I recently put a supercharger on my 91 fox and I'm trying to get it tuned. It's a 331 with a procharger with intercooler. I have 42 lb injectors with a calibrated 76 mm c&l maf. The problem is that it starts off great but at about 4500 or so rpm the A/F ratio goes lean. I checked the voltage on the maf and its about 4.7 Volts at that rpm. Any help would be greatly appreciated. It's getting about 10 lbs of boost at that rpm.

Sounds like you may be pegging the maf though I find that unlikely if you are running a 76 mm C&L calibrated for 42 lb injectors .... which tube do you have in the C&L maf?? ... what fuel pump are you running? What is your fuel pressure at the rpm it starts to go lean? I assume you are running 93? what kind of power are you looking to make? Has your car been tuned?
Edit:
Below is the stock mass air curve in the ecu. You can see in the stock curve, any voltage above 4.76 volts is treated as the same amount of air flow. So unless your car is tuned, the stock ecu is going to try to give the car the same amount of fuel for any voltage above 4.76 even though you are flowing more air and start to go lean. Also the maximum voltage for the maf in the stock tune is 4.9 volts so you are very close to that.

First off what are you using to measure your A/F ratio?
