Default sc300 w/ 2jzgte Running lean

I have a 93 sc300 with the 2jzgte swap, and I am running lean. the no1 o2 sensor is reading lean, so it is working, i have an aftermarket fuel pump and have done the 12v mod. Everything seems to be working except i am running lean, and cant figure it out. the only modifications i have done performance wise is an intercooler kit, and fuel pump. can someone please help me figure it out, or give me some trouble areas to diagnose
Thank you,
Josh Graham

how do you know you're running lean? do you have a wideband installed? are you throwing engine codes?

Don't use that narrowband reading to get your A/F. Get a wideband, or go to the dyno for a little bit, just to see where you're at.

Really? A narrowband a/f gauge won't tell you anything besides whether the car is in open or closed loop. Throw that thing away and get a wideband o2.

looking over the vaccum diagrams, seems I am missing a vaccum controler right before the fuel pressure regulator, also when i remove vaccum before the fuel pressure reg, it runs rich at idle, and lean in boost, so unless someone says otherwise I am going to assume that missing this piece is not helping my fuel problem. i am also seeing some open vaccum hoses elsware not sure where they go, so i am currently going over my diagrams. I am also using the factory sc300 MAF sensor, not sure if that is causing any problems, but according to my diagrams and my research, the supra uses the o2 sensors to controle air fuel, the MAF is pretty much just there to be there. So please lend me your knowledge!
