quick fix for running rich? no safc!!

[awd2gsx82]

Ok I just got my car up and running good after completing a 6-bolt swap. Now I have an auto awd and originally they come with small injectors. I have in it now 2g 450’s. And it is running real sluggish because it is to rich.

So my question, is there a way to lean it out a bit without a safc? If so could someone direct me to a link or how to? Thanks!!

Fuel pressure regulator?

If you are running a 2g ecu the 450's isnt your problem as the 2g's both auto and 5 speed came with 450's.

i was under the impression that they were smaller. i have no regulator. what else could be making it run sluggish?

 

[The_EE]

Bad o2 sensor, boost leaks.

will the secon 02 sensor missing cause it to run rich?

 

[The_EE]

Yes, the front o2 sensor is what tells the engine how the car is running and if it should add or remove fuel.

The second one wont cause that but it should be in the car as that is an exhaust leak right under the driver seat and not the safest thing.

Boost leak test?

Verify base timing?

Plug wires swapped?

2g auto=450's
2g manual=450's
1g auto=390's
1g manual=450's

second one is there, the wires are just broke. i will have to do a boost leak test, other than that the plug wires are right and i will run through the timing one more time but i am sure that is right on also.

thanks for all the help guys
