Alright I just went to a shop they said my cars runnnig extremely lean,I'm having wastegate problems, and I got in anaccident. I'm not sure what to do first. I just bought a boost gauge, mechanic suggested a a/f ratio gauge, but im not sure if its worth it w/out the wideband o2 sensor, or if i even need it. I was also thinking about getting the Apexi afc im just not really sure what's first. the accident that can wait no use of lookn good if it doesnt run. Thanks

How do you know your car is running lean??

You car runs rich from the factory and with those few mods it's still running rich.

I took it to the mechanic, he said that its running lean because of the smell and the way its driving. No popping or stuttering only when accelerating slowly, but popping and stuttering under wot. As he says,it means its running lean. It's not plugs/wires/or injectors. He told me to get a a/f gauge asap.I dont know whether to believe him and get that or get an a/f with wideband 02 or AFC or what? any help?

I'm sorry but I think your mechanic plays with himself

Go to a mechanic with an exhaust gas analyzer.

Here's your exhaust gas analyzer. Probably cheaper than your mechanic too.
