the Trick Flow Street upper and lower intake, Trick Flow 1.7 ratio rockers, F-303 Ford motorsports cam, 24lb injectors, Granatelli Maf sensor, 70mm throttle body, 190 lph BBK fuel pump, MSD 6AL ignition and coil and a Motorvation custom MVC-7777 computer chip. The car runs well and idles very well. The problem I have is that when I fully open the throttle, its like there is no power. If Iaccelerate regularly, it's fine, but when I floor it or put the gas pedal to the floor, it doesn't go. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions? Are the injectors too small? Seems like it's running lean, but I'm not sure. The plugs are not brown like they should be, they look a little white. Could thechip be causing it?
Thanks

RE: No power at full throttle
I did the exact same job 2 weeks ago....
The only thing that I did different was the cam...I used the TrickFlow Stage 1...and no chip.
Those injectors are perfect......but I do not know about the chip. Considering that is the only difference in the two jobs....maybe that is it.
From what I have read...the stock computer is just fine for the setup that you (we) have...
Althought I do not really know chips, try removing it and reseting your computer....and see what happens...

I'm also leaning towards the chip as my problem. I guess I'll try to run it without the chip and see what happens. I got nothing to lose, except the 400 bucks I paid for that stupid chip ( stupid if it's the problem)

I am not sure the time limit....(I think it is 30 minutes).....but after you remove the chip, unplug the battery so the computer will reset.....
Once again....I do not know sh*t about chips...but if it affects your computer....I would definitely pull the old Microsoft restart
