ok i need some help i have installed a 20g turbo, turbo xs type h bov, act 2600 clutch, profec-b b/c, rc 550cc injectors, walbro 255lph fuel pump, stillen adjustable fuel pressure regulator. when i put on the injectors and afpr it ran better but i could feel it starving for fuel but then i installed the fuel pump and when the turbo spools up the power dies and it just loses power. now with the fuel pump i lost the spacer that came with it that goes on the fuel fitting below the o ring and plastic seal so i used another o ring. i dotn know if this is the problem of what. but it started doing this after installing the fuel pump. i am getting 38 psi of fuel to the rail what psi shoudl i put to it? i have no clue and also wta the hell do i do abotu a logger or air fuel controller. will that fix my problem if so how the hell do i know how much fuel to put to it in 500 rpm increments. how do i knwo what will work the best? it seems a little advanced for me but no one has explained it to me in detail. i have never played with one. i am a bolt on type of guy. i want to bolt it on and go. somebody tell me what i need i am sick of this car! ugh i have all the parts on it for the car to have massive potential i just need one cruical thing to fix it. i dont know if my computer is not reading this or what. if i need a logger or air/fuel controller will someone please explain to me how to use them and which is the cheapest and best ones to go with. i just want my car to run right. i want to know what to buy that will fix my car and make it run bad ass and i am sick of spending all this money with no results! please help!
 
Your link is broken by the way.

You should have all the supporting mods before you added hte injectors. The cheapest thing you are going to need is a piggyback afc. APEXi S-AFC are like 280 dollars right now. A logger is used to tune your car. It is a great tool to tune your S-AFC.
 
but i could feel it starving for fuel
Let me know how you "feel" it starving for fuel. Maybe then I won't need my fuel pressure gauge.

i am getting 38 psi of fuel to the rail what psi
At idle that's correct. Just be sure it rises 1:1 with boost.

it seems a little advanced for me but no one has explained it to me in detail. i have never played with one.
NOW you say this after all those mods and a 20G?

i am a bolt on type of guy. i want to bolt it on and go. somebody tell me what i need i am sick of this car! ugh
Then get a Honda and live with low power. 99% of DSM guys wish they could just bolt on and go but that ain't gonna happen with anything capable of high horsepower. It's 20% parts and 105% tuning!

i have all the parts on it for the car to have massive potential i just need one cruical thing to fix it
The crucial thing you need is tuning and unfortunately you can't just bolt that on either. You have to learn it then apply it properly. That's what separates the heroes from the posers!
