I didn't mean to imply that upping the boost would help his a/f at idle, I was more talking about the fact that he has 650 injectors instead of the 630 that the car is tuned for. A short conversation was had with ajp about this and they themselves said this would make it run rich, but it was a precaution they took against it leaning out in any way. The only time it does lean out is in 6th, which is only used for economy so that doesn't bother me at all.
It's odd though because it's only at idle and even then it only is around 10.5 when he first starts it up. When it warms up a bit (about 5 bars) it still runs rich, but only around 11.4 or so. When under boost runs right around the same.. 11.4. I don't know what it would do with the 630 injectors, but I would think that difference in size would easily make up for the richness.
I think now would be a good time to make sure that everyone knows that I in no way claim to be a mechanic.. I'm learning about all of this as it happens with his car so any input is greatly appreciated (as long is it's not one line posts that say **** ajp, cuz that doesn't help at all).

I spoke with esx005 and he mentioned that he had reset his ecm as well as has not changed his plugs as of yet. He should be doing these few things over the next week or. But we have spoken with him / and are more than happy to speak with him if he calls again.
