Default Boosted RSX - How do you know when the motor is flooded?

I installed a Walbro 255 lph intank pump last night...The car ran fine at first but then all of a sudden when I went to go WOT the car would bog pretty bad and my rpms wouldnt move...Eventually the car died out...When I went to start up again it was real rough and wouldnt start.....If I let the car sit there for some time, it would start up but eventually stall out again....

Im thinking I flooded the motor with fuel...i figured the stock regulator would be able to handle the new pump, but I was also thinking maybe I need to change some numbers in the emanage values to let the emanage know there is a much larger pump in there....

Any ideas guys?

the emanage is not going to require you to change anything with the larger pump...there is probably a problem with one of the injecters pulsing higher than expected...I had that problem when I first put on the Greddy kit. You need to check the resistance of each injector....also I wouldnt adjust any of the emanage unless you are on a dyno. I did that one time and messed up some things...the car ran like hell....I would just check the injectors.....the problem probably lies there.
