Default Stupid CEL!!!

So i've been turbo with a greddy kit and aftermarket intercooler+ blow of valve. Using greddy blue box as a temporary management for now until i get hondata. But just a fews minute ago, i got a 45 check engine light, which say running too LEAN or RICH. I difinitely know that im running EXTREMELY rich because im burning gas like crazy, My question is would running too RICH damage my engine. I know that it will hurt the performance but what i care about is my engine blowing up. Could running too rich cause it. or is there anyway i can lean the fuel out a little???

Search a bit if you haven't already, I know there are a couple of topics on this already.

But from what I remember it won't hurt your motor running rich. just bad gas mileage. A bad O2 sensor will cause your car to run rich, check that. good luck.

I was searching and some people say you can get denotation from running too rich, which i think is wrong but is it true. Im just making sure.

And i think that the 255lp walbro fuel pump is aiding the blue box in extremely riching me out LOL.

Running overly rich isn't safe at all. Running a little rich won't hurt anything and is much safer than running a little lean.
