so my car has been runnin great so far...just your typical hicups for a 6 port turbo....it still had its rich spots but the other day it got really bad...right beforethe secondary injectors kick on it gets reaslly bad...9:9 to 9:4 at 3K up till the secondaries kick on...then its fine...i dont know why it started this but its a recent NEW problem...the secondaries are fine as far as richness and it only starts at 3K RPM's...i have my safc turned to -40 right now at 3K and still get get it any leaner....i even changed the NE point on the SAFC...it was 3,600 i think and now i have it at 3200 and its still bloody rich...what is going on????
it just started getting really nice out if that matters??? from 40-50 ish to 60-70 ish...

I'd check the AFM
Clip an ohmmeter on the AFM & work the flap.
The resistance values should start around 150-200, the go up in steps to around 550-600 ohms as the door opens, then near the full open end of the stroke, it may drop back to 400.
It seems weird that the sweep is non-linear, but the 3 working AFM's I tested all did that.

To begin, I really wouldn't go yanking -40% out of your fuel map especially under load. Did the power change at all when this happened? Does it hiccup/do anything strange at that time?

Get a standalone? What do you expect us to do for you? It's not all that difficult, start with the normal crap (check every sensor, replace plugs, clean your injectors, etc).
