i suggest you get rid of your fuel setup immedialtey ..

you must have a boost leak, or your turbo is too small.

probably a boost leak for sure.

ditch the check valve/FMU bullshit, put your fuel pressure back to stock, get some dsm 450's, and talk to xenocron about getting your ECU chipped and basemapped.
