First off, your baseline fuel pressure is too damn high. Stock pressure is about 40-42 without the vacuum line attached IIRC. That idle AFR is actually not that bad. As long as its not knocking, you're saving gas. As far as it going rich to 10.6, it probably needs a tune bad since it had a GT3076 and now you have a stock turbo on there. What computer are you using? Shoot me a PM if you have more questions...

Well, stop wondering why it doesn't run properly if you haven't got retuned yet. That's why it doesn't run properly. And no, the fuel pressure isn't helping.

The vacuum should be around 18-20 if its below 18 you might have a slight boost/vac leak. I know on my old 240 the vacuum was reading 15 and I went back and tightened all my ic hoses and checked all the vacuum lines. After I did that it was back up to 19.

Sounds about right. As Fab stated also, a tune will help you out greatly O.P.
