Default Cammed LS1 Question

hey guys. i had a motor built by texas speed and performance and i had them put in the 228R comp cam as well. and when i got it tuned the car keeps stalling at idol and i dont know why. it turns over fine and doesnt stall when sitting or at a complete stop but stalls when slowing down and turning the wheel as well. it has a stock fuel pump which im thinking mught be the problem bc im not getting the power it should at high speeds as well.

any suggestions would be great thanks

I doubt it would be your fuel pump. I would take it back to the tuner and have them look at it. That would be my guess as to where your problem is.

This is why I was guessing it's in the tune. When I first got my tune done for my cam, every once in a while when I let off the gas driving down the freeway, the car would die. My tuner came over and picked up the car, and had it fixed within a couple of minutes.

Did he only tune on thedyno or did he also drive it around and tune it?

Wot tuning is simple, a good tuner is separated by idle and part throttle tuning abilities.
