I finally installed my SSX metal intake, but seem to have lost power on the top end. I have a lot more bottom end now. but for some reason the top seems to be slacking. It may be to much air and not enough fuel though. I also have the internal air horn that I need to put install.

According to the website the airhorn is suppose to be for N/A anyway. I'll try this in the morning.

Or could my problem strictly be fuel considering I still have the stock injectors and fuel pump. That is the 14 lb injectors that I am using. Mods listed below, and the chip is not dynoed as of yet, waiting to get stall converter first. Just needed to get rid of the rev limiter.

Side note, right before the chip my check engine light was on and the cats were below threashold, usually means the cats are getting clogged up. Could this be my problem as well?

Please define safe mode. The rear o2's have been deleted from the computer by the chip, so the computer reseting the timing won't happen.

Yes I used a gasket on both sides of the engine. I install everything myself including the cam in it. As far as vacumn leakes, I barely have anything left of vacumn, deleted the EGR and evap canister.

I did install the airhorns that seemed to help. I'm going to go with a bigger fuel pump and see if that helps.

I'm planning on getting a Dyno tune done in Oct. soon as I get my stall converter

Fuel is the problem. I borrowed my friends AFPR and his gauge. Bumped the pressure up to 50 and my car loves the extra fuel. Just need to get the bigger fuel pump and injectors and everything should be fine. I'm going to be getting 24 lber's though.

You all say that 24's are way to much, but on V6power there telling me to go with 42's. The link is below.

Yes I do plan on going supercharged. That's the main reason why I bought the intake. Plus there were only 10 made.
