You need aftermarket injectors (get some DSM 450s they are like 100 bucks) also get a walbro 255 they are cheap too like 100-120, then get it tuned, see how it runs then, i bet its waaaaaaay better

You need a tune. That is your problem. Not feeding enough fuel for your motor

Wrong he still needs a tune even with new injectors and a new pump. A car will run fine while the engine is cold because it idles higher and is burning more fuel. Once it warms up and the ecu goes into closed loop then it will start to run like **** if it does not have a tune. The ecu will not read the new injectors unless it is corrected on the ecu itself by a tuner.
