Default Too much fuel?? 12:1 FMU w/walbro

Right now i have a 12:1 fmu and a walbro 255 hp in the tank and i am wondering if i have too much fuel going into the motor. My setup is a stock d15b7 with a TD04L. At about 3-3.5k it will sometimes bog/hesitate alittle and not wanna go any higher, RPM wise. Cuz other times its fine and doesn't do it at all especially in 1st gear. Could this be too much fuel?

do what johnny does, air pressure regulator (from an air compressor) between fmu and signal line, control how much pressure the FMU sees.

they all pretty much nailed it... its a piece of ----... straight up... if u can't afford real management. why are you turbo? a new motor is gonna cost more then real management. funny thing is a chipped ecu for ur setup cost as much as an fmu...
