Car runs lean under boost :(

I hope that is everything to make it work good now. Thank God I finally got this all figured out. Thanks for everyone's help so far. No work for me tomorrow so I get to install right away. Will keep you guys up to date on the results.

To make it work well now... make it work well...

Well when I typed it, I was thinking the Taco Bell commercial:

Alright guys, sorry I hadn't updated in a while about my problem.

Picked up a true 12:1 Vortech FMU and didn't help my problem out still. Talked to some guys on 2GNT about it and I picked up a fuel pressure tester and hooked it up. I was told to pinch the return line of my FMU with a pliars to send the maximum amount of pressure the fuel pump could produce (which is suppose to be 120 psi, gauge maxes out at 100, so it should be pegged). The gauge only read up to 70 psi which led me to come to the conclusion the fuel pump can not pump out enough pressure for boost.

Just received the new fuel pump today and installed it all and VOILA! No more leaning out problems. I upped the boost to 6 psi and it stays rich on the gauge the whole time and pulls very nice. Thanks everyone for all your help on here as well. Time to save up for my new manifold
