you have all that stuff done or you are getting that done?
If you had that all done maybe you should get a tuner to tune for all the changes. Cam and heads pretty much need a good tune to maximize them.
What cam did/are you getting? -
well I checked your site and noticed that you have HP tuners. So I guess you have that covered, maybe work on the tuning some more to work better with the mods.
Or maybe your nitrous bottle ran out...Comment

Look for Knock Retard. That will kill your power every time. Use HP Tuners and see if it is KR.2001 Firebird 3.8L V6 M5,<br />It once had....<br />NX Nitrous Wet Kit, ZZP X-P Hot Cam, <br />3.42 LSD, Pacesetter Headers, <br />36# Injectors, HP Tuners<br />322 RWHP, 379 RWTQ<br />13.596 @ 102.56 w/100 shotComment

Here is what you need to do. Log a "Run" with a few wide open throttle sections. Now save the scan and then open the log file. Bring up the histogram and click on the Knock Retard tab. Now right click on the table and choose "Max Value". If any values are over zero, you have KR.
What to do about it if you do is a whole other probelem. But for starters, just find out if you have it.2001 Firebird 3.8L V6 M5,<br />It once had....<br />NX Nitrous Wet Kit, ZZP X-P Hot Cam, <br />3.42 LSD, Pacesetter Headers, <br />36# Injectors, HP Tuners<br />322 RWHP, 379 RWTQ<br />13.596 @ 102.56 w/100 shotComment

There are lots of things it could be but start with the most likely. Once you get a log, send it to me and I will check it out.

the injectors wont necessarily fix it. You need to tune the computer. Especially before you even attempt to spray it with the new injectors.<b>Black</b> 1998 Pontiac <i>Firebird</i> A-4 swap<br />271.4rwhp/259.4rwtq NA<br />13.30@102.44 <br /><a href=\"http://www.freewebs.com/wickedsix98\" target=\"_blank\">www.freewebs.com/wickedsix98</a>Comment
