Default More fuel??!

Alright so I just installed my new Industrial injection stage 2 80horse injectors. And here's my question... I think my idle may be lower? I thought it was 1k but now it's like 800. And when I coast through town and kinda step on the throttle it seems like it wants to die? And when I mash it doing wot it kinda sputters at first then runs fine.. Is that a sign of I messed something up? Or need more fuel. Or afc tuning?

Anyone?

I would say at least 45 at idle.... have heard higher .... not the expert on this exact subject ........ but it as all the symptoms of low to no fuel pressure ..... put a guage on it and report back ...
