Default Removing Utec?

Just want to make sure that I can just take it out and thats it. Is this correct? No detuning required or anything like that right? Thanks for the help.

By the way its for sale. (Link in sig)

No you probably shouldn't your running 440cc injectors and a walbro you're going to rune insanely rich at partial and full throttle idle might not be too bad though.

I was running the injectors and fuel pump before I had the utec. It was a little sluggish but it ran fine otherwise. I'm just wondering if the stock computer will just work as normal.

Not sure if the factory ecu can adjust far enough to keep 440 injectors from running way rich. I kinda doubt it though. Do you have an afr gauge installed?

Hmmm, stock injectors are 290... Personally I wouldn't try to run 440 injectors/ pump on a factory ecu.... But that's just me.

To answer your question, yes the stock ecu will work just fine. Your car won't run the best with the 440's and walbro, but it will run. Why not just swap out the injectors and fuel pump to stock?

if you wnna see how your car will run just put the utec on map selector witch "0" which is stock mode you will run extreammly rich partial to full throttle. at onepoint i was doing the same and was running 9 /f partial throttle... your car will run but run like ****.
