a/f readings a little weird...???
Sorry to hear that.
I also use AEM wideband air/fuel gauge. My idle is silky smooth.
The air fuel display flutuate a bit at idle, it's about 14.3 +/- 0.2 (14.1 to 14.5),
which I think it's normal since my idle rpm needle doesn't move.
The AEM digital display is a bit too sensitive.

mine did idle around there at first. so your's perfectly normal
Kpierson: you mean my fuel regulator? it's is under the passenger side rear bench. as for fuel pressure gauge i don't have one so i'm not sure if i'm loosing pressure.
ttrank: i'm sorry to hear that as well, i may be in the same boat.
when i have time i need to take out the pump and regulator to check it out. i wish my tuner was closer so i could just take it to him.

The new regulator holds pressure after I turn the car off, and the car now starts much better.

Mine was turned down to ~38psi with my tune and that is where it sits now at idle. So far most people think it is the fuel pump. I'm going to try a new one of those first and go from there.
Quadcam had similar problems with his car, and it was his fuel pump. He ended up disconnecting his fuel line and pumping gas in to a bucket for a minute and calculated the rate of the pump. The rate was much lower then it should have been so he replaced the pump.
