Turbo B16A fuel questions...???

First of all let me tell you a little bit of what I have:
1st Gen B16A, Turbonetics t3/t04 turbo, 8.8:1 JE pistons, Eagle Rods, turbo block guard, Hi-boost head gasket, Walbro 255lph fuel pump, 450 injectors, Aem adjustable FPR...
The problem that I am having is that I am running really rich at idle. I have already tried to adjust my FPR, also played with the VAFC. Also, sometimes during idle, it does this hesitation, like drop rpm really quick and then go back to normal idle. Anybody have a B16A built for turbo? I would like to know what kinda setup you have. Any information that you guys can give me will be very appreciated. Thanks....:silly2:

well you have to understand what youre running. at idle you have no boost and no matter how well tuned your fuel delivery is, you are not having enough air in the cylinders to compensate for the kind of fuel your system is putting out. damn i g2g ill elaborate later, but i hope that tells you something.

I heard that even engines that have a good management system still idle really rich............as long as there is enough fuel at open throttle...
what do you think about the idleing problem where it jumps up and down on a continuos basis...??:thumbup:

how much of a hesitation is it? does it stall? does it rev up high? but even then there could be many factors why it does this. especially in a turbo application. check for any vacuum leaks in your intake tract and also if youre running toooooo rich then that might be it too. but as we both said you will run rich at idle in almost all turbo applications
