Well I don't know what is going on.

I finally got a minute to work on the car. I connected the boost controller back and unscrewed the knob to just shy of the lowest boost setting. I also changed the fuel filter.

I took the car for I drive, and the first 3 pulls went great with the car boosting to 8 psi. Then it went back to bogging once I hit boost.

If I accelerate at a normal speed or if I peg it, the car bogs at boost. If I accelerate super slowly, it will build boost all the way to redline.

At wide open throttle, my afr is 13.5. I should be at 11.8, right? Am I in danger of blowing up my engine if I run it this lean?

I didn't disconnect the arm from the wastegate, but it did open and close when I moved it back and forth.
