Default car starts, but dies

Ive recently installed a greddy sohc kit on my d15b, the issue is when I crank the car it turns over just fine, but it then idles at like 100-200 rpms for about a min and then dies. If i press on the gas the car runs fine, I just cant sit steal or i have to keep pressing the gas for it to remain running. Whats goin on???

I had the same problem. Check your injectors. You might be running to lean.

how do youcheck your injectors, or how do you know if it running lean/rich without a gauge.

After further investigation, heres whats going on. When you crank the car, it turns over. But when you apply some gas you feel the motor stumbling the whole time, and when you let off the gas it idles at like 200 rpms and eventually dies out. Please help guys, this is getting so frustrating

Have you messed with the timing bent at all? do all 4 runners get warm after you get it to run for a second?
