Welcome.

I'm assuming you're running all 4 after market injectors? Do you have any additional injectors? It could be the fuel line or it could be your oil.

Might it be bad tuning, perhaps? I've heard of Vtec gettin in the way of boost before.

I'd say its a problem with your vtec you need a controller for it and I'd recommend talking to the guys in the FI forum as soon as you can they have always helped me out with my questions.

What are the specs of the Turbonetics kit you are using?

What psi are you running? Does that kit have (or do you have) any fuel modifications, such as an FMU or some other fuel management devide?

You have an S-AFC or do you have an V-AFC? You said S-AFC, but I'm just making sure.

EDIT: And you have a single check valve?
