I have similar mods and haven't had any problems since we went with a larger fuel pump. So, I would look at the mechanics that were last done, and at the tune.
That was my last comment to him on the phone today... I told him I wasn't a mechanic, that's why I took it to Buckhead to let the "pros" take a stab. It ran flawlessly for 3.5 weeks... and it will run/idle, just very rough.

My apologies if this was already covered.
This is a VERY good possibility. I know when I tried to read codes on the car, I checked the "gauge" function on the DashDaq and it showed LTFT's at +2. So, that's pretty bang-on.
AFR's are in the 12.5-->11.5 range in open loop.

All the more reason I want him on here... he told me on the phone he has no ill-will towards me, and doesn't hold me responsible for the sh!tty timing... But I would still like for him to come on here and see everyone write what I've been saying for weeks... just as a point of affirmation.
