Well I went to the track after the PI intake swap. The car felt great but now traction is a problem again. I'll have to re-learn the launch I guess. I gained 2 MPH(93) , my 1/4 was 15.1's and my 60ft's went up to 2.3-2.6. After this my friend came over and told me that the car really left a gas trail and when he followed me home he said it nearly choked him out. I was wondering if anyone had a idea on how I can help lean it out a bit. I was going to mess with the fuel pressure, but I wanna see if I can play with it without having to buy anything for the moment, just wanna see if i can fool with it a bit. Any suggestions on what I can do? Anyone have this problem after the PI intake swap?

Do you have a tune on it? I noticed you have an aftermarket MAF in your sig - have you tried the stock MAF?

My stock one has a hole in it. Not sure how it got there but oh well. The C&L initially leaned the car out quite a bit, now it's running super rich. It's all getting replaced when I get back from deployment so I'm not too worried about getting a tune on it right now.
