Default Got the Car Fixed and Added New Parts

I finally found my problem with my sensors. It was the A9L computer i was using. My car didnt like the A9L computer (went though 3 A9L's) so we put in a A3M computer and the car runs great. We had to back the fuel pressure down to 36 psi besides 40 psi bc it was running very rich. i could reset the tps to .883 and it runs like a dream now. Also i fixed the a/c it was the relay under the MAF.

The new parts i added are:

A3M Computer
New A/C Relay
New 6 pc. Projector Headlights
LX tail lights

Pictures will be added soon

New lights sound great. I'm looking forward to seeing those pics. Are the LX lights smoked or are they OEM?

why is your TPS set so low? also why do you have such low psi? if rich i would of went with more timing if it was possilbe, and what is a A3M. what years and models they come out of, im guessing you did a MAF conversion if so which kit did you use?

also without a tune a car can run rich

If it was a relay, Im guessing it just didn't turn on?

The A3M computer is a universal computer for our cars. The tps is low right now i rose it to .987 this morning. I already have the car's timing at 14* with 87 octane as it is so i decided to just lower it a little. Yes i did a conversion and i just used the maf conversion wiring not the harness like ford uses. Im getting the car tuned when i take it to the dyno.

is your maf harness 4 or 5 wires? also did you do the cruise control pins, how about the thermoactor pins? and how about the tranny sensor pins?

also why you running cheap fuel with a built motor?
