why do you have the timing retarted so much? thats like 7 degrees right? how much boost are you running?

my settings are all out of whack now..i havnt got to drive it much with the snow outside..it will idle ok..but on boost or cruising sometimes my autometer A/F gauge will start going like crazy..i have the SMC plus version that just came out..it has three adjustment screws and an led status light.that will flash you what you have each rpm adjusted to...i am going to be swapping out my turbo shortly so i may just wait till its in and done before i really go at the adjusments..i dont want to spend all that time and have to redo the entire thing..but i also have a BBK 255lph fuel pump and there is no way i can get my fuel pressure that low..even with an B&M adjustable regulator..

try this mod to your FPR. I'm not for sure but the AEM regulator may have more return capacity. I drilled this hole in my friends car because it was running poorly after the fuel pupmp install. It worked very well. Just FYI a local Grainger store had the drill bit in stock and I used a dremel tool to drill the hole.

I took out so much timing to be safe. No need to break anything driving back and forth to work. After I get to a dyno I'll set it up to make more power. It just spins the crap out of the tires right now anyway.
