sounds like a problem with the wideband, what brand is it? it may need free air calibrated or you have a leak in your exhaust

i re calibrated it and its still the same. umm i dont know whats going on. its a brand new walbro fuel pump and new fuel filter i mean everything has only about 3000 miles on it. i do know that my car runs rich while boosting. and the last couple days i have boosted a bit. so im wondering if the large amount of fuel messed the o2. the o2 sensor is a bosch ls17025. i dont know where to buy a new sensor locally
