Well, everytime I've read about the S/V-AFC "hack" it's said to use a set of 440 or 450cc injectors, so that may be your problem. Read this page about it if you haven't already: http://www.thedropshop.tv/vafc.htm

you need bigger injectors, because -30% won't cut it, you can't run that rich, you need to be at no lower the -35% and then you won't throw a CEL. invest in some bigger injectors...once your run the car where you don't have to have to go below -35% then your set. 450cc or 440cc will do the trick. if you set the car w/ -35% right now, you won't throw a CEL, BUT you may be running to lean running w/ the 370cc's

You can drop the vafc down to -35%, and then increase your fuel pressure a bit to add a little fuel back. b
