Super slow idle...

So I recently had a build done on my engine by Pina Motorsports, and once I got the car back it idles MAAAAD slow, like around 570-620 rpm. Seriously, the thing sounds like a deisel. I'm not exactly sure how they hooked up the portfueler - they were apparently unfamiliar with that thing, and when the car is on not only does it idle slow but the exhaust is white and smells like someone is pouring gasoline out of the tailpipe...

I'm not currently co-located with my car (I work overseas) but if anyone has any ideas, please feel free to forward them.

BTW, the engine:

J&E pistons, eagle rods, HKS 272 cams, Hahn Super20G, Hahn portfueler... custom 3" exhaust (no cat) and intercooler piping....
 
Have someone take the car back and tell them to do their job OMG

Oh yeah...you should update your profile when you get a chance :thumb:
 
from you description sounds like you already know what the problem is. It is obviously running to rich. did you change out your primary injectors? If not, seems the portfueler was incorrectly installed. check the 1:1 fpr and see which fuel line its installed on, and make sure you factory fpr is not on at the same time.
