He's running AFC hack so he should have injectors... Maybe one of them is seized up, but not enough info to make that determination...

Re: (SLIMJIMsi97)
what fuel pump?
And you cant tune with your air/fuel ratio gauge unless it's a wide band. If it's just hook up to your stock o2 sensor it's worthless. It's only accurate enough for a bone stock car, it can only read accuratly close to atmospheric pressure (14.7:1) since you run richer when you go turbo (12.0:1 +/- a little) it cant accuratly readd the air fuel ratio. Mine reads the same (2-3 bars into the green) at 12.1:1 air fuel ratio as at 10.0+:1 ratio (still 2-3 bars into the green). It reads the same if i'm exreeeeemly rich or just perfect. I learned that by tuning my car with a wide band o2.
