I put a remapped Enjuku ecu, z32 maf, and 550cc injectors on my car.

I have the walboro fuel pump, and S-AFC.

I cant get the car to lean out. Ive tried the s-afc on 2 in 2 out, and 0 in 0 out. And it only seems to adjust air flow when its in 2 in 2 out, but when I try to lean it out the car bogs down.

So its not leaning it enough, the pugs are fouled black, and I can only cold start it with starting fluid.

Im still running stock fpr. Could this be a major factor to the rich problem?

The car also misfires cruising at above 3k rpm.

:help

flyingchicken is right...having all these mods, you should be boosting pretty high to accomdate the excess fuel.

I have a BB T-28 and Ill be boosting 16-17 psi at the track.

But the car should not foul out plugs at idle. The new ecu should be taling care of the problems of having big injectors.

Im gonna check the psi at the fpr tommorow, I think it might be sticking.

Im ordering a aftermarket fpr this week.

The fuel pressure regulator should be fine I have a skyline pump in my car and run the stock regulator. Can you try the stock ecu again? If not is the chip for the 62 ecu or E5. I have noticed some variations in fuel maps. Good luck. call if you need anything.

I measured the fuel pressure and it was at 50 psi with vaccum off that is 10-12 psi too high.

You are supposed to measure fuel pressure at idle without vacum.
