Default Car runs like ****

hey guys let me know what u think and get some ideas of wtf is going on, had been boosting fine for a week with no problems other than smelling richness out the down pipe, so i get my exhaust installed 2.5 down pipe to a 3in all the way back and now the car chuggs at low rpm less than 3k anything over that it runs fine just to me dosent seem to be enough back pressure. my fuel pressure is set at 40 at idle. i just think that my basemap is running way to rich heres my set up
b16a2 stock comp
t3/t4 48.a/r hot side .70 ar cold side
jrc 8in
dsm450's
walbro 255
bmc log manifold and 35 tial mm wastegate
drag ic piping
hondata base map
p.s the wastegate is blowing during idle which i thought which supposed to stay close?
aslo threw a code 14 and 8 fyi

sound like you're running too rich, and i think you mean to say your bov stayps open, not your wg at least I hope so.
