Secondly...
retard game...? Well apparently I havent blown my engine yet. If you want to give me some money so I can get my car tuned, be my guest but what the hell do you want me to do? Click my heels together 3 times and wish my car was tuned?

the car only runs lean under any kind of boost pressure, and since I am not going to go above a few psi until I get the problem fixed, my motor is not blown...

The car definately starts to throw a P0171 "System Too Lean" code if I hit too much boost so how is my car not running as lean as I say it is...?

Geez...
maybe a possible o2 sensor problem. i know with my civic when i was ls turbo i threw a code like that all the time system to rich and system to lean. changed my o2 sensor and it never came back on again.
