Default New setup. big problems!!! HELP!!!

84mm benson sleved LS/Vtec
Je 9:1 pauter rods
skunk2 valvetrain minus cams
victor X intake mani
skun2 70mm TB
presicion SC63
880cc injectors

so after 4 months of waiting I finally put it all together and dropped in the car. I get it all connected go get a basemap and crome put in on the ECU. Come home and fire it up. started right up. But then died, so did it again. Starts up but will not stay alive unles you pump the gas. It drops too low to try to catch itself and dies. It sounds like a huge vaccum leak. But I tightened the **** outta everything. Only throwin 2 codes IAT and some automatic transmission lockout solinoid. went over everything i cant figure out why the thing wont stay alive. Any help or questions please feel free to ask

Did you fix and clear the codes? IAT sensor code will throw the car into limp mode and it will shut off.

Otherwise yeah, the basemap isn't doing you any good.

well fixed all the codes but still not staying alive. i now know that it has to be the base map. i am going to have it towed to the exhaust place and have them do the down pipe. then off to the tuner!

Its because you need some way of getting the fuel right to idle...

without a wideband or a dyno, you might as well try to navigate BLIND down a busy street during rushour traffic...
