Is my car uber flooded or something worse?
okay, i got my car running finally. but the stok FPR was busted and would not open to relive fuel pressure. but with a switch to the fuel pump, i could jimmy the switch while cranking and get the car to start. but it would not idle at all, i had to use the throttle to keep it above 80o rpms otherwise it would just die.
the TPS is good and set
i have no BAC, or any emissions. TB mod was also done.
car would still stall after warming up. also, it was running so rich that huge blue smoke clouds came out the tailpipes. and if i rev the motor to where the secondaries come on, the car would be pissed off until that extra fuel got spent.
so i got a aeromotive 13109 and still using the stock setup for the rails, just with the FPR being the aeromotive unit. i didnt have a fitting to use my Fuel Pressure gauge but i do have the screw out to the point where it should be at 40 psi (no vac line). now, here is the fun. car wont start now. i dont have the pump switch anymore because i replaced the sending unit with a working new one. the car is leaking fuel out of the turbo's exhaust. i figure its super flooded. i remove the plugs and cranked and omg the fuel jetting out. is it possible that the car had so much fuel from the first setup, it wont let it start with the proper setup? i am going to unflood the car hardcore tm. any thoughts?

sounds like the fuel lines are not setup properly, i have not seen a FPR stick closed before, though it may be possible i find it highly unlikely.
maybe you can explain to us in a little better detail how you have the fuel system set up to help out.
getting some fuel pressure readings also would be helpful.
