bump, about to go install my injectors and fuel pump and switch to a new map.

Car starts ok now, bit rough to get up. Run about 14.6 at idle and get richer when i rev up to 3k, less then 30% throttle.

SC is in.
No belt slippage squeeks
All lines outta the way
Bypass blows nicely(6-7 threads exposed)
Cant tell if charge pipes are all sealed since bypass is always open

Injectors are in, and she ran rich, like really rich so i switched maps and now she idles at about 14.5 and then gets rich is i slowly accelerate. Whats the highest i should see on the wb under acceleration? I dont have the walbro in so i think it might run a bit lean since the pressure is lower. Going to try installing it one last time. Gotta eat first, starving!

Got a slight oil leak at the sandwhich plate plugs, going to ditch that tuesday. Gonna bring 5qt's of oil with me just in case. May swap it tonight tho, hate to have a leak, would only take a few mins to change the oil.
