Is there a question in there?

If you are running lean under boost with an FMU 90% of the time its because the stock fuel pump cannot handle the higher than normal rail pressure.

Been there, done that.

This is the absolute worst thing you could do to an engine. Don't do it.

its my understanding that very few people like the blye box, BUT it probobly will be ok if used for 5 psi like the kit comes with. You might look into an afc hack or such.
