what ratio FMU are you running, how much boost, which injectors, what turbo kit, do you have a FPR gauge?

are you positive the inline fuel pump is even working? just fyi, i had the same setup and at 5psi w/o the inline i leaned out. it was fine at 4psi though. i ran 10-12psi w/ a 12:1 fmu and inline pump w/o leaning out.

is your inline pump working properly?

It's possible that the fmu got stuck, it's been known to happen. I'm not sure how you can check it w/ out a fpr gauge though.


I ran rich up to 10psi on my old DRAG set up.
