WooT! got my car running right, here's what my problem was.
some of you might remember me from this thread.
https://www.rx7club.com/microtech-111/need-help-tuning-lt-10s-anchorage-alaska-anyone-want-take-vacation-718040/
I was having some problems,
but I finally got everything figured out,
and got my car running great!
Just in time for opening weekend at the track!
These were the 3 causes of the problems I was having:
1.) I made the mistake of buying Crap venom injectors off ebay.
They caused massive flooding and an engine fire.
they were leaking really bad, and filled my engine with gas.
I should've been more careful, but luckily that damage wasn't bad.
I replaced those with some Sard injectors, and pitched the venom injectors in the trash.
2.) the wiring was frayed inside the rubber block on the first CAS I was using.
this was causing rpm errors, so I switched to a different CAS.
3.) I had the vacuum line for the microtech's map sensor hooked up to the wrong nipple.
It was showing boost but not Vac, so the fuel was way off. causing it to flood.
I'm just didn't notice until after flooding it out a few times and wondering wtf,.. haha..
I'm so happy I figured this out
I just drove my car for the first time in over a year!
Thanks again to rx72c for the help in the other thread!

Well the nipple on the side of the manifold is too irregular(closest to exhaust).
The Nipples on the alternator side, the top one to me seems alittle delayed, the next one down did not register vaccum with me. Bottom one seemed to give best response.
The back 3(can be 2), the big one is for omp vac, the small one can be used but the front one i use seems to give better response and tune(more stable vacs and boost).
