I can't change the oil anyways (neighboorhood rules)
I would have to move! Does turning down the boost-a-pump lower the initial psi? I would turn it down.It may have caused the problem. You shouldn't even need the boostapump at your power level.

Thanks. And thanks to everyone for your help. I'll let you know what I find out tomorrow at my mechanics (my mechanic loves me because I do most of the work, I just use his tools, and he still charges me!!)

Well, as it turns out, my plugs were all pretty screwed up. The were covered in soot from running rich. The problem was coming from cylinder two, the plug was completely destroyed, and was loose!!! Swapped them out with new HT0s and things seem to have returned to normal...well, normal for my car. The cold start idle is still weird but I think thats from the tune.

What about the 80psi fuel pressure and the drop in pressure. I'd guess if your injectors weren't leaking then your stock fuel pump can't hold 80psi whichis why it slowly dropped down to 60.

Did you have the oil sampled and see how much gas was in the oil? Pretty tough on bearings.
