White plugs how am i lean
Ok Hes a lil info on setup.
95 gsr sock interals. Complete turbo kit with a garrett t28 turbo. I am about to go get tuned just was making just everything was cool so got on it once. I hit 7psi and held it for a 2nd gear run. At redline turned car off and coasted to a stop to read plug. I pulled them to find white tips on all plugs. I am lost because i am runnin 450cc dsm injectors. How am i lean on 450cc injectors and only 7psi.
Do you thyink the injectors are bad. I thought it was wierd that the car idles like stock. I do have a base chip but it idled fine on a skunk 2 all motor chip too. Fuel pressure is at 45 with vaccum line on.
What u guys think just and to make sure everything cool before i drive 2 hrs to get it tuned.

You don't have a wideband and your doing full throttle pulls? It may be a basemap but that doesn't make it save to go WOT. Buy a wideband, although its a basemap it may not be richened up enough in boost.

I did one pull to make sure it was boosting. The turbo was bad before and car wouldnt boost just had it rebuilt and wanted to make sure everythin was working before i drove 2 hrs to tuner. I wasnt out racin just one 2nd gear run.
Just found it wierd it idled so good with all that fuel

All it takes is one 2nd gear pull to destroy the motor depending on how lean or how much timing was on the map.
I do not know the condition of your motor, but that is not a wise choice to do a full throttle pull on a basemap. Basemaps are ONLY MEANT for you to granny drive the car to the tuner.
Anyone will tell you the same thing, get the car tuned ASAP.
