Got a boost gage? Wideband?

also if your running a 12:1 disc in ur fmu, im guessing its rising to a lot more than 50 like you said, do you have a gage on that or something? and the 255 pump could be making it even worse because it could be overpowering the regulators.. just my guess but i bet its going rich..

do you know how much boost you are running? what turbo setup?
