Rich And Retard

Hey guys I am constantly getting R&R in my car car feels sluggish and wont boost over .6bar, the only mods I have are Exhaust and the boost restrictor removed running around 14psi. It seems to happen infrequently and I cant seem to Identify exactly when its occurring. I don't boot the car around alot and it can happen even when I am cruising hardly using the right foot. I had the car on the dyno and revealed no leaning problems, They also checked codes and no fault codes were found.

From my understanding it will run in R&R mode if the AFM max out or if there is knock. Where can I start in identifying my problem as its not occurring on the dyno??? So possibly fuel issue, AFM gone.

I have a power fc going in soon hopefully and later a set of -7's. I was thinking about plugging in the FC to see what knock levels I was getting but Am really worried about causing damage and want to get it tuned first. Also I can view the AFM values on hand controller to help too?

I would really love to get this sorted before it goes in to get tuned, where should I start?????????????

i tried swapping boost solenoids, which didnt make any differance for me. I'll probs just get a power-fc as that seems to fix the problem.

Yeah I have Power fc (not installed yet) but my delema is to get it tuned after turbo install (once) or tune before turbos and install turbos at the end of the year (twice). Trying to get price for inital tune spose $600 then retune after turbos $??????? I will be happy to spend another 2-$300 if retune but if its another $600 then I may as well wait. I thought the stock AFM would handel the power easily I had it on 4wd dyno and 192awkw, AFM must not crap themselves at this power level.
