first thing the air fuel gauge is not accurate and then get a wide band O2 sensor and then the injectors, the LS injectors will do but they will cut out when at higher boost, the pulse width modulated signal from the ECU is somewhat interupted there lacking the fuel that the turbo needs.
YOU NEED MORE FUEL

Its not a question of how "new" the A/F guage is... Mine was brand new too...

Its just not accurate..

I know.... Sucks, but its the only way.... Dyno shops have a wideband that goes up your tail pipe... A place in Orlando by me charges $75 for an hours with the Dyno and using there wideband.

Or you could spend $300...

Sucks I know, but just b/c widebands are expensive doesn't mean your A/F gauge is right ( mine is WAY oFF ).

nnnnarrghhhhhkkk!!

a/f gauges are a waste of time unless you have the right o2 sensor for it.

i didn't even bother getting one. the only gauge i might get to tell my mixture would be an EGT gauge, but i don't know where i'd put it.. ohwell.
