Default finaly got my turbo on has a few ?s need some help

ok my set up is b16 sir1 t3 air research turbo, eclipse 1gbov, 450 dsm ingectors and smc+ i have an msd btm bt its not hooked up yet. ok when im driving the car it feels slugish underboost. and i can;t really feel a differance in power than before i was boosted. do u hve to much fuel going in and its causing it to be sluggish? also when i let of the gas or im coasting in 5th the air/fuel meter goes all the way down to lean. what could cause that and how do i fix it? thanks

Got a leak in boost? Do you have a boost gauge to check?

the reason why ur A/F ratio goes to lean when u let off is because u aren't pressing the gas
( had an autometer one, and it does the same thing )

if you running sluggish you maybe running rich since you have a pretty good size injectors

well i found out sense my speedo still isn;t working my ecu is in limp mode so its running extremely rich all the time. im ganna take it to the dealer and have them figure it out. if i fix the speedo and have no codes i should be able to tune the smc+ and fix the air/fuel ratio and get some power out of it. im almost done with my intercooler so as soon as i get the speedo fixed ill be running around 8psi.

thanks for the help
