Fuel System Upgrade

Hello, I'm looking to upgrade my fuel system and I'm trying to decide which chip to get. From what I have read, the UltraChip just has several different pre-programmed settings and the TurboTweak chip gives the user more tuning options correct?

I am also looking for a scan tool and was looking at power logger or turbo link. I am leaning towards the turbo link scan tool as it seems to have great customer service, and the user interface looks nice.

I have talked to a few people and in regards to my goal of low 11's they suggested I get 60lb Mototron injectors along with a walbro gs340 pump/hotwire, and adjustable fuel regulator.

Only mods that have been done to my car are 3in downpipe, 3in exhaust, aftermarket gbodyparts.com headers

Any experiences/opinions/advice would be greatly appreciated.

I totally agree.
Scanmaster, and/or data logger is a must.
I have a 6o lb inj and TT chip that works well, but I am going to try Full Throttle's Extender Chip for the greater adjustability and see what happens.

BTW all those items you want plus the Scanmaster and Powerlogger are available through Full Throttle --who have great customer service.

Oh yeah I am personally a big advocate of getting the LS1 MAF w/ translator the stock MAFs are very fragile and can cause problems if they are rebuilt or slowly dying, I say take them out of the equation so you can do performance enhancments safely.
Even if your MAF works great I say take it off and put it on the shelf for future generations to be awed and insipred

Powerlogger gives way more info than does turbolink....good service there as well.

PL will allow you to log add ons like egt, wideband 02, pressure, etc beyond giving 20 samples per second rather than one sample every 1.4 seconds which can be dangerous as you crank the performance up.

Turbotweak or the Extender chip give much in the way of programability.
